Leave your thoughts about Apostasy.
| Financial TimesNigel AndrewsKokotajlo's first feature is shot in a muted beige glow. No dramatic colours; just the pulse of anxious, unquiet, outwardly placid lives obeying the call of self-denial. |
| Irish TimesDonald ClarkeThe lack of music emphasises the religion's starkness. The pared-down performances do more of the same. A disturbing, unflinching debut. One of the year's best British films. |
| Flick FilosopherMaryAnn JohansonA scathing critique of inhumanity in the name of religion - in this case, Jehovah's Witnesses - made all the more chilling by its drab colorlessness and mute suffocation. |
| The Sun (UK)Jamie EastFinneran is stoic and mesmerising in a film awash with resentment, duty and an almost comical level of cruelty - perfectly brought to life by all involved. |
| Daily Mail (UK)Brian VinerIt is a piercingly well-observed and heartbreakingly sad drama, but above all, impressively restrained, even when the small, stressed family unit is struck by tragedy. |
| The SpectatorDeborah RossThe script is superbly restrained, as is the direction, which delicately handles extremely painful situations. Nothing is ever clumsily spelled out. |
| Daily Telegraph (UK)Tim RobeyEmotionally, the film is a baton skilfully passed from Wright to Parkinson, both superb, while Finneran, severe and stricken, remains a constant. |
| Independent (UK)Geoffrey MacnabDaniel Kokotajlo's low budget drama Apostasy gives audiences a revealing and very uncomfortable insight into the lives of Jehovah's Witnesses. |
| New StatesmanRyan GilbeyApostasy is muted: hushed, still, almost colourless. But don't let that fool you. Its pain is all the more distressing for being muffled. |
| The ListEmma SimmondsA meticulously measured drama that shows the toll of prioritising religious adherence over all else. |
