Leave your thoughts about Blue Jay.
| indieWireSteve GreeneBlue Jay doesn’t lean on destiny or succumb to the easy refrain that time is a great equalizer. There’s genuine happiness here, but heartbreak is always right behind it. |
| Village VoiceSerena DonadoniLehmann shot Blue Jay in a gorgeous black-and-white that looks like silver gelatin prints (a photographic process that captures boundless gradations of gray), which complements the story's heartfelt simplicity. |
| The Young FolksMatt ConwayBlue Jay utilizes its simplistic concept to the best of its ability, packing equal parts depth and humanity throughout. |
| Mark Reviews MoviesMark DujsikThe film may not stick the landing, but everything before that is special. |
| Slant MagazineChuck BowenMark Duplass and Sarah Paulson have extraordinary chemistry, painting a cumulative portrait of the fragility and rareness of being truly in sync with a partner. |
| AV ClubMike D'AngeloDuplass and Paulson counteract the deliberately banal dialogue (Duplass also wrote the screenplay) with superbly anxious body language; Jim and Amanda’s “casual,” “amiable” chitchat is so painfully forced that it’s a wonder nothing ruptures. |
| Movie MezzanineMallory AndrewsWith its black-and-white photography dropping us into a cinematic space out-of-step with time, Blue Jay is a poignant chamber play between fortysomethings who never quite got over their teen romance. |
| We Got This CoveredRobert Yaniz, Jr.Sarah Paulson and Mark Duplass shine in Blue Jay, a charming nostalgia trip tackling heady themes in a manner that is both lovingly awkward and brutally real. |
| Los Angeles TimesGary GoldsteinThe largely improvisational approach as well as the limited settings and story arc also undercut the picture’s deeper dramatic potential — despite a powerful, beautifully performed finale. |
| PopMattersStephen MayneThe ending is also nicely ambiguous, as befits a film that is drama rather than romance. It's a powerful little punch to go out on. |
