The New York Times by Amy Nicholson

The film is besotted by its own cleverness. The overwrought dialogue clashes with the rest of the movie’s naturalism. But Smyth’s very point is that ordinary folk have the right to strive for poetry — and his shaggy sincerity wins out in the end. With this promising ditty as his debut feature, the filmmaker introduces himself as a voice to be heard.

63

Movie Nation by Roger Moore

The execution is novel, fascinating and just musically/romantically entertaining enough to not totally muck up the suspense that’s built in.
