Michael Almereyda's Tesla is a wonderfully bizarre little film, a mood piece that aims to get us inside the mind of one of the 20th century's most interesting figures
audacious; ingenious; invigorating; soulfully philosophical film; Ethan Hawke does wonders at taking a recessive character and breathing brooding magnetism into him that keeps us glued
a film that equally inspired by "Derek Jarman, Henry James and 'Drunk History'"; Michael Almereyda's film still kindles Tesla's ever-growing legend in a way that reflects his unique genius
"Tesla" wildly reinvents the biopic; Both here and in the real world, Tesla is more legend than man, and ..Almereyda understands this fundamental hurdle in the biopic formula, and leans into it with refreshing candor
"Tesla" offers a fractured, engaging look at a genius; It's the kind of film you hope to see: an unapologetically ambitious, unwaveringly singular take
