The world of Marc Chagall and his myth within the genre of a folklore ballad.

Michael Rechtshaffen

Los Angeles Times

Although the results could never be accused of being uneventful, the characters cry out for deeper, more complex dimensions than simply the wide-eyed dreamer and the rhetoric-spewing agitator on display here.

The Dissolve

Mitta struggles to marry the film's melodramatic storytelling with its appreciation for dark and dreary history.

Rated: 2.5/5

Bichevin is the anchor for all of the director's flights of invention. When his Chagall says that life can be wondrous no matter how dire things get, you believe him.

Rated: 3/4

Avi Offer

NYC Movie Guru

A contrived, clunky biopic that often drags and fails to pack any emotional punches.

Rated: 5.6/10

ReelTalk Movie Reviews

There is some schmaltz but not much Old Country here. And the value of art at such times when "life isn't worth anything" gets lost in the shuffle.

Film Journal International

Chagall-Malevich stops short of the kind of inventiveness that would have made the film a true standout of its kind.

An absolutely fabulous original movie about a fascinating point in time following the Russian Revolution and two artistic geniuses who were huge influences on artists for generations to come. Who ever gave this a bad review must be doing so in order take down an amazing and positive movie about nd ability of human spirit to transcend even the worst of times. I think that the people who criticized the movie for espousing philosophy were missing what was one the best parts of the film - movies are so debased these days into just pandering to the lowest common denominator in people that when a movie comes along that talks about the best in people - the ability to dream, thinking about ideas and trying to make the world a better place. These ideas are too often scorned by our culture which has become a sick one. This movie is unique and refreshing in every respect and its viewpoint deserves consideration.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
