After a while it's hard to take Dosunmu's barrage of off-center compositions ... dialogue sequences that have the actor converse with empty space, and close-ups that reduce faces and objects to blobs of light.

Tirdad Derakhshani, Philadelphia Inquirer

It takes about 60 seconds before the elegant "Mother of George" has you firmly inside the world it has created.

Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune
Fresh

Serious cinema of the globalist sort.

Joe Williams, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Rotten

In the end, "George" becomes almost as irritating as that mother-in-law.

Tom Long, Detroit News

It's a powerfully sensual movie, gorgeously lensed colors and textures conveying its characters emotional states while thoughtfully exploring the range of human sexuality through Adenike's experience.

Barbara VanDenburgh, Arizona Republic
