Critic Reviews

  • Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune
    A pleasant, inconsequential indie with deep Minneapolis roots, "Stuck Between Stations" should please youth-oriented Minnesota audiences. It's unlikely to set the rest of the planet on fire. More...
  • Andy Webster, New York Times
    There are no easy payoffs in "Stuck Between Stations," but the chemistry of its stars is reward enough. More...
  • Nick Pinkerton, Village Voice
    There's an overapplication of split-screen and woozy soundtrack cues to this end, but Lister Jones and Rosen do an appealing back-and-forth with lively dialogue, not dulled in the interest of realism. More...
  • John Anderson, Variety
    Real people may not be this glib and witty, but Rosen and Lister-Jones sell us on Casper and Becky nonetheless. More...
  • David Nusair, Reel Film Reviews
    The end result is a well-intentioned yet terminally underwhelming indie that maintains a nigh passable feel virtually from start to finish... More...
  • Chris Hewitt (St. Paul), St. Paul Pioneer Press
    The movie has a meandery structure and the gimmicky split-screen technique used to distract us from the familiar goings-on doesn't get the job done. More...
  • Chris Cabin, Slant Magazine
    Brady Kiernan's Stuck Between Stations has sweetness to it, but it's a sweetness borrowed from innumerable other films and constantly corrupted by biased politics and crass emotional digressions. More...
  • Fred Topel, Screen Junkies
    Stuck Between Stations moved well enough that I wanted to stay with it. It definitely gets to a point where it says something unique. More...
