Los Angeles Times by Kimber Myers
It wears its influences on its tattooed sleeve, but this drug-fueled film is still an entertaining watch filled with bold style.
The Hollywood Reporter by Neil Young
Paradise is predictably problematic for the protagonists of Jet Trash, a flashily seductive and darkly comic crime-thriller that sidewinds between grimy London and the sun-kissed coasts of Goa.
Time Out
Jet Trash is not unlikeable, but nothing other than the scenery leaves much of an impression.
The Guardian by Mike McCahill
Belleville cranks up the colour saturation and ironic Yuletide soundtrack, but all his slo-mo hedonism can’t disguise an otherwise addled story treatment: we chop haphazardly between hemispheres, leaving characters and subplots treading crystal blue water.
