	Author	Review
United States	A.H. Weiler The New York Times	"Mr. Bunuel's powerful, funny, startling but inconclusive commentary on man's frailties."	POS
United States	Dave Kehr Chicago Tribune	"Buñuel's wit is piercingly sharp, his timing impeccable, and his visual style superbly unobtrusive and naturalistic -- proving again how much realism is required in surrealism."	POS
United States	Ed Gonzalez Slant	"Simon of the Desert's little Bible stories are twisted evocations of the dumbing down of faith by postmodern Christian anxieties and hang-ups."	POS
