Rating: A- --
Combining political intrigue, steamy romance, and engaging characters, Peter Weir's well-crafted, highly enjoyable adventure is one of the few successful efforts to make a Casablanca-like movie for modern audiences.

EmanuelLevy.Com
A curiously languid affair, rather than the breathless Costa-Gavras-style thriller which was the least one might have expected from this kind of material.

Time Out
The Year of Living Dangerously is a movie that gets stuck halfway because of a lack of imagination, vitality, and danger. [Full Review in Spanish]

El Pais (Spain)
Weir and his crew expertly recreate the squalor, poverty, noise, heat and emotion of the pressure cooker that was Indonesia in 1965.

The rest of the film hasn't aged nearly as well as Hunt's fun performance...

This is a wonderfully absorbing film.

Chicago Sun-Times
A good, romantic melodrama that suffers more than most good, romantic melodramas in not being much better than it is.
New York Times
Description by OLDIES.com:
Indonesia 1965. Revolution is in the air. Foreign journalists covering the feverish unrest are kept at arm's length by the wary Sukarno government. But with the right contacts, you can get a real story. Australian reporter Guy Hamilton is after that kind of story, but he knows the mere telling of it will betray his source.
