In the modest but sneakily affecting Australian father-son drama "West of Sunshine," your sympathies for a problematic dad come and go in waves, sometimes within the span of a few seconds. January 24, 2019 | Full Review…

The film realises Raftopoulos's desire to deliver a film that looks as if it's been distilled from reality but in this instance, naturalism isn't enough. The judicious injection of a sense of heightened drama could have made all the difference. August 15, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

All of the performances are at least solid, and for an indie, the production value is impressive. It won't reduce you to a weeping mess, but at 78 minutes it's a trim, satisfying drama that does justice to its inspirations. February 7, 2019 | Rating: 7/10 | Full Review…

[T]he drama isn't in the debt or the potential violence. It's in wondering if it's too late for a guy like Jim. January 25, 2019 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

The endearing dynamic between the central father and son isn't enough to disguise the frailty of this material, as it lacks any continuity of suspense or the urgency necessary for hard-hitting stories like this. September 12, 2018 | Full Review…

Strong scenes abound, though there are some major stumbles in the film's tonal shifts as well as some inconsistencies in the story. Still, the film can't be faulted for its ambition or its widescreen cinematography. August 25, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…
