Taut, chilling, and overall engrossing, Tom at the Farm offers further confirmation that writer-director Xavier Dolan is a filmmaking talent to be reckoned with.

It's all a bit improbable, but Dolan -- who claimed never to have watched any Hitchcock before filming -- pulls off a Master-of-Suspense Psycho-drama, down to the scraping, disturbed violins. Dec 31, 2017 | Full Review…

Grief, lies and webs of deceit are the flesh-eating monsters. The film exudes a living poetry.... Dolan has the ability to render any banal activity ominous. Jan 28, 2016 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review…

It's a tentative slow burn about the secrets we keep in the name of love, and it doesn't quite add up. Aug 18, 2015 | Rating: C+ | Full Review…

There's not enough structure to these different threads. It could work on the stage where movement and place and time are necessarily compressed, but on film it feels artificial, not fully worked out. Aug 14, 2015 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

The kind of domestic psychodrama that may have resonated on stage but proves pretentious and hermetical here, after some initial tension. Aug 13, 2015 | Full Review…

The cross-pollination makes for some nice-looking scenes. Ultimately, though, there's a crop failure. Aug 13, 2015 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

A spellbinding, artfully disciplined psychodrama worthy of a top-tier Hitchcock. Jun 17, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Tom and the Farm's characters make decisions based less in rationality and more in getting where the writer wants them to be. It's difficult to go along with the story when the gears in its machine are so easily exposed. Jun 3, 2019 | Rating: 6/10 | Full Review…

Tom at the Farm certainly has some flaws that are too big to ignore but in terms of genre filmmaking and acting, it's a decent watch. Aug 26, 2018 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Violence and sexuality have been explored on screen numerous times, yet Dolan brings a new, semi-successful twist. Aug 22, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The distance between Dolan and the source material works in the movie's favor, and the shrill histrionics that tend to hamper his more personal work are here tempered by formal rigor. Aug 22, 2018 | Full Review…

Blends psychological-thriller elements with unexpected humor for a thoroughly unsettling plunge into a nightmare of fear and intolerance. Feb 21, 2016 | Rating: B+ | Full Review…
