“...Zielinski is superb as director, writer and star of his feature debut... Zielinski has the storytelling chops to shape that uncertainty into compelling, well-paced, rewarding drama...”
— The Guardian, 4 stars
“...Tender but tough... gets at a truth both intimately specific and universal... It’s a remarkable performance that’s equally matched by Zielinski’s assured direction and intelligent writing...”
— ScreenHub, 4 stars
“...instils a powerful trust with its audience... A lesser filmmaker would have told us, but instead he trusts us. That is a rare thing for a first-time director to do, and it is why I think we are going to be watching him for a long time.”
— The Curb
