100Henry Fool is far and away writer-director Hal Hartley's best movie.
-
80[Hartley] has turned out a film that is the same as his impressive back catalogue - quirky talk-driven curiosities about people living on the fringes of society - yet somehow different, managing to imbue his usual obsessions with the freshness and vitality of a first-time director.

40Henry Fool, which runs a leisurely and ultimately tiresome 138 minutes, is so self-conscious it feels uncomfortable in its own skin. [23 Jun 1998]
-
0I found it insufferably fatuous and damned near interminable. [26 Jun 1998]
