In the end this movie belongs to Del Toro. He imbues Jerry with such life, such ambiguity, such unsentimental complexity and depth that you can’t help but feel you’re watching the most intricately mapped depiction of addiction and strained humanity the film world has ever given us.

Emotionally challenging and honest.

Chicago Tribune
Things We Lost in the Fire finds Bier at an interesting juncture, half-Dogmatic, half traditionalist.

Rolling Stone
Del Toro is the movie's force field. This is a performance you will not forget.

The only downside is that Bier's vision of upper-middle-class America does not always seem authentic.
