Movie Reviews

Screen International - 8/10 by Sarah WardAlison Maclean crafts a drama that's as piercing as it is potent.
Film-Forward.com - 8/10 by Kent TurnerThe storyline becomes as messy and nuanced as some of the best YA fiction tackling discomforting themes.
Film Comment Magazine - 7/10 by Jonathan RomneyThe diffuse nature of the narrative, the way in which the film sometimes seems reluctant to focus, makes it something other than the simpler, more direct, more obvious movie that it might have been-a spectacle of the pedagogic urge to destroy.
New Zealand Herald - 7/10 by Francesca RudkinEdward's startling authenticity and composure as Isolde means it's hard to take your eyes off her, while Michelle Ny, Alice Englert, singer Marlon Williams and Rachel Roberts make their mark.
indieWire - 6/10 by Michael Nordine"The Rehearsal" can't help but follow its characters as their actions become more irrational and occasionally overwrought, but like them it's redeemed by a simple yet bravura closing sequence
Cinema Scope - 6/10 by Ian BarrThe film is enlivened by an uncommon depiction of young people behaving and interacting in a believable manner, and confidently builds to a (literal) showstopper ending that's both rousing and hard-won.
Film Experience - 6/10 by Glenn DunksIt is a film that will leave people talking, I have no doubt. Hopefully one of those discussions is about why it took Alison Maclean so long to make another film. 18 years is too long to wait.
RogerEbert.com - 6/10 by Matt Zoller SeitzA sensitive, thoughtful, often provocative movie that nevertheless feels like a missed opportunity.
New York Times - 6/10 by Glenn KennyYour mileage may vary, but for myself "The Rehearsal" delivers a good hour and a half of engagement and intrigue only to top it off with a cherry that left me asking "Really?"
Shockya.com - 6/10 by Harvey S. KartenFilmed in New Zealand with a Kiwi director and performers, this "Rehearsal" is "Fame" without the Hollywood glitz.
