Critics Consensus

Intoxicating in style but saddled with pacing that feels like purgatory, Her Private Hell is a take-it-or-leave-it proposition from Nicolas Winding Refn that the unconverted will happily decline.

If you try to take these characters and situations literally, Her Private Hell is tough sledding; if you start looking at them as free-floating genre signifiers, the film becomes considerably more absorbing.

I admired the madness. What it all means, I can only guess, but I was captivated by Mr. Refn’s psyche-mining imagery.

2.5/4

it can feel like an alienating and nihilistic experience. But like every Refn movie, it is undeniably profound, deeply beautiful and perhaps deceptively deep, even as he’s playing dumb.

6/10

A neon-soaked giallo Megalopolis but somehow weirder, hornier, and less narratively coherent, it exists as an artifact that only Refn understands, leaving the audience scratching their heads in utter confusion...

It would be great to take Refn’s visual sensibilities and put them into the body of someone who knows how to tell a coherent story.

2.5/5

There’s not a captivating emotion or idea on which to hang the picture, and so a movie that's aggressively hued, sexualized, and occasionally violent becomes cold and distant.

This movie was so incredibly bad that I walked out with half an hour left. Who is this movie for?

Beautiful to look at but that’s about it. Would be better as a music video. All style no substance. Too bad I was hoping I was going to like it.

Absolutely insane in every way possible. This is without a doubt one of the most inaccessible movies to ever be released in mainstream cinemas and therefore it should be celebrated. I’m well aware that this will not be for everyone, but if you are a fan of Nicolas Winding Refn, this is a must watch. Not a perfect movie by any means but truly a one of a kind experience.

This was one strange movie that was hard to follow. With that, it didn’t make sense to me.

If I could give this movie no stars I would. I gave it an honest try and myself and 6 other strangers left the movie theater after 45min-1hr into the movie and we had to forfeit the money we spent on this ridiculously plotless movie because there was only 30min left of the movie. It was so bad that I didn’t bother going back to finish it and gladly accepted the loss of money

The visual styling is amazing, but that's all. I love Sophie Thatcher, but as talented as she is, there's nothing she can do in a movie with zero coherent story when you have no clue what is going on. Seems like the director is the only person who gets it, and have no interest in sharing his movie with the audience. It's almost like he wants you to hate it, and did a great job at that too.
