USA Today -
Campion's script is very well received, but the film finally makes it on cinematics: bleakly beautiful photography, haunting score, and good acting. [12 Nov 1993]

The Globe and Mail (Toronto) -
Great art is both immediately accessible and eternally elusive, having at its centre a powerful simplicity that speaks to anyone who cares to listen, that rewards every interpretation while embracing none. The Piano is great art.

Washington Post -
The Piano plays itself with such contrapuntal richness, it resonates in you forever.

Chicago Sun-Times -
It is one of those rare movies that is not just about a story, or some characters, but about a whole universe of feeling.

Chicago Tribune -
In Jan Campion's The Piano, the emotions are deep, fierce, primordial. Sexuality overwhelms the film's characters like ocean waves blasting against a cliffside. [19 Nov 1993]
