Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Tanya Hamilton directed her own script, and though her ending leaves loose ends dangling, the movie is refreshing for its seriousness and originality.

rotten:
Except for a stellar soundtrack by the Roots, there isn't much here to make anyone overly excited.
– Stephanie Merry,

rotten:
As a director, Hamilton makes Liv Ullmann look like an action movie director - and just for the record, Ullmann makes Ingmar Bergman look like Jerry Bruckheimer.
– Mick LaSalle,
San Francisco Chronicle,

fresh:
Its rhythm forces audiences to pay attention to what its superb actors express non-verbally, and to measure the weight of the characters' past lives.

fresh:
The film leads to no showy conclusion, no spectacular climax. It is about movement possible within the soul even in difficult times.
