Reviews


75
Slant Magazine - Andrew Schenker
Lynn Shelton crafts a film of astonishingly sustained mood, tying its beguiling atmosphere to the mental states of her characters.
75
Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman
Touchy Feely is minor, but these people are good company.
70
The Hollywood Reporter - John DeFore
Laughs come less frequently here than in Humpday and Your Sister's Sister, but the writer-director's empathy for floundering characters is intact.
67
The Playlist - Rodrigo Perez
There's a great movie somewhere inside Touchy Feely desperately trying to swim to the surface, but its obscurity also comes with an inarticulateness that robs it of its potential.
60
The Guardian - Leslie Felperin
The semi-improvised dialogue has the juicy tang of authenticity in the hands of this highly competent cast, and the players and Shelton never sneer at the characters' new-agey beliefs.
