Mulholland Drive, like all his movies, isn’t an equation to be solved but a dream to be shared.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Jan 24, 2025

The movie is about Hollywood and the process of assembling movies out of money, more or less fortunate actors, dreams, and the spackle of happenstance.

| Jan 23, 2025

Mulholland Drive is dense, enigmatic, and frequently bewildering, yet stands as one of David Lynch’s most emotionally resonant pictures.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Jan 8, 2025

David Lynch's masterpiece. A surreal neo-noir that explores the dark corners of the mind and heart, as well as the Hollywood dream. A film that gets better with each viewing. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 5/5 | Aug 31, 2023

Just as with life, Mulholland Dr. is unexplainable.

| Aug 1, 2023

The movie is a surrealist dreamscape in the form of a Hollywood film noir, and the less sense it makes, the more we can't stop watching it... This is a movie to surrender yourself to.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Jul 11, 2023

If, in the end, Mulholland Drive is too clever by half, no matter. Lynch's superb command of mise en scène makes his images and situations their own reward, rendering even the simplest gesture creepy and imbuing any innocence with evil.

More than any Lynch movie since Eraserhead, this noir-ish Hollywood saga has the shadowy texture and pliant foundation of a dream. Or a nightmare. Or both.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jul 11, 2023

Few will be able to resist its heady sense of intrigue and two riveting lead performances by Naomi Watts and Laura Elena Harring.

| Jul 11, 2023

Mulholland Drive is thrilling and ludicrous. The movie feels entirely instinctual.

| Jul 11, 2023

Step back at the end and take in the whole experience of film and you might find that it assumes a certain logical coherence.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 11, 2023

Surrealistic? Expressionistic? Decide for yourselves. But don't discount the power and genius of David Lynch, even when he makes movies you cannot understand.

| Jul 11, 2023

Dreams don't make sense. Dreams don't finish or begin or come with explanations. Ultimately, that's what Mulholland Drive is about: dreams, identity, and, naturally, Hollywood, where dreams and identity get blurry.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 11, 2023

Nearly every scene -- from the effervescent, jitterbugging opening to the scabrous final grotesqueries -- is spellbinding to watch and impossible to decipher.

| Original Score: C- | Jul 11, 2023

A bone fide masterpiece. An erotic, deeply unsettling, darkly comic journey through the subconscious city of night.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Jul 11, 2023

Mulholland Drive is a puzzle without the courtesy of hinting how the picture is supposed to look when assembled. That's a blessing in this movie year, to find a piece of work both frustrating and exhilarating when so many movies don't even try.

| Original Score: A- | Jul 11, 2023

Mulholland Drive is an absorbing tour de force by one of today's most daring filmmakers at the top of his form.

| Jul 11, 2023

It's a multilayered, surprisingly resonant mind-boggler about illusions, delusions, greed, jealousy, guilt, power, rotting aspirations, the mutability of identity, the act of acting and Hollywood's seamy underbelly.

| Jul 11, 2023

More than anything else, Mulholland Drive is an incredible cinematic experience. You laugh, you wince, you fall in love, you hold your breath, you cringe, you mutter "Oh my God."

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 11, 2023

The result leaves us with dueling reactions: one, frustration with the intriguing plot lines introduced only to be abandoned; and two, a somewhat twisted satisfaction in a mystery that remains a mystery.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 11, 2023
