Critic Reviews

Nathan Lee

Neither sentimental nor cruel, yet touching and trenchant, the movie sustains a profound ambivalence right up to the final shot. Read full review

Drew Tillman

If you can look past the film's inexplicably straight face, Two Drifters is an enjoyably daffy picture. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Maitland McDonagh

Though the film contains many haunting images, the absence of a solid emotional foundation makes its increasingly preposterous story developments feel arbitrary and ultimately pointless. Read full review

Ella Taylor

The setup and execution of this quietly histrionic tale of the distorting power of thwarted love are so patently ridiculous that the urge to laugh gets in the way. Read full review

Jessica Reaves

With a weak script, utterly unsympathetic characters and a nonsensical plot, it can barely keep plodding along. Read full review

John McMurtrie

An overwrought weepie, it may be inspired by the recent dramas of Pedro Almodóvar, but it comes off as Almodóvar Lite -- muy lite. Read full review

Kyle Smith
