It is intriguing, the premise. But, in fact, you're not given quite enough access to situations or characters to really get an involvement with the film.

As an examination into the way trauma affects different people it’s intriguing yet at times rather baffling.

Each character's unique journey towards processing their shared horrific experience is handled with sensitivity and honesty.

Considering the talent involved in Winged Creatures, it's a pity that the movie never manages to fly above your average Hallmark drama.

It’s a worthy effort, and Woods pieces the parts together with skill and sensitivity. But, perhaps weighed down too heavily by its subject matter, Winged Creatures never takes flight.

An unconventional film in which traditional story resolutions (plural because several would be needed) are not forthcoming

Playing God, faith and doubt are the central themes of Rowan Woods' Winged Creatures, an engaging but often frustrating film in which beginnings and endings are intertwined

A movie like this tends to come out at least once a year.
