| Village VoiceViolet LuccaLee Isaac Chung's modern-day retelling of a Korean fairy tale is an experiment in space, narrative and physical. |
| The PlaylistGabe ToroPlummer adds another comfortably unreliable character to her gallery, turning Abigail into an older woman with a schoolboy crush. |
| Slant MagazineDiego SemereneLee Isaac Chung's film exudes a wonderful sense of originality, a daring and organic playfulness rarely found in American indie cinema. |
| Time OutDavid FearThe gorgeous cinematography and generosity to Plummer’s emotive gifts almost make up for the mumbo-jumboness of it all. Almost. |
| VarietyRichard KuipersThough never dull, the result is a curiously distant meditation on intimacy. |
| New York PostFarran Smith NehmeThe tone teeters between delicate and affected, and there’s only so much flitting around and soulful stares a movie can sustain before an audience starts wanting something more earthbound. |

| CinemacyMorgan RojasAbigail Harm is more than just a film, it's an art piece and an experience. |
| Spectrum CulturePat PaduaTries desperately to go against the Hollywood grain, but it's just another independent film that smothers the emotional potential of its material in relentless quirk. |
