Leave your thoughts about The Valley Below.
| National PostChris KnightThe actors, taking their cues from the script, under-perform their parts perfectly. The Valley Below is a superb first feature, and it will be fascinating to see where this new talent turns his lens next. |
| Globe and MailLiam LaceyAway from the festival lights ... this slow-burn collection of narratives, with its moody cinematography, original soundtrack and emotionally authentic performances, looks even stronger. |
| Toronto StarPeter HowellThe walls may be closing in on these people, but we are constantly aware of the vast environment outside, at once threatening and awe-inspiring. |
| Dear Cast and CrewDi GoldingThe overlapping nature of the narrative structure never feels contrived the way most multi-narrative films often do. Thomas holds shots for exactly the right time, only lingering when it serves the story. His edits are confident and deliberate. |

| Victoria Times Colonist (B.C., Canada)Michael D. ReidThe four stories writer-director Kyle Thomas has unearthed from Alberta's badlands, interwoven into an authentic, well-acted evocation of small-town life, suggests we'll be hearing a lot more from this talented filmmaker. |
| Cinema ScopeMichael SicinskiFirst things first: this is a pretty good film. |
