Brie's performance is powerful and the film's editing does a superb job of mixing Sarah's obscured perception with reality, succeeding in offering an unsettling look into the mind of someone who suffers from a severe mental illness. February 24, 2020 | Full Review…

Brie's performance is open and honest and disturbing and funny and lovely and resonant. February 11, 2020 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

Ostensibly, this is a tragedy about mental illness... But "Horse Girl" is far more subversive and playful than just that, allowing for Sarah's peculiar reality to envelope our own. February 10, 2020 | Full Review…

The way Brie shows you Sarah slowly slipping out of reality-then steeply sliding further down a snake pit of instability-gives you the sense that she's flexing a new set of muscles. February 7, 2020 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The ambition of Horse Girl ultimately gets the better of it, turning what could be a dark but insightful depiction on signs missed in a mental health crisis into an agreement on one's madness February 7, 2020 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

By the end, viewers have whiplash and a distinct sensation that the script needed several more drafts, but they aren't bored. March 18, 2020 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Horse Girl unfolds like a fever dream, appropriately. A twisting narrative built upon strong performances. The end is far from satisfying, but that's part of its charm. February 27, 2020 | Full Review…

The conclusion is meaningfully painful and actually felt like an invitation to revisit the film, a privilege afforded to streaming flicks that is too rarely exploited. February 21, 2020 | Rating: A- | Full Review…

An incongruous, engaging ride, Horse Girl doesn't hit all the marks, and some audiences will become deterred, but Brie's tour de force performance is truly the base and it's one worth jumping off from. February 16, 2020 | Full Review…
