Reviews


91
The Playlist - Katie Walsh
Anchored by career-best performances from Long and Rossum, and a juicy script that bravely dives into the darkest parts of breaking up and making up, Comet is an original and inventive retelling of an age-old and universal truth.
83
IndieWire - Unnamed
There’s an actual pulse and beating heart to Comet; it feels vibrant, alive.
75
Slant Magazine - Nick Prigge
Its time-jumping strategy cleverly illuminates the way in which we go over and fixate on isolated incidents in our minds of breakups past.
75
RogerEbert.com - Brian Tallerico
It features career-best work by Long and Rossum, both eagerly devouring Esmail’s witty script. Yes, some of it is overwritten and a bit too clever for its own good, but more often it’s an engaging character piece.
70
The New York Times - David DeWitt
The visions (a meteor shower, Paris) are romantic and lovely, and there’s a sense of commitment to the enterprise that pretty much overcomes the near bathos and proves involving.
