Jordan is no stranger to the yearnings of vampires. He directed Interview With the Vampire. But Byzantium is a kinder, gentler yet pretty durn bloody affair.Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post
Go ahead, bite.
Tom Long-Detroit News
A drama that feels both strenuously earnest and impossible to take seriously.
Liam Lacey-Globe and Mail
Byzantium has a few moves that might surprise you. They have nothing to do with blood, but everything to do with the heart.
Michael O'Sullivan-Washington Post
A confusing yet eye-pleasing tale that struggles to breathe new life into the well-worn mythology.
Linda Barnard-Toronto Star
Neil Jordan's sensitive and very slow exploration of vampire angst. That the film also seems intended as some kind of vampire feminist statement makes it a rare combination of mildly boring and mildly hilarious.
Mick LaSalle-San Francisco Chronicle
With its share of haunting imagery, it's sporadically unsettling but never truly frightening.
Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com
New vampire movie lacks bite
Robert Denerstein-Movie Habit
This extremely elegant fantasy has roots in a plausible situation: maybe vampires don't exist, but there has been a child or two raised by a wolf...how do such children get their experience into words, get past the shame? Who will believe them?
Richard von Busack-MetroActive
With a magnetic performance from Saoirse Ronan, a surprisingly excellent performance from Gemma Arterton, and a deliciously peculiar spin on familiar lore, Byzantium is a refreshing take on vampires.
Chris Sawin-Examiner.com
Jordan, true to form, moves fluidly between past and present toward an archly frenetic finale.
Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune
Byzantium offers a twist or two on the traditional vampire mythology ... but otherwise [its] gothic atmosphere and air of tragedy feel awfully familiar.
Noel Murray-The Dissolve
A vampire-hybrid movie: moody and compelling with terrific performances from Gemma Arterton and Saoirse Ronan.
Clint O'Connor-Cleveland Plain Dealer
The film doesn't offer the terror of some vampire stories or the swooning romance of others, but does provide a supernaturally tinged vampire tale for grown-ups.
Eric D. Snider-About.com
It has a great mythical feel and is loaded with beautiful, haunting imagery. If you like "good" vampire movies, then you won't want to miss this
Austin Kennedy-Film Geek Central
While Byzantium brings a dark sexiness back to the vampire genre, a stale story sucks out what life Neil Jordan is able to create while adapting Buffini's script.
Matt Donato-We Got This Covered
There are far too many plot points and story threads that span centuries and bring in many characters.
Robin Clifford-Reeling Reviews
Instead of interviewing disparate vampires, here Jordan's giving us mother/daughter memoirs covering two hundred years...
Laura Clifford-Reeling Reviews
I can't wait to see it again, to see what else I can see.
