"Julie Delpy steadily weaves her good humor with deeper and darker explorations. Meet the Barbarians is wonderfully funny and fleet on its feet, but that comedy also serves to slyly push us into more pressing questions. What is a good person? How do we see ourselves? How do we see others? What does it mean to be part of a community? And, of course, who are the real barbarians here?" — Indiewire
