Roma

Perhaps "Roma"’s most impressive feat is its humanism: its understanding of the chaos of life, and its unerring respect for those who meet that chaos with love.

Hur som helst är "Roma" framförallt ett sant mästarprov i filmskapande. Regi, kamera-arbete och klippning är på en kusligt hög nivå.

It’s hard to put a finger on exactly how "Roma" casts its spell; how it blends utterly devastating moments (several of which quite literally involve life and death) with a poetic, quiet everydayness, through which ever-growing children scurry.

"Roma" is a movie with a clear and distinct setting but one that boasts universal appeal. It's also built around a relatively small, narrowly focused story — but one that deserves to be seen on as big a screen as possible.
- Mike Scott

The Times-Picayune »

Though it takes the risk of appearing too quiet too long, "Roma" and its melding of the personal with a glimpse of a society veering toward collapse is incontestably persuasive, a film whose like we will probably not see again.
- Kenneth Turan

Even the film’s simplest and most apparently innocuous episodes are electrified by the pure style that Cuarón brings. And the drama comes to a head in heart-stopping, heart-rending style, amid the June riot.

At its best, this film makes you feel as if you could watch her go about her life forever and never tire of its simple, sorrowful dignity.
- Peter Rainer

Christian Science Monitor »

Roma is both visually and emotionally arresting, grandiose and intensely intimate all at once. By capturing and exploring Cleo’s individual life with such vision and thoughtfulness, Alfonso Cuarón has managed to piece together a sweeping interpretation of life itself.
- Sarah Kurchak

Consequence »

Translated from swedish: The lightness, the shimmer, and the sharpness underscore the paradoxical feel-good feeling that carries the film without being nostalgically sentimental. A completely unique story about sisterhood and motherhood that makes me thoroughly elated.

Translated from swedish: I describe Alfonso Cuarón's upbringing in 1970s Mexico City through the eyes of the housekeeper Cleo. The film is characterized by slow, controlled panning shots, an intoxicating presence, and connections to the masters of film history.

Translated from swedish: Masterful and personal account of a miniature class society

Translated from swedish: "Roma" is not the most fast-paced film, and the more dramatic scenes are yet to come. But when it comes to being transported to another time and place, and peeking into other people's lives for a little while, this is a fantastic time machine.
- Alexander Kardelo

Translated from swedish: Cuarón has made grand cinematic poetry of his childhood memories. In wonderful black-and-white images, with often long takes, and very emotionally, the everyday life of the family is unrolled.
- Jan-Olov Andersson

Translated from swedish: In many ways, "Roma" is almost a masterpiece.
