Leave your thoughts about Uncertain.
| The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckCannily interweaving its personal stories with a vivid depiction of an eco-system on the verge of collapse, Uncertain marks an outstanding feature debut for its documentarians. |
| NewcityRay PrideThe images come quickly if not furiously, the camera mesmerized by imagery high and low, a succession of jagged-around-the-edges Terrence Malick-type tableaux. The men's stories sear with the force of troubled lives lived rough. |
| The New York TimesKen JaworowskiWhile scenes of the lake and land are magnificent, there are repulsive sights and stories, too. Whether inspiring or upsetting, all feel authentic. |
| Counterpunch.orgLouis ProyectA worthy addition to the genre that includes "Vernon, Florida" and "Pleasures and Plagues of the Salton Sea". |
| AV ClubNoel MurrayThe movie's both haunting and honest, confronting what it's like to see the community that sustains you die right in front of your eyes. |
| The Stranger (Seattle, WA)Charles Mudede[It's] a work that combines personal confessions with sublime beauty and a pending ecological disaster. It's also a film about the kind of people who voted for Trump. |
| RogerEbert.comBrian TallericoIt’s a fantastic piece of observational filmmaking about a small town on the edge of Texas and three of the men who live there. |
| Mark Reviews MoviesMark DujsikIf someone had invented a place like the city of Uncertain, Texas, for a work of fiction, it would beggar belief. |
| Irish TimesTara BradyWhere another filmmaker might have revelled in Uncertain's poverty and crime statistics, these directors find the sweetness in the saltiest of subjects and majesty in infested waters. |
| The Film StageJohn FinkUncertain is somber and effective work of mood and tone — a study of time and place, biography and geography that offers a slice of life that’s perhaps cut a little too thin. |
