Reviews

The Playlist - Rodrigo Perez
Well intentioned and commendable, Tim Blake Nelson’s film does not put his dialogue or writing strengths into question. But movies have to convince us on myriad levels, and this can be tough enough as it is.

The Hollywood Reporter - John DeFore
The film is focused enough on relationships not to sound preachy.

Village Voice - Amy Nicholson
Anesthesia doesn't cast judgment. Instead, Nelson slowly reveals awful things about his characters after we've decided to like them. I admire the film's vigor, even if at times it feels like a cruel, clumsy trick.

Screen International - David D'Arcy
Anesthesia comes from the heart, as few films do these days.

IndieWire - Unnamed
Despite a few stylistic inconsistencies, the conceit mostly works, but it helps that this time Nelson has rounded up a talented group of actors to play his troubled ensemble of characters.
