9/10
"The effect of visual movements in Of Time and the City is fantastic. Even as it documents urban life and recalls events, it offers Terence Davies' analyses of the history that has shaped him."  PopMatters  Cynthia Fuchs

3/4
"Of Time and the City never less than throbs with emotion, a reminder of what a loss Davies's absence from the screen has been."  Slant Magazine  Fernando F. Croce

39/100
"It fails to turn its assemblage of stock footage and sarcastic observation into the grand summation of a place and era it would love to be."  MovieMartyr.com  Jeremy Heilman

5/5
"a longing tone poem of Liverpool"  Filmcritic.com  Paul Brenner

4.5/5
"A lyrical poem about his hometown, this is Davies' first movie in eight years. And his artistic approach gives us a moving, kaleidoscopic portrait both of a city and of the filmmaker himself."  Shadows on the Wall  Rich Cline

"... a wistful, funny, satirical, angry and forgiving portrait."  Parallax View  Sean Axmaker

10/10
"A compelling and unique character study."  Antagony & Ecstasy  Tim Brayton
