The dialogue is minimalistic, and most of it courtesy of Lucinda's cruel taunts that cut like a knife. But even those moments are never fully explored.
Miriam Di Nunzio, Chicago Sun-Times

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Rotten
Too much goes unsaid and too many issues are unresolved. The scenery is nice, but "Five Nights in Maine" just isn't worth the trip.
Adam Graham, Detroit News
Fresh
Curran guides the cast to commendable performances across the board, with Oyelowo and Wiest delivering controlled, nuanced work to fill in the script's generous negative space.
Russ Fischer, TheWrap
Rotten
The dreary postmortem drama "Five Nights in Maine" is barely kept afloat by the gravitas of dueling leads David Oyelowo and Dianne Wiest.
Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times
Fresh
A believable character study that may not draw crowds but certainly challenges its two lead actors.
Neil Genzlinger, New York Times
