Eureka Reviews
It’s a movie best received in a relaxed frame of mind. Because much of it is a slow burn, if there’s indeed a burn at all.

Here, extra-long shots of wild splendor and oblique talk of dreams makes the film go from patient to listless. At this stage, it’s a challenging sit, but perhaps that’s the point considering where we started.

Unfortunately, for all its daring, Eureka is often stultifyingly slow.

Alonso stitches indigenous stories and experiences across centuries and continents to create a mystical mobius strip of a film. The ambition impresses, but viewers will need to be slow-cinema devotees...

The genre trappings are familiar, but this isn’t any old horse opera.

Never an abrasive watch, even at its most elusive, rich as it is in visual and ambient pleasures...

Eureka is executed with undeniable audacity, and the ride is genuinely surprising and unpredictable – and yet it’s a gruellingly extended one, with longueurs where the action goes dead.

It is entirely fascinating, though undoubtedly it requires the audience to recalibrate their own consumption-tempo and attention span stamina.
