Reviews

Consequence of Sound - Justin Gerber
Goat deals with masculinity, fraternities, and PTSD in equal doses, covering all of them with brutal precision and most importantly, success.
80
TheWrap - Alonso Duralde
Along with an ending that some will find either enigmatic or unsatisfying, the movie could benefit from some minor re-editing. But there’s still much that works here, from the chillingly droning score to a uniformly strong cast.
80
The Guardian - Lanre Bakare
The film is a pointed, astute and unflinching look at unbridled machismo and its consequences.
80
The Hollywood Reporter - David Rooney
This taut adaptation of Brad Land's 2004 memoir is less a dramatized depiction of headline-grabbing hazing tragedies than a penetrating consideration of the psychology of violence and its role in defining manhood.
80
Screen International - Anthony Kaufman
Goat is a potent reminder that even traditional gender roles can be rife with angst, anxiety and devastating social pressures.
