Yorgos Lanthimos's follow-up to his Academy Award nominee (and cult sensation) Dogtooth is another darkly comic, absurdist vision of (in)human relationships, focusing on a mysterious underground organization that helps mourners get over their losses by impersonating the deceased. -- (C) Kino Lorber UnratedRelease Date Alps Jul 13, 2012 Limited

Review For Alps
The reality it takes place in is heightened just enough to make the concept feel ironic, but then all attempt at genuine sentiment subsequently falls flat.David Jenkins-Time Out
An hour and a half of darkening absurdism.
Wesley Morris-Boston Globe
The film takes some deciphering, but once a viewer cracks its code "Alps" opens up into something expansive and rich.
Mark Olsen-Los Angeles Times
The movie contains some of the same elements that made [Dogtooth] so startling but they tend to float around rather than coalesce into a singular perspective.
J. R. Jones-Chicago Reader
A film peculiar beyond all understanding, based on a premise that begs belief.
Roger Ebert-Chicago Sun-Times
A strange story. A strange world. And strange characters doing even stranger things.
David Lewis-San Francisco Chronicle
Alps significantly improves (or at least expands) on the surrealist exercises of Yorgos Lanthimos's predecessor, the Oscar-nominated Dogtooth. Though you'd never know it by its rote dumping to home video.
John Semley-Slant Magazine
Emphatically weird, watchable and niche.
-Scotsman
It's hard to see what, if anything, Lanthimos is saying about modern Greece. And without that clear focus, the film feels a bit off-piste.
Miles Fielder-The List
What does it mean?
Philip French-Observer [UK]
From the Greek filmmakers behind the acclaimed anti-thriller Dogtooth, this fiendishly inventive drama is just as complex and telling.
Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com
Lanthimos is such a distinctive film-maker and nothing he does is without interest - but this is a misfire.
Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]
The movie's morbidly funny once you get the hang of it, and climaxes deftly, but for too long Lanthimos feels like he's stalling for no especial purpose.
Tim Robey-Daily Telegraph
Requires multiple viewings to pick this one apart.
Philip Concannon-Little White Lies
Lanthimos delivers another heady dose of weirdness. Loopier than a frog sandwich but rather wonderful.
Simon Crook-Empire Magazine
Absurdly amusing (in places), rigorously directed, and more interesting on an intellectual level than an emotional one.
Tom Dawson-Total Film
Helps make the case that Lanthimos might be a worthy, more entomological successor to Luis Buñuel.
Peter Keough-Boston Phoenix
Lanthimos' vision still compels and challenges, but Alps offers a big idea in place of a better movie.
Matt Pais-RedEye
...registers less as a drama than as a filmed scientific experiment.
Josh Larsen-LarsenOnFilm
This cinematic experience was weirdly fascinating.
