It drags a bit at times, especially as it winds down, but it remains a film you want to spend more time with. Sep 12, 2019 | Full Review…

Meghie is adept at sliding between subplots and mixing her characters into talky combinations, all the better to maximize the film's slim 86-minute running time, but it's Zamata and her Zadie who steal nearly every moment. Sep 21, 2018 | Rating: B- | Full Review…

Laced with tart humor and sharp observations about black female identity, the majority of them delivered with spiky insouciance by Sasheer Zamata. Sep 13, 2018 | Full Review…

On the one hand, it could seem like some kind of triumph to see a young black filmmaker play in the same shallow end of the pool, but given that she's already helmed two other (better!) features, this feels like the worst kind of regression. Sep 21, 2019 | Rating: 1.5/5 | Full Review…

The Weekend explores all kinds of relationships dynamics in its' rather short run time, and also manages to have some great cinematography and production design (courtesy of Kris Belchevski and Cindy Chao & Michele Yu respectively) to boot. May 6, 2019 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review…

The Weekend is a little too leadenly paced to work as comedy, but Meghie settles [the film] nicely into a tonal groove as an earnest, emotional relationship drama. May 4, 2019 | Full Review…
