Entertainment Reviews:
[T]his is a comedy -- one that takes fiendish pleasure in puncturing the pomp and circumstance of a cog in the empire-building machine. -- Grade: B+
A.V. Club
Told in the typically oblique style of Argentinian director Lucrecia Martel, this adaptation of Antonio di Benedetto's novel is nonetheless a pointed fable about the futility of colonialism.

The Age (Australia)
This blackly funny-and ultimately haunting-examination of colonial history is thoroughly characteristic in its brilliant manipulation of physical space.

Chicago Reader
Rating: 4/5 --
Languishing in a godforsaken, 18th-century South American colony, pining for his family and desperate beyond measure to be gone, magistrate Don Diego de Zama is in fact going precisely nowhere.

Nobody's Reading This But Me
ZAMA can come off as intensely abstract. But as a mood piece, it’s extraordinary.
The Atlantic
4 stars out of 4 -- ZAMA is more than a portrait of the loneliness of the long-distance foreigner. It's the sort of immersive cultural transmission that reminds you just how powerful and transportive this medium can be -- one of those rarities that can momentarily jolt you out of your ways of seeing things.
Rolling Stone
Rating: 3/5 --
A film that is haunting, baffling, and frustrating in equal measure.
