Donald Clarke Irish Times Oct 13, 2017
Sadly this Colm Tibn-assisted effort has none of the warmth of his best work. Go to Full Review

B-
Wolff cuts a fascinating if frustrating figure, and you wish the film would spend a bit more time teasing out who she is, how she lives, and what she sees in a bore like Max. Go to Full Review
David Rooney The Hollywood Reporter Feb 15, 2017

2.5/5
Schlondorff's film is neither as slight as its premise promises nor as provocative as it might have been in a sometimes idiosyncratic version of a scenario we've seen before. Go to Full Review
Stephen Porzio Film Ireland Magazine Nov 1, 2017

Matt C @RT44999294 May 3, 2026 This is wasting my time I won't get back. The main protagonist is just a boring little man who is supposed to be an author. It's like watching a piece of wood act frankly, in fact a piece of wood might be more animated. In the end I didn't care what happened to any of these people... There are so many great films to see don't trouble yourself with this one... See more Jan 13, 2018 Fantastic performances, nuanced sensitive portrayal of feelings, very absorbing, a very well made movie See more Dec 8, 2017 Regreso a Montauk [2017] See more Jun 28, 2017 Not the greatest movie ever but a great performance by Stellan Skarsgård. The movie is beautifully shot and even though it leaves a lot to ones imagination (does she follow him to Berlin, etc.) it is worth watching. See more Read all reviews
