Critic Reviews for Thursday Till Sunday

All Critics (17) | Top Critics (9) | Fresh (14) | Rotten (3)

Sotomayor's vivid compositions establish environments and spaces tellingly, hinting at the family's history and current state through minor details and gestures, suggesting the bigger picture without ever explaining it.

Sotomayor's movie is more than the sum of its carefully accumulated details.

Andrew Schenker
Little White Lies
It's prone to burying its sharper observations under drift, but the performers, working almost in teams, are convincing, and Sotomayor elicits consistently charming responses from Ahumada in particular: bored, wistful, alert to the trouble ahead.

Guardian
While the dramatic content is taxingly minimal, the cinematography by Brbara lvarez (The Headless Woman) is full of emotional clues.

Daily Telegraph (UK)
Is the film about innocence? Paradise gained or lost? It is certainly about the nuances at play in a family bottled together, like lighting ...

Financial Times
What distinguishes Castillo's film is the facility and accuracy with which she understands, remembers and recreates the fish-bowl vistas and claustrophobic intimacy of a long car-bound journey.

Time Out
May be a little low on drama and incident, but Sotomayor has a way of engaging the viewer throughout the entire journey. This is due, in part, to the terrific turns by the kids, both of whom give lovely, unaffected performances.

[It] feels as long as its name, with long, mostly silent stretches devoted to staring out the window at the stark, scrubby scenery.

Chris Knight
National Post
The takes are long, static and not always rewarding, but Santi Ahumada's performance as Luca has the qualities we used to associate with Italian neo-realism.

Philip French
Observer (UK)
Impressively directed and superbly written, this is an emotionally engaging road-movie/coming-of-age-drama with stunning camerawork and a terrific central performance from young Santi Ahumada.

Sotomayor has crafted a compelling mix of road movie and coming-of-age story, using subtle tricks to involve the audience in the complexities and ambiguities of both marriage and childhood.

The images of North Chile's lunar landscapes sing - if you can stand the mercilessly long takes.
