Film Threat -
There are some intense, heartbreaking moments in this film, but I am glad to say that the ending is not as sad as it could have been.

Variety -
Uncle Frank recalls plenty of prior coming-out (and coming-of-age) sagas, but revisits their familiar terrain with a confident and skilled mix of humor and character-dynamic shorthand.

Arizona Republic -
Bettany is outstanding. He infuses Frank with just the right amount of inner turmoil and confusion as he tries to balance his love for his family with the wounds they have inflicted upon him — and as he tries to come to terms with his own identity among them.

The Film Stage -
For the first half of the picture, Bettany’s soft, contemplative performance investigates Frank’s self-hatred with such beauty that the re-introduction of the rest of the family feels like a detriment, despite the talent of the cast.

The Guardian -
It is a frustrating filmgoing experience, but still one worthy of your time for the acting alone.
