Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Slow, unadorned, compassionate, and earnest, Loggerheads is a low-fi throwback to the independent films of the 1980s and '90s -- heartland miniatures hewn from plainspoken lives.

fresh:
This quiet community and family drama set on the North Carolina shore offers a bighearted outlook on how to absorb change and defeat.
– Michael Booth,

fresh:
Despite a meandering tone, Loggerheads is consistently watchable thanks to committed actors playing recognizable, decent folks just trying to do the right thing -- or rectify mistakes of the past.

fresh:
... an understated and heartfelt story, superbly acted, with a strong sense of people and place.

rotten:
The dramatic tension is nil. But the performances, particularly by Hunt (in a non-comedic role, for a change), are worth a look.
