Rating: 1.5/4 --
Much of this movie is bewilderingly slow, while the big action scenes are mostly unbelievable.

Seattle Times
"Ardor" lacks tension, maybe because the actors are playing archetypes: Little is said, and there are few surprises.

New York Times
Pablo Fendrik's ARDOR is a densely atmospheric, Sergio Leone-steeped western...
Los Angeles Times
[A] visually sumptuous kind of contemporary eco-Western from Argentine director Pablo Fendrik.
RogerEbert.com
The spirit of Sergio Leone hovers above Argentine director Pablo Fendrik’s ARDOR, a spooky south-of-the-equator oater -- or 'machete Western,' if you will -- that trades open desert horizons for dense jungle backdrops...
Variety
Magical realism meets agrarian guerrilla warfare in a tropical political thriller. As aborigine rainforest resistance with help from a mythical half jaguar guerrilla warrior turning up, goes toe to toe with corporate mercenaries pushing them off the land.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
As good-looking as the movie and its stars are, "Ardor," whose title refers to a literal state of burning, never manages to catch fire.

Product Description:
ARDOR has elements of a traditional Western, but is set against the backdrop of the rain forest in Argentina. A mysterious man who possesses a mystical quality, Kai (Gael Garcia Bernal) arrives at a local farm along the Rio Parana just as big companies are taking over the rain forest and burning it down to replace it with profitable crops. He witnesses three mercenaries, led by Claudio Tolcachir force a farmer to sign a false bill of sale and then kill him in front of his daughter Vanina (Alice Braga). The mercenaries kidnap Vanina and Kai sets out into the rain forest to rescue her and retrieve the paperwork to save the farm. Directed by Pablo Fendrik.
