I'm not sure 'Charlie Harper' would have worked any better told traditionally, either in structure or in non-fluctuating aspect ratios. Go to Full Review Angie Han The Hollywood Reporter Sep 4
The showy structure overwhelms the unshowy story. All the frantic time-jumping and self-important narrating leaves little room for Charlie and Harper to simply breathe. Go to Full Review Alfred Castaneda Shade Studios Jan 20
There is no shortage of appetite for films about toxic romances, especially ones with attractive leads, but you’ll likely forget about this story the moment you step out of the theater. Go to Full Review Matthew St. Clair Cinematic Words of a Chaotic Gemini (Substack) Sep 30
