Critic Reviews for Coyote Lake

All Critics (6) | Top Critics (4) | Fresh (5) | Rotten (1)

  • Although Coyote Lake doesn't deviate too much from the narrative you would expect, it's the details Seligman incorporates throughout that make this thriller a promising debut.

    Roxana Hadadi

    AWFJ Women on Film

  • A sluggish mix of thriller and drama that lacks the suspense required in one department and the depth needed on the other.

    August 2, 2019 | Full Review…

    Dennis Harvey

    Variety

  • Coyote Lake is hardly a shallow enterprise. Its still waters still run pleasurably deep.

    August 1, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

    Steve Davis

    Austin Chronicle

  • The film is carried along by the strength of Mendes' emotionally complex, restrained performance that makes clear that Ester is as much victim as accomplice.

    Frank Scheck

    Hollywood Reporter

  • Minutes in, it's clear that Coyote Lake is not your run-of-the-mill U.S.-Mexico border story...you get a sense of a filmmaker truly in control of the tone of her film, a bellwether, one hopes, of even more assured films to come.

  • The atypical relationship between Ester and Teresa is something new for audiences...
