Blackbird wastes its premise on shallow storytelling, though its splendid cast adds heart to a sensitive subject.

Someone nudges this in memoriam in the ribs and reminds it to be a melodrama, at which point a far more typical story of family feuding kicks in. September 19, 2020 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…

The film never recovers from a contrived and distracting plot development in the last third that highlights the artificiality of its structure. September 18, 2020 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

Turns out you can make a silk purse from a sow's ear, if "you" are Susan Sarandon, Sam Neill, Kate Winslet and Mia Wasikowska. September 17, 2020 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

A right-to-die drama so inauthentic and maudlin that the terminal illness suffered by its central character is no more than a suction device for the audience's tears. September 17, 2020 | Full Review…

While Sarandon's dignified performance just about carries Blackbird over its melodramatic peaks and troughs, the film itself can feel hollow - it wants your tears but it does little to earn them. October 20, 2020 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

What starts out as a sly and effective family drama becomes overplayed by the end. Why bother establishing vivid characters if you're going to trap them in conventional conflicts midway through? October 20, 2020 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…
