[highest rating]
"A HEADY, INVIGORATING MIX OF CIVICS AND CINEMA! Godard creates an on-edge atmosphere from the start, [making] audiences viscerally experience and contemplate things they might otherwise not have wanted to."
Keith Uhlich, Time Out New York
"EQUAL TO BREATHLESS IN ITS INVENTIVENESS AND EXUBERANCE... For Godard, political engagement was a deeply personal practice [Le Petit Soldat] is that rare occurrence in cinema when action is infused with thought, and when the very nature of thought comes to life on screen."
Drew Hunt, Slant
