Maris Curran had plenty of opportunities to insert a cheesy plot twist into “Five Nights in Maine,” her delicate drama about loss and its aftermath. Yet she stayed true to her intentions, and the result is a believable character study that may not draw crowds but certainly challenges its two lead actors. Read full review

Five Nights in Maine is too inconsequential to spend money on in a major release, which, I predict, will be brief. Read full review

Five Nights in Maine may leave audiences wanting more grounding in the husband-wife/mother-daughter drama that is a constant, foggy presence, but the raw confusion and sadness associated with great loss shines through. Read full review

Five Nights gives us only about two nights worth of movie, and far less to chew on than the stingy-with-story director would have us believe. Read full review

Maris Curran never reconciles the film's impulse to interiority with its weakness for hothouse melodrama. Read full review
