« This cinematic gem is so close to its characters that one gets this guilty sensation of not only seeing their thoughts but also their sins. A masterpiece that redefined how brutal honesty and toxic family dynamics can be portrayed on the big screen, it is also one of a handful of movies that made me want to become a filmmaker. » (Gintare Parulyte)
« Though it dedicates itself to avoiding directorial egotism, in accordance with strict rules of the Danish filmmakers' collective known as Dogma 95, Thomas Vinterberg's Celebration is still a virtuoso feat. » (The New York Times)
