Critic Reviews:
- Refn is hardly the first moviemaker to find a link between supermodels and scary monsters, but he may be the most style-minded one to make the connection. Imagine an issue of Vogue with Maleficent as guest editor. – Toronto Star
- A bold visionary artist, Refn seems able to revel in the culture of instant gratification while also subjecting it to critique. – Philadelphia Inquirer
- The Neon Demon is a niche, avante garde film to be sure, but it's one that any moviegoer and cinephile should give a chance to. – Film Inquiry
