Here are review links for this film submitted by our members:

  • Allen Almachar @ The MacGuffin
    • Excerpt: This is one of those films where every element must be firing on all cylinders to work. If one piece didn’t fit correctly, the entire puzzle would fall apart.
  • Andrea Chase @ KillerMovieReview.com
    • Excerpt: An emotional thriller of the first order. A grotesquely fascinating battle of wills between two formidable women who do not fit reassuringly into neat pigeon-holes
  • Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
    • Excerpt: The three leads are phenomenal, Portman’s husky come-ons amusing in their brazenness and revelatory in their application, her direct camera reading of Gracie’s love letter the film’s climactic assumption of character.
  • Bavner Donaldo @ Cinejour [Indonesian]
  • Candice Frederick @ HuffPost
  • Kirsten Hawkes @ Parent Previews
  • Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
    • Excerpt: Screenwriter Samy Burch creatively explores this controversial true-life story.
  • Jared Mobarak @ Hey, have you seen …?
    • Excerpt: The result is a complex character study that demands we not lose sight of the layers involved. You don’t have to vilify or champion anyone to do so either. Stop short and consider where happiness meets contentment and acceptance meets defeat
  • Christopher Reed @ Film Festival Today
    • Excerpt: Haynes returns, time and again, to the question of exploitation. Who benefits when crime is turned into entertainment?
  • [New] | Diego Salgado @ SoFilm [Spanish]
  • Katie Smith-Wong @ Flickfeast
    • Excerpt: In his most provocative film to date, Haynes’ May December is a chilling yet visually intriguing drama that not only captures the audience’s attention but also showcases Portman and Moore’s electric performances.
  • Sebastian Zavala @ MeGustaElCine.com [Spanish]
    • Excerpt: A fascinating interpretation of a true story, which uses an interesting balance of tones —altering between the absolutely serious and the trashy— and which makes the most of the talents of its spectacular main actors and actresses.
