Peter Sobczynski RogerEbert.com Miniervi’s near-total eschewing of conventional dramatic or character development may leave others feeling as isolated and cold as the soldiers on the screen. Rated: 2.5/4 May 16, 2025 Full Review Kyle Smith Wall Street Journal At a brisk run time of just under 90 minutes, “The Damned” makes at least a darned strong impression. May 15, 2025 Full Review Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times “The Damned” relies on improvised dialogue and a resolute refusal to manufacture tension or good guy-bad guy distinctions. The style is impressionistic and minimalist. May 15, 2025 Full Review Jared Mobarak Hey, Have You Seen ...? Documentarian Roberto Minervini steps into the fictional narrative sector with Civil War drama The Damned by pretty much setting up an historical reenactment and shooting it like a documentary. Rated: 6/10 May 16, 2025 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews The slogan "war is hell" is supplanted by pointing out that war is mostly ponderous. Unfortunately so is the film. Rated: C+ May 15, 2025 Full Review Filipe Freitas Always Good Movies The most striking thing about The Damned is how ordinary it is, feeling like a moody vignette rather than a fully realized story. Rated: 2/5 Nov 24, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
