Visually, the film is jaw-dropping....De Niro is magical. -- Grade: B+
Entertainment Weekly
Every gesture is immediate, and every gesture seems eternal.

Chicago Reader
This would-be epic schlep, dragging almost 50 years of chronology over a sluggish 140 minutes, is far too slight of text and ponderous of presentation to sustain more than nodding-off dramatic interest.

...[The] lensing is excellent...
Variety
Rating: 5/5 --
A tale of haunting introspection, unremitting power and potent symbolism. "America" ruminates on the corrosive effects of greed, violence, objectification and pain, and forces us to face despicable acts of a stand-in for our nation's worst impulses.

...Richly cinematic....[An] exceptional film, both artificial and naturalistic, excessive as well as tightly controlled...
