| Observer (UK)Wendy IdeA tendency towards navel-gazing improvised dialogue is balanced by evocative use of music and a poignant supernatural subplot. |
| Little White LiesJosh HoweyBrilliantly acted but doesn't leave you with much to ponder. |
| GuardianLeslie FelperinSome might find it all utterly insufferable, but, if you're receptive to the work of Joanna Hogg and other miniaturists of this sort, this is pretty good stuff. |
| Dog and WolfAlexa DalbyAt moments of theatre like this, the film infuses the level of meaning into its painful subject matter that you feel it intended to. |
| Times (UK)Edward PorterThis one... is particularly waffly, though when the cast stop talking, Sanders uses music and imagery to create resonant moods. |
| Total FilmKevin HarleyIt's bold, yet the emphases on reality and acting divisions, plus midlife torpor, get old fast. |
| Times (UK)Ed PottonThis experimental drama by Jon Sanders is brave and radical but not, sadly, enjoyable or engaging. |
| User ReviewDick WI can see why many people did not particularly like this, which is fine. There's room for us all. Reminded me of The Party, 45 Years, Being John Malkovich (obviously), and Patterson. The speed and direction is totally in alignment with the characters and the atmosphere. It is rather frustrating, intentionally, I assume, and it works! But it could run people out of the cinema. Great acting, great cast, and when improvised dialogue works, which this does, I appreciate that too. I may not be a professional critic, but I know what I like, and I liked this! |
