Rating: 4/5 --
A cinematic behemoth, an unshakable monochrome nightmare of squelching bodily discharges that inhabits a world so noxious you can almost smell the pungent deterioration of humanity as it spews forth from the screen.

CineVue
It may be unpleasant to watch, but despite technically being science fiction it's powerful and real.

The roiling setting alone enforces a medieval mind-set that feels genuine: brutal yet often jovially rambunctious and crude, pre-psychological in its sense of the cheapness of life and yet rich with local custom and detail.

Rating: B+ --
An allegory of Russian barbarism.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
[A]n extreme case of visionary film, and as much a delirium as a movie in any customary sense.
Film Comment
[German] is probably the most important Russian filmmaker to remain more or less completely unknown in the United States, and HARD TO BE A GOD is the movie he spent almost his entire career trying to get made and the last decade of his life trying to finish.
A.V. Club
This is hardcore art-house cinema and not for the impatient or squeamish, but many images and performances keep haunting you afterwards.
