★★★
This film is an absolute pleasure to watch. It's intimidatingly intelligent and complex, but it's also elegant, compelling, and all kinds of beautiful.
The cinematography is stunning—it makes use of a 2.39:1 extreme-widescreen aspect ratio that obviously flatters the starkly beautiful Transylvanian landscapes, but would be extravagant for the talkier interiors, were they not laid out with such precision that you get the feeling that Cristian Mungiu would shoot in 360 degrees if he could.
The script is nuanced yet straightforward enough to make this one feel like a classic story told from different perspectives. And no matter how much you know about Romania before seeing this film (and trust me: you'll know even more after watching it), you'll find yourself learning something new about its history and culture every time you watch it again!
