The film would be a routine affair if not for its baroque aesthetic gestures and a captivating turn from star Abbie Cornish. Read full review

Gass-Donnelly (The Last Exorcism Part II) blends supernatural elements into a psychological thriller for a kind of spectral therapy, but his experimentation ultimately conforms to genre conventions. Read full review

I admire the film’s ability to commit to a rather simple idea, but that idea seems to lack the gravity and impact it ought to. Read full review

Gass-Donnelly has a great eye and brings some genuine beauty to his movie’s rural setting. The preoccupation with aesthetics though means that “Lavender” is sometimes quieter, slower and artier than the material warrants. Read full review

Had we been able to witness character growth, perhaps this story would have been more successful at creating emotional connections and gripping sequences. The almost automatic nature with which family secrets are revealed, however, result in a quickly forgettable and emotionally empty experience. Read full review

After a car accident “aggravates an old skull fracture trauma,” Jane returns to the family-death-farmhouse, where she takes way too long to figure out the incredibly obvious person responsible. Read full review

Boring, derivative, and infuriatingly illogical, Lavender is a ghost story with no thrills, no surprises, and no sense. Read full review

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. a good movie for having justin long and so many long scenes...but to be honest i would place this mild horror in the psychological thriller/pizzagate folder. that's the only way i can honestly put it.… Expand

"Lavender" é um filme aborrecido, confuso e completamente ilógico. Não há emoções, surpresas ou momentos de suspense que deixem o espectador preso à história.
