Movie Reviews

Chicago Sun-Times - 10/10 by Richard RoeperThe music, the cinematography, the acting choices, the daring plot leaps — not a single element is timid or safe...The Place Beyond the Pines earns every second of its 140-minute running time.
Observer - 10/10 by Rex ReedI think you’ll find it as fresh, original and breathlessly exciting as I did.
The Playlist - 10/10 by Kevin JagernauthA brilliant, towering picture, The Place Beyond The Pines is a cinematic accomplishment of extraordinary grace and insight.
We Got This Covered - 10/10 by Jeremy LebensDerek Cianfrance's The Place Beyond the Pines is an epic film that towers high above the rest as the very best film of 2013.
The Aristocrat - 10/10 by Adam RossBleak, raw, epic and vibrating with energy, Pines is a film to haunt your dreams, and, so far, the best thing I've seen in a cinema in 2013.
Sky Cinema - 10/10 by Rob DanielCianfrance places himself alongside Paul Thomas Anderson, Robert Altman and other masters of storytelling on a grand scale.
Digital Spy - 10/10 by Emma DibdinThe Place Beyond the Pines is one of the most ambitious and accomplished films of the year, a sweeping, searing family drama that packs a devastating emotional punch.
Movie Talk - 10/10 by Jason BestTerrifically captivating, whether delivering breathless action, knuckle-whitening suspense or moments of quiet intimacy.
Tampa Bay Times - 9/10 by Steve PersallIt's a story languorously told in three chapters, the first two in the late 1980s and the third 15 years later. Each could be a movie unto themselves. Together they prove Cianfrance to be an effectively unobtrusive storyteller, crafting without artifice what book critics would call a page turner.
Indiewire - 9/10 by Eric KohnThat the movie succeeds both as a high-stakes crime thriller as well as a far quieter and empathetic study of angry, solitary men proves that Cianfrance has a penchant for bold storytelling and an eye for performances to carry it through.
