- David Bax @ Battleship Pretension
- Excerpt: It may be noble to seek solace in solitude and the simple pleasures of love and family but, as Cianfrance illustrates, dark events—be they war or a selfish decision based on good intentions—leave stains across time and communities alike.
- Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat @ Spirituality & Practice
- Excerpt: An emotionally rich romantic thriller about marriage, parenting, and the spiritual choices that sometimes come with both.

- Excerpt: … it’s easy for the film to harvest your tears until there’s none.
- Jared Mobarak @ BuffaloVibe
- Excerpt: This is where The Light Between Oceans excels beyond what could’ve been another romantic drama pulling at heartstrings for no other reason than earning tears. What Cianfrance and Stedman deliver instead is something with lasting impact that will spark conversation as far as how we’d handle similar situations from both sides.
