Spoor is all but a green pamphlet on the big screen. Enriched with some majestic close-ups of wild animals caught in their natural habitat and framed à la Parajanov, [The film] is a sturdy environmental thriller film drenched in a very Czech black humour

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jan 21, 2025

Emphasizing atmosphere over plot, this muddled genre hybrid never musters the consistent suspense to match its haunting imagery.

| Jan 7, 2022

Holland's films contain worlds within worlds, and, like the rest of them, Spoor is a marvel to unravel.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Feb 11, 2021

The cinematography by Jolanta Dylewska and Rafal Paradowski captures the snowy woodlands in stark, aesthetically composed and contrasted frames.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Feb 2, 2021

...a pretty satisfactory screen version...

[I]t's well worth a look.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 28, 2021

Holland's cinematic mastery ... charges every frame of her misty, mud-ridden and chilly-to-the-touch film with the grandeur and ominous aliveness of the nature that surrounds Duszejko's world.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 23, 2021

It is beautifully made, very tense, has all these quirky, weird, and noir-y edges... [But] it really is quite peculiar, and the lead character is really hard to like.

| Jan 23, 2021

It's a mix of style over content, but I think it's a very interesting film that deserves some acknowledgment.

| Jan 23, 2021

Spoor is a crime-thriller that sparks with violence and toxic masculinity, yet has a radiant heart thumping at its core.

| Jan 22, 2021

A wildly entertaining eco-feminist crime caper, anchored by a winning lead performance from Agnieszka Mandat

| Original Score: 4/4 | Jan 22, 2021

"Spoor" is sensationally atmospheric.

| Jan 21, 2021

Spoor combines the plot of a murder mystery with the morality of an old-fashioned fable to convey a message of righteous environmentalist - not to mention feminist - anger.

| Jan 21, 2021

A film that's strange, darkly funny and powerful. Imagine a pulpy murder story that's also a utopian fable about feminism, social justice and ecology.

| Jan 20, 2021

Any Agnieszka Holland movie is worth seeing, even if "Spoor" isn't up to the director's best.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 20, 2021

Those who believe in animal rights will find this up their alleys as a woman, a fierce dog person, takes on the hunters.

| Original Score: B | Jan 17, 2021

Holland crafts an uneven discourse on the back of a character who veers between being unlikeable, unlikely, and sometimes uninteresting.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 5, 2019

Beautifully photographed and aurally matched by a magnificent score, Spoor is let down by its far-fetched premise.

| Jan 24, 2019

SPOOR is an environmental thriller that brings justice to animal abusers, by veteran Polish filmmaker Agnieszka Holland (Europa, Europa; Darkness) and her daughter, Kasia Adamik.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Dec 4, 2018

Ultimately unengaging, Spoor struggles through much of its two-hour running time.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 18, 2018
