New York Magazine (Vulture) -
The movie is gorgeous, mesmerizing, poetic; the lyricism actually heightened by harsh jets of gore.

Empire -
A mixture of tough and wistful and reflective and brutal, this is the ideal vampire movie for Twi-hards who’ve had their hearts broken for the first time and want to move on to a less cosy vision of eternal romance with a side order of addiction.

Time Out -
Jordan’s poetic sensibilities more than make up for any flaws. His uncanny aptitude for conjuring up resonantly metaphorical images — from a pointed fingernail pushing toward a vein to a waterfall turning into a literal river of blood — proves there’s plenty of life left in this undead genre.

IndieWire -
By the standards of Jordan's earlier films, "Byzantium" is unquestionably a minor achievement, but its technical specs help flesh out a thick environment that elevates the proceedings to a lyrical plane.

The Globe and Mail (Toronto) -
Female-forward and class-conscious, allegorical and adventurous, Byzantium is almost the anti-Batman.
