"A true oddity for Buñuel."

Christopher Null
5/5
"Exiled Spanish surrealist master Luis Buñuel created a micro-budgeted but remarkably effective adaptation of Daniel DeFoe’s 1719 novel
Robinson Crusoe
."

A
"The film in its simple telling, without sentimentality, evokes a feeling of awe."
Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
3.5/4
"Buñuel posits a more existential relationship between Crusoe, nature and, most significantly, the character's loneliness."
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
B-
"far more provocative than the more literal adaptation's of Defoe's classic"
Old School Reviews
John A. Nesbit
"A relatively straightforward adaptation of the Defoe classic, Bunuel's
Robinson Crusoe
still has a few glimpses of the surreal obsessions that Bunuel no doubt enjoyed throwing out there -- particularly in a "work-for-hire" job like this one."
DVDTalk.com
Paul Mavis
4/5
"A fine film with a strong central performance, although it is hardly representative of the director's trademark style."
