Christian Science Monitor -
Dance's directorial debut isn't exciting, but it's deeply felt and engagingly acted. Why doesn't he take more advantage of the story's opportunities for fine music, though?

Film Threat -
Charles Dance's début feature is an impressive achievement.

|
The Hollywood Reporter -
It is to Dance's considerable credit that he never lets the filmmaking overtake the understated storytelling.
