Drama Rated NR
“…exquisite, both in its lavish craftsmanship and in the way it captures the acute joy (and pain) of romantic love.”
“…a fantasy version of Steubenville (with a wishful dose of girl power) that does nothing to help us understand the sort of aggression that has become such a dominant part of youth culture.”
Drama Rated PG-13
“If only these characters weren’t sent spinning on a narrative hamster wheel.”
“…if Beyond the Hills is an exorcism movie, the scariest thing about it is that there isn’t a demon to be found.”
“…a women’s picture that nonetheless turns on male chauvinism.”
“If there is a visual equivalent to that title song – the Billie Holiday version is favored here – Kiarostami seems to have found it.”
“…turns a psychological condition into a parlor trick.”
“If Sheen brings any presence to the screen, it’s geriatric.”
Coppola gives CQ a sense of style and humor that makes the navel-gazing bearable.
