When a dance troupe is lured to an empty school, a bowl of drug-laced sangria causes their jubilant rehearsal to descend into a dark and explosive nightmare as they try to survive the night—and find who's responsible—before it's too late.

Debie's cinematography is first class, the soundtrack is spot on, the dance routines are impressive and the final hour is Noé at his finest. Read more

It made for those who like experimental cinema, a cinema that tackles humanity, humans and their approach to life in a darker way. Read more

Climax isn’t easy viewing but it is compelling. Well worth a look if you appreciate the extremist and confrontational end of the cinematic spectrum.

Climax will not be for everyone, for me it is worth it for the opening dance sequence alone. The music of the film is sensational as is the cast and hellish depraved decline of the characters while off their minds on too much acid. Gaspar Noé is an exceptional artist with film as his canvas...

If nothing else, Noé has nailed that feeling of shutting yourself in a bathroom as you suffer a bad trip, the throbbing bass pouring in from a distant dancefloor threatening to drive you insane. Like most drugs, Climax will delight some, disturb others, and leave the rest waiting in vain for the effect to kick in. Read more

It is a film pulsing with a constant rhythm, and the insanity found within that rhythm is choreographed to perfection by Nina McNeely. Read more

It is 97 minutes of can’t-look-away intensity, a bold experience that may leave you asking “what just happened?” while you look for a nice place to lie down. But oh, those dreams you’ll be having. Read more

Insidiously vicious, Climax requires patience, a resistant stomach, an all-embracing sense of humor to deal with the nonsense, and lots of tolerance toward its intellectual emptiness. Read more

Climax is controversieel van begin tot eind. We hadden ook niet anders verwacht van Gaspar Noé. Voor ons een puur meesterwerk! Read more

Het mag voor zich spreken dat Climax niet voor iedereen is weggelegd – al is het alleen maar om de nodige seks en geweld – maar net als Mandy zoekt Climax ook de grenzen op van wat film is en hoe ver je kan gaan tot mensen weglopen uit frustratie of onbegrip. Read more

Climax is zeker geen makkelijke zit en het blijft altijd de vraag of je een film Gaspar een tweede keer wilt zien, maar de eerste keer is het absoluut een aanrader!! Read more

Een zeer indrukwekkende en onderhoudende film. Mede te danken aan het meer dan uitstekende acteerwerk van onder andere Sofia Boutella en Romain Guillermic die beiden zeer imponerend spelen en geloofwaardige personages neerzetten. Echter dankt Climax de goede beoordeling voor een groot deel aan de unieke wijze waarop Gaspar Noé zijn spraakmakende verhaal in beeld brengt.
