Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Invigorating musical elements and the lead actors' potent chemistry can't entirely protect this tragic relationship drama from its encroaching shortage of subtlety.

rotten:
Breakdown gets the music right and has the benefit of strong acting, but its unapologetically melodramatic plot has a tendency to throw everything at you but the kitchen sink.
– Kenneth Turan,

fresh:
It's the music that really brings Broken Circle to life, an excellent collection of old-timey country classics and originals that reconnects the broken bits of the story and resonates with its deepest emotions.
– Bruce Ingram,
Chicago Sun-Times,

fresh:
Traditional bluegrass songs of loss and grief provide the inspiration and score for this innovative Belgian, Flemish-language musical drama.

rotten:
The movie swings like a pendulum between elation and despair, with little time devoted to anything in between.
