Reviews


83
The Playlist - Ally Johnson
It’s an insightful film that delivers an honest portrait of four girls trying to navigate high school, expectations, friendships and their oftentimes heartbreaking need to be desired and loved.
75
RogerEbert.com - Sheila O'Malley
The film gets increasingly hallucinatory as it progresses, and there's a vivid sense of growing danger.
70
Village Voice - Pete Vonder Haar
Quinn Shephard’s directorial debut, Blame, leans heavily on this persistent despair, yes, but also leverages it in innovative and occasionally startling ways.
67
The Film Stage - John Fink
Well-acted and handsomely lensed by Aaron Kovalchik, Blame is an engaging debut that subverts the male gaze that might be associated with this kind of teacher/student relationship drama. It is objective without being titillating as it delivers low-key character driven thrills.
67
IndieWire - Michael Nordine
The witch-hunt metaphor that emerges from Abigail’s bullying is more overt than it needs to be, but Shephard clearly didn’t rely on SparkNotes in crafting her film.
