Personal Shopper

"At first glance Personal Shopper is a bit of a tonal mishmash, as we follow Kristen Stewart’s character Maureen through encounters in Paris both mundane and supernatural. It’s a character study that doubles as a ghost story, a fable about wealth, a pulp thriller, and involves a lot of scenes focused on text messaging. But primarily it’s about grieving for a loved one, and the ways that grief can manifest itself."

"A broken, but never boring mix of spine-tingling horror story, dreary workplace drama and elliptical identity search, likely to go down as one of the most divisive films of Stewart's career."

"Amid all the shifting mirrored surfaces and hazy ambiguities of Olivier Assayas's bewitching, brazenly unconventional ghost story, this much can be said with certainty: Kristen Stewart has become one hell of an actress."

"Think of an episode of Scooby-Doo, add product placement by Chanel, plus a soupçon of French existentialism, and you have some sense of the sheer bonkersness of Personal Shopper."

"Kristen Stewart's performance is tremendous: she is calm and blank in the self-assured way of someone very competent, smart and young, yet her displays of emotion are very real and touching."

"The most interesting film in which the mysterious creature Kristen Stewart has appeared, and the oddest."

"Stewart is engrossing as the grieving twin and invisible employee whose own health issues make an early death a distinct possibility."

"Even Kristen Stewart can't save this undernourished mystery."

"Part horror, psychological thriller, rom-com, art-house and content marketing for Chanel personafied by the never-better Kristen Stewart."
