Critics Consensus

More visually impressive than narratively engaging, Vesper rewards patient viewers with immersive world-building and intelligent ideas.

3/5

It’s inventive and atmospheric, just not entirely coherent.

4/5

If you are going to see one post-apocalyptic, low-tech French-Lithuanian-Belgian film in English this year with Eddie Marsan as the heavy, make sure it’s this one.

B-

A dramatically uneven but imaginatively vivid feat of post-apocalyptic world-building that flips the script on so many other stories like it.

4/5

It's packed full of playful ideas, such as Vesper's incapacitated dad communicating with her via a drone that looks like a floating head.

Despite the fact that this indie project lacked the financial resources of some of Hollywood’s big-budget post-apocalyptic, action-heavy films, the filmmakers exceed expectations in terms of world-building, stunning visual effects, and storytelling.

It’s a fascinating film that discusses the reality and survival of the world through a much deeper lens with otherworldly visuals.

I kind of liked this, and at least it wasn’t woke. That’s always a plus. It looked neat and the stakes seemed high. I liked the bio-tech, which reminded me of Existenz. Still, stronger writing required.

This movie is so bad. It's dull, boring, slow, with recycled plot elements. There are some interesting visual elements but unfortunately what little is good about the film is greatly overshadowed by a depressingly bleak color grade, poor acting, and meaningless story.

A darkly beautiful, post-apocalyptic Lithuanian fairy tale.
