LA Weekly Chuck Wilson
Antibodies is fairly riveting, thanks to Alvart's command of craft and tone. He's a director to watch.
Read Full Review >Los Angeles Times Kevin Crust
Although Alvart lays on the biblical allegory too heavily at times, the film's pace is brisk enough to maintain our full attention. Antibodies is not so much an art house movie as a well-made, commercial thriller that happens to be in German.
Read Full Review >Film Threat Eric Campos
Antibodie does fasten a tight squeeze on its audience, right from the get go, and even despite the long run time, just over two hours, it's a consistently tense ride.
Read Full Review >The Hollywood Reporter Kirk Honeycutt
Films about serial killers have become so ubiquitous that they now form a subgenre of the crime movie. Even so, Antibodies, has a bracingly original take on the matter.
Read Full Review >New York Post Kyle Smith
The chatty killer and the nervy atmosphere are both so depraved that the film, though it contains hardly any explicit violence, is like stepping into a blood Jacuzzi, and there is a biblical severity to the ending.
Read Full Review >Variety Robert Koehler
Not content with a straight psychological police procedural, Alvart mixes in distracting -- and unconvincing --Biblical symbolism in a curious bid for weightiness.
Read Full Review >The New York Times Manohla Dargis
As is often the case when ambitious young filmmakers have murder and profit on their minds, Mr. Alvart is finally less interested in the nature of man than in the cool stuff you can do with a camera, which he tosses about the set, swooping it up and down and all around, without rhyme or reason.

Erika G. gave it an8:
Even with some irritatingly obvious biblical allusions this is a suspensful and entertaining film. The lead actor is convincing as a conflicted cop between his job, his religious mores and his parental concern. The killer is more than sufficiently creepy as well as adding a well-handled plot twist.
