-
"Well-made film. Indeed, discovering such a small pleasure is the kind of experience that rewards film lovers who browse with open eyes as well as hearts."
-
"The gritty, low-budget realism approach of the Dogme manifesto gives immediacy and edge to the raw emotions Bier and her cast uncover"
-
"A very good new Dogme by Danish director Susanne Bier, begins with several lives in excellent working order, and proceeds by way of domestic tragedy to a full-court emotional train wreck."
-
"Though the plot's soap-opera turns become tidy and predictable, the film shows remarkable attunement and sympathy toward a group of characters whose lives intersect and unravel on a cruel twist of fate."
-
"It is as emotionally raw and wrenching as life itself."
-
"Less Spartan than some films shot under the Dogma 'vow of chastity' (there's actually a little music), but it's raw enough to complement the very real emotions on display."
-
"An emotionally honest character piece that avoids moralizing or offering soggy excuses."
