Critic Reviews for Broken Ceiling

All Critics (6) | Top Critics (2) | Fresh (4) | Rotten (2)

It's a clever premise, and there are some great performances, including Kendrick's, but a few story elements are fumbled to the film's detriment.

Los Angeles Times
Righteous themes don't keep this low-budget pic from playing like a drama class exercise.

John DeFore
Hollywood Reporter
A claustrophobic, almost theatrical film about power struggles in the office environment. Written and directed by Adam Davis, and available on Amazon Prime.

Alix Turner
Ready Steady Cut
Wilson does a good job of balancing charm and obnoxiousness as the big boss, but it's Kendrick who really shines. She gives emotional weight to even the most laboured stretches of dialogue.

Jennie Kermode
Eye for Film
A timely response to toxic workplaces everywhere, knowing your worth and being ingenious enough to make it all come to ruin when you've had enough.

Black Nerd Problems
Broken Ceiling is one of the more satisfying movies I've seen in a very long time. Is it perfect? Far from it. But it is a very smart mystery that will keep you invested the full 90 minutes.
