Leave your thoughts about Shimmer Lake.
| The Daily DotEddie StraitShimmer Lake drips with desperation, with its characters seeking escape, justice, and revenge. It's this aspect of the story that got its hooks in me. |
| The Hollywood OutsiderAaron PetersonShimmer Lake requires attention be paid, or prepare for a head-scratching conclusion as the pieces finally align for the story's end game. Or maybe that's the beginning game? |
| The Young FolksElazar FineIn spite of myself, I kinda like Shimmer Lake. |
| Consequence of SoundRandall ColburnShimmer Lake’s climax does a fine job of bringing together its disparate parts for a resolution that’s surprising, effective, and logical. |
| RogerEbert.comNick AllenFrom start to finish, Uziel’s packaging of the story seems more inspired than its contents. |
| Movie NationRoger MooreThe performances range from unconvincing to not-quite-compelling, with Wilson the sole standout. |
| DeciderJoe ReidBy the time you make it to the end of Shimmer Lake and have unraveled the mystery, the film has finally hit its stride, so much that you'll want to start it up again to watch with the foreknowledge of what everybody's up to. |
| User ReviewMarc DFinally a Netflix original movie that can hold up to the streaming services series successes. The tension builds from start to finish with a twist that fits perfectly with the reverse format. 5 stars. |
| User ReviewJohn LWell done film. Production values are a little low, because it's an independent film, but well written and acted. |
| User Reviewcjvv fUnusual and intriguing story told in reverse, where er go back to the start to discover what happens at the end. |
