Movie Reviews

Chicago Tribune - 10/10 by Michael PhillipsIf this lovely movie proffers a thesis or a moral, it's a simple one. A more open, fully integrated and passionate life feeds the soul no less than air and water. Or coffee the morning after.
The Skinny - 10/10 by Jamie DunnWeekend is the year's wittiest hymn to romance.
Daily Telegraph (UK) - 10/10 by Tim RobeyHaigh's film is written with a shrewd, unpretentious feel for the way young people behave when they're getting to know each other, shot with a keen eye for urban solitude, and completely nails its seemingly modest tasks...
New York Times - 10/10 by A.O. ScottThere is also a need for stories that address the complex entanglements of love and sex honestly, without sentiment or cynicism and with the appropriate mixture of humor, sympathy and erotic heat. Weekend, Andrew Haigh's astonishingly self-assured, unassumingly profound second feature, is just such a film.
HeyUGuys - 10/10 by Jamie NeishA remarkably assured, charismatic, distinct and refreshingly unabridged romantic drama about two gay men finding love at the unlikeliest of times.
Capital Times (Madison, WI) - 9/10 by Rob ThomasPart of the brilliance of Haigh's film is how specific the characterizations are of his two main characters, how their different natures both allow for the possibility of love and impede it.
El Financiero - 9/10 by Daniel Krauze... a modest and intimate drama... [Full review in Spanish]
Oregonian - 9/10 by Shawn LevyIt's a thrill to watch, just as it's thrilling to be in the hands of such a gifted new filmmaking talent.
Thompson on Hollywood - 9/10 by Anne ThompsonThe movie is exquisitely written, directed and acted in naturalistic, hand-held style on a shoestring. It's heartbreaking.
Movie Dearest - 9/10 by Fr. Chris CarpenterWell-written and insightful, I don't think we've seen a gay-themed film this purely romantic and ultimately affecting since "Brokeback Mountain." One of the five best GLBT-themed narrative films of 2011.
