Grippingly plotted and exquisitely thoughtful, 52 Tuesdays is a poignant reminder that neither confusion nor crisis is doomed to be calamitous. Read full review

First-time director Sophie Hyde’s mazy, impulsive but sympathetic approach is always true to her characters’ exasperating but ultimately affecting pathway towards hard-earned self knowledge. Read full review

A flawed yet fascinating Aussie indie. Read full review

The non-pro cast received their scenes one week at a time, and the choice lends their performances a compelling blend of discovery and authenticity. Read full review

Full of touching moments even if its emotional rewards remain somewhat muted, 52 Tuesdays feels highly personal and is never less than absorbing or sincere in its depiction of a non-traditional family navigating difficult changes. Read full review

The Guardian Leslie Felperin

Oct 25, 2015

The use of video diaries and the expository speeches are painfully on the nose at times, and dramatically spins a bit out of control by the end, while some of the acting is patchy. Still, one can’t but fail to be impressed with the film’s commitment to investigate its issues with subtlety and frankness. Read full review

Sophie Hyde barely elaborates on the toll James's transition takes on him and only superficially as it affects Billie's psyche. Read full review

Really well made feature, with an interesting back story about how the film was made each Tuesday for a number of months. Good Aussie production worthwhile watching.
