External critics' reviews
Christian Science Monitor David Sterritt
Take a chance on Gerry. It's only a movie, and you'll get out alive no matter what happens on the screen. You might even find you've had a rare adventure. more
The A.V. Club Scott Tobias
Conceptually bold and rapturously beautiful Gerry, a minimalist landscape film that's unlike anything on the American independent scene. more
Entertainment Weekly Owen Gleiberman
The movie is on some level a stunt, but it has the fervent, sun-dazed pull of an authentic experience unfolding in real time, with glints of drama, comedy, and terror mixed into the almost-but-not-quite tedium. more
Austin Chronicle Staff (Not credited)
Like the man to whom this film is dedicated, Ken Kesey, Gerry just wants to go "further." more
Chicago Tribune Michael Wilmington
Casual moviegoers may enjoy it, too, if they follow a simple rule: Stop looking for the way out and let yourself get lost. more
Boston Globe Ty Burr
Watching Gus Van Sant's Gerry is the cinematic equivalent of watching paint dry. I mean that as high praise. more
Los Angeles Times Manohla Dargis
About as non-narrative a film as you're likely to see in commercial theaters. This makes it a curiosity and, less charitably, something of a gimmick, but mostly it makes it a challenge. more
The New York Times Stephen Holden
With all its quirks, Gerry seeps into your pores like the wind-whipped sand that stings the faces of these disoriented hikers. more
Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert
The movie is so gloriously bloody-minded, so perverse in its obstinacy, that it rises to a kind of mad purity. The longer the movie ran, the less I liked it and the more I admired it. more
Miami Herald Rene Rodriguez
For those with the patience to latch onto Van Sant's slow, methodical groove. It's worth trying. more
