Gilroy takes all of this to a more realistic, more interesting place, and he manages to find an ending for the story that offers a touch of optimism but doesn't feel like a cheat. Mar 14, 2014 | Rating: B- | Full Review…

Mr. Yelich is even more emotionally reticent than this central character requires, and "The Cold Lands" feels as if it were just taking hold when it reaches the end of the road. Mar 14, 2014 | Full Review…

"The Cold Lands" is aimless and dull, but has a rich tone and upstate authenticity. Mar 13, 2014 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Best when dramatizing how the land itself comes alive and serves as a character in its own right, resurrecting the buried history of the US Anti-Rent Resistance Movement of the 19th century. And perhaps a lesson well taught to an endangered rebel child. Apr 16, 2014 | Full Review…

The Cold Lands [...] sustains a lovely mood, but keeps the audience at a perpetual distance. It keeps threatening to turn into a movie, but never entirely does. Mar 11, 2014 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…
