Critics Consensus

The Lost City of Z's stately pace and visual grandeur hearken back to classic exploration epics, and Charlie Hunnam turns in a masterful performance as its complex protagonist.

One of my all time favorites. When people say movies transport you to a different time and place, these are the movies they are talking about. Can the lack of clear answers be frustrating? Perhaps. But isn't that the cost of discovery and progress? So much time and energy spent towards things you may never know the answer to. So many journeys taken only to still have that void in your soul.

This was Charlie Hunnam's best movie! He is a wonderful character actor and he becomes the person he is playing. It is such a joy to see him on the screen! He has clearly been cast as a bad-boy/heartthrob but he has SO MUCH MORE to offer! Cannot wait to see the next role he chooses!!! And am ever more excited to see Vlad and his semi-biographical piece set in London!!!

You can’t help but see shades of Herzog’s “Aguirre, the Wrath of God” and “Fitzcarraldo”. Even touches of John Huston come to mind.
