God Help the Girl is about aspirations and goals, musical or otherwise. Murdoch is working some things out here, gracefully on the whole. Oct 10, 2014 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Browning, staring down the camera and singing up a storm, brings buckets of soulfulness to a script that might not be terribly deep. Sep 12, 2014 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

At 90 minutes, this material might have sped through. Coming closer to two hours, it drags. Sep 11, 2014 | Rating: 2.5/4

Feels like one incredibly long music video about an endlessly recycled angst of struggling to follow one's dreams. Sep 4, 2019 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

The kind of film that requires its audience to be on a very specific cultural wavelength to fully embrace, but its openness and heart should be enough to win over even the most jaded among us. Aug 6, 2019 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Murdock and company haven't built a strong enough foundation for all the froth, leaving you with a film that tries to be provocative and meaningful but winds up settling for adorable. Apr 4, 2019 | Rating: 2.5 | Full Review…

Some of the songs aren't as strong as others, but the film somehow carries them off with an air of self-aware, carefree charisma. Apr 2, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

It's a bit too restrained on all fronts, but the film's young leads are wonderful, the songs are catchy and clever (Belle & Sebastian fans will be thrilled), the cinematography is shimmery and sharp, and it's an all-around pleasurable experience. Mar 22, 2019 | Rating: 7/10 | Full Review…
