Critics consensus

“Although it may arguably fail to do justice to its deeper themes, Athena makes for electrifying, hard-hitting viewing in the moment.”

RTTy Burr's Watch List (Substack)Oct 7, 2022

It’s been quite a while since I watched a movie in a constant fugue state of tension and admiration.

The movie doesn’t have enough to say to start a real argument.

Dylan Roth

RTObserverSep 29, 2022

Athena is an engrossing and unflinching polemic, an “action-tragedy” that’s both a feast for the eyes and a dagger to the heart.

Stephen Garrett

RTBook & Film GlobeAug 20, 2025

This is no ruminative thought piece, or a meditation on the state of things: this is pure, uncut rage.
