siobhanDec 13, 2022so fascinating to watch this and slowly recognize how quietly influential it’s been to so many pieces of media that i consider canonical to my own taste. you don’t get Lady Bird without this. you don’t get you don’t get The Florida Project without this. you don’t get…
demi adejuyigbeDec 13, 2022After spending three days with Jeanne Dielman I can confidently say that she is a woman who does not like to waste electricity

A movie that sounds challenging because it is quite literally 3 hours and 20 minutes of a woman doing housework but in actual practice is somehow one of the most enthralling watches I've had in a while. Akerman's impeccable composition & mise-en-scene trains you how to…
Josh LewisApr 15, 2019Adam was right, I can’t stop thinking about it. A boring, frustrating, painful experience of a movie that is also kind of brilliant. A unique film you should check out if you’re willing to be bored out of your mind for nearly 3 and a half hours.
Alex IHEDec 13, 2022quietly radical. yes, it's boring, and that's the point: being a housewife is boring! especially in the 70s, when you don't have games on your phone!!! if it's this "tedious" (non-derogatory) to watch her for 3 hours and 20 minutes, imagine the drudgery of actually living…

to be a woman is to be invisible. this movie demands that you reckon with the hot dinner put on the table and the dishes that are cleaned every night. it does not ask or concede: it is bold in showing you every tedious routine of the labor we have shoved into kitchens…
kaileyNov 9, 2018Boring. 10/10.
HibiscusNov 3, 2015Like is usually the case with these sorts of things, the day-to-day maintenance operations of and for the patriarchal state are performed almost entirely by women. As the subjugated, enslaved class, they engaged in the preprogrammed routinized, menial labor without which…

Pathos and commentary are lost in Jeanne Dielman’s egregious running time, which has absolutely no business being 202 minutes long. If the aim of this movie was to create the most boring film in the whole cinematic history they succeeded.
11811 lovedJeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 BruxellesNot every movie goer’s cup of tea, but nonetheless a groundbreaking feat in the use of long shot and a beautiful expose on the difficulties of womanhood
nevan lovedJeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxellesa slow-burn masterpiece that has aged as well as it has due to its simplicity, effectiveness, and phenomenal craft. i was completely drawn in by this woman’s life and was never disinterested, only intrigued as to where the narrative would go. perfect lead; one of a kind
- Tavin Shurtliff is "meh" onJeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles
Hmm. I watched it because it was regarded so highly. I can see the artistic vision pretty clearly and there is a very noticeable lack of concern for doing anything that might hold an audience. I probably won’t ever watch it again. Not sure what to make of it. Art?
Amina Malone is "meh" onJeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxellesas a film student, there are some fun films i am introduced to i would’ve never have found otherwise, and then sometimes… there’s films you wish you didn’t spend three and a half hours watching for class. just watching a woman doing chores for the whole movie 🤷♀️
Lindsey likedJeanne Dielman, 23, quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxellesvery, very tedious. but i still wanted to keep watching!

Metacritic
Chantal Akerman’s radical 1975 masterpiece Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai Du Commerce 1080 Bruxelles turns the term “realism” on its face, exploring the contours of a woman’s life through the mundane routines that never make it into movies.
Scott Tobias
The A.V. Club
Not only is it a stunning piece of filmmaking that is as rich in detail as it is patient in its exploration, but it also makes the most of absolutely every single element of its slice-of-life portrait.
Chase Hutchinson
Collider
Avant-garde triumph revolving around the seemingly mundane life of a widow in Brussels.
