What to Know

Critics Consensus

A poetic character study on the forgotten and downtrodden, Nomadland beautifully captures the restlessness left in the wake of the Great Recession.

Audience Says

Hang in there with its slow pace and downer of a story -- Frances McDormand is fantastic, and this beautifully filmed drama may even help you appreciate your own life more.

Namrata Joshi National Herald (India) Chloe Zhao's Nomadland mimics life scrupulously... May 18, 2021 Full Review Mark Kermode Observer (UK) What's most striking about Nomadland is the almost incidental manner in which it tells its stories - eschewing strident dramatic crises or narrative lurches for something altogether more ambient. Rated: 4/5 May 2, 2021 Full Review Kevin Maher Times (UK) Not since Robert Redford in All Is Lost has a star performer carried an entire film through wordless looks and glances. Rated: 4/5 Apr 30, 2021 Full Review Sarah Cortinaz InSession Film Zhao was made to make this movie, and McDormand was made to play Fran. The combination of these two powerful women has culminated in a modern masterpiece. Apr 23, 2024 Full Review Ryan McQuade InSession Film Ultimately, it’s not hard to connect with everything you see on screen because you can understand every character like they were someone you know. Rated: B+ Apr 4, 2024 Full Review Dave Giannini InSession Film This is truly her movie and she carries it on her shoulders without a single false note. Feb 23, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Charlie Williamson A very unusual movie but very good and thoughtful. McDormand was amazing.. It's not humorous or uplifting, but it is entertaining and very touching. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/03/21 Full Review Laura I wanted more insight into the mindsets of the people. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/14/21 Full Review Kate B A terrific film that deconstructs the concept of home as a fixed address. McDormand is superb, the underappreciated David Strathairn a marvel. A movie that never gets sloppy, is sweet but tough minded. Bravo! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/10/21 Full Review Jean M. A I loved it. I felt like I was the main character. I was so invested in her journey. My husband found it depressing but I felt fascinated by the comaraderie of the like minded yet very diverse travelers. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/06/21 Full Review Lulu Director and actors are superior. A brilliant and original movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/30/21 Full Review Jody B Slow at the beginning but turned out to be very interesting and refreshing. A new perspective on the existence of us human beings!
