The movie "Nocturnal Animals" has received several impressive and outstanding reviews even before its national release on Dec. 9, 2016. This made moviegoers all the more excited to see the movie and find out for themselves if the movie is indeed that great as what critics first described it.
The movie "Nocturnal Animals" also is much anticipated as it is yet another directing stint for Tom Ford. Many know Tom Ford as a fashion designer, however he is making noise in terms of directing especially that he has done a good movie prior to Nocturnal Animals, 2009's "A Single Man." That movie also was critically-acclaimed.
According to Seattle Times Movie Critic, Moira Macdonald said that she has seen the movie "Nocturnal Animals" twice but even on round two, she is still not bored of the movie. She describes the movie as very languid and very strange film.
Moira Macdonald continued saying that the movie "Nocturnal Animals" is a beautiful mess but suggests she may have to see it again for the third time to be sure. The movie is described as hot mess for the character portrayal of the actors.
The movie "Nocturnal Animals" involves flashbacks and other unique treatments all leading up to the entire plot of the movie. Tom Ford received praises for this rather unique way of telling the story through the movie.

As added by Rotten Tomatoes, critic Christopher Orr of The Atlantic described the movie "Nocturnal Animals" as an intriguing, well-wrought film that explores penetrating questions. For all of its strengths, it never breaks the surface.
Of course, it can't all be good words about the film. Other critics think otherwise like that of Pete Vonder Haar of Houston Press. He described the movie "Nocturnal Animals" as a handsome production but ultimately lacking in substance.
Many views, different strokes for different folks. Majority of the feedback from the movie point towards the positive. Many continue to watch the film and are mesmerized with the production and the plot altogether. The movie "Nocturnal Animals" has indeed met the expectations of critics after its release.
