Leave your thoughts about The Waiting City.
| QuickflixSimon MiraudoMuch of the joy of The Waiting City comes from the slow unraveling of the characters relationships, as well as in the gorgeous cinematography of Denson Baker. |
| Sydney Morning HeraldGiles HardieThe Waiting City is a beautifully crafted bitter-sweet exploration of a functional but near-broken relationship exposed by this perpetually functional but near-broken city. |
| At the Movies (Australia)David StrattonThere's more atmosphere than plot in Claire McCarthy's film, but the atmosphere is very strong indeed. |
| MovieTime, ABC Radio NationalJason Di RossoToo often in The waiting City, there are moments that jar, misjudgments and bad calls in performance and structure that distract from the important process going on here. |
| Concrete PlaygroundAnna HarrisonThe Waiting City deals with themes of spiritualism, motherhood and the issue of international adoption, but is ultimately a film about intimate relationships and the stuff that binds them when all else falls away. |
| Onya MagazineGlenn Dunks[Director Claire McCarthy] wrings true emotion out of simple moments that audiences will recognise. |
| Empire Magazine AustralasiaSimon JonesIndia is the best character in a touching if convoluted story. |
| Sunday Mail (Australia)Nick DentCue the parade of local colour -- women in saris, decaying buildings, sunsets over the Ganges -- and the inevitable transcendental experience. |
| User ReviewBenjaminOnce again Australia proves that we make decent movies and brilliantly talented stars rise from our crops!! |
| User ReviewArindam PAnother beautiful movie based on my hometown, Calcutta. As a Calcutta, I was amused by the details captured in the movie pertaining to the beliefs and culture of the warm-hearted people by the Australian movie house. |
