Time Out -
Nichols has said that the idea for the film emerged from a free-floating anxiety that he sensed in the world at large, the feeling that everything we treasure in life could be lost in an instant. That sensation permeates this strikingly original movie - especially its enigmatic mind-fuck of a finale, which will haunt you for several lifetimes.

Entertainment Weekly -
Writer-director Jeff Nichols builds his elegantly shot, weather-sensitive horror story in waves of tension that crest as if pulled by tempests.
|
|
The Hollywood Reporter -
A riveting genre blend of thriller, domestic drama and supernatural horror propelled by a brilliant lead performance.
|
|
New York Magazine (Vulture) -
Nichols has a genius for making landscapes and everyday objects resonate like crazy, for nailing the texture of dread.
|
|
Village Voice -
Despite a few missteps, Take Shelter powerfully lays bare our national anxiety disorder - a pervasive dread that Curtis can define only as "something that's not right."
