Stephen Romei The Australian Despite its title, there are no jump scares or fright moments in this taut, tense exploration of immigration and Islam and filmmaking and liberal western conscience. The hysteria is deep inside, yet it is still there. Rated: 3.5/5 Apr 25, 2025 Full Review Ritesh Mehta IndieWire Hysteria excels in shepherding such nuance even if it fails to mine sufficient atmosphere to reach a truly singeing denouement. Rated: B Mar 15, 2025 Full Review Jordan Mintzer The Hollywood Reporter Hysteria uses its thriller template to question who such kinds of immigrant dramas are actually destined for, implying that it’s rarely for those they’re meant to defend. Feb 20, 2025 Full Review Vladan Petkovic Cineuropa Büyükatalay doesn’t make it clear that the point might precisely be that there are no easy answers. He handles religious, philosophical and political issues with great sensitivity and care, which unfortunately cannot be said of the plot. Apr 1, 2025 Full Review Dustin Chang ScreenAnarchy Büyükatalay has a knack for making an anxiety inducing thriller. But issues don't necessarily get solved themselves, even when they are screamed out loud for everyone to hear. Feb 24, 2025 Full Review Carlos Esquives Cinencuentro ...the film takes on an absurd, almost slapstick quality. Mehmet Akif Büyükatalay approaches this difficult-to-heal event with a sense of humor.
