Leave your thoughts about Beside Still Waters.
| CinemalogueTodd Jorgenson... manages some amusing moments and shows flashes of visual flair along the way, but it treads familiar territory with scenarios that gradually feel more contrived than authentic. |
| The DissolveSheila O’MalleyWhile the film has some clunky exposition, and a couple of predictable moments, it creates a real sense of a group of friends who have known one another since high school, who don’t stand on ceremony, and who all, in various ways, struggle with nostalgia. |
| Fat Guys at the MoviesKevin Carran honest film that thinks outside of the box for a story that could have easily been a rehash of something I've seen many time before |
| The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisBathed in a nostalgic glow that just avoids maudlin, the group’s problems — a sexless marriage, an unexpected job loss — bark but don’t bite. Scenes flirt with cliché, yet the writing has spark. |
| McClatchy-Tribune News ServiceRoger MooreStill waters may run deep, as the old saying goes. But Beside Still Waters there’s nothing deeper than “The Big Chill.” |
| Spectrum CulturePat PaduaThis could be a satire of an entitled generation if the characters weren't so vapid. |
| Los Angeles TimesRobert AbeleLowell, a sitcom actor ("Enlisted") and photographer, lards his "The Big Chill" ripoff with plenty of arty touches... He assumes this will lend the needed heft to paper-thin characters, witless exchanges and emotional recriminations you can see coming a mile away. |
| Village VoicePete Vonder HaarLowell hews so close to the reunion-film formula he ends up stifling anything new that may otherwise have resulted. |
| User ReviewElizabeth CThis was a great film. It was complete eye candy from the setting down to the cast. There was a beautiful story here and you'll be happy you took the time to see it. |
| User ReviewLaura CFunny and beautiful. I've seen it twice already and will watch it many more times. |
