      Curtis Woloschuk Paste Magazine Remarkably assured in terms of both tone and craft, A Little Closer suggests that Petock is poised to take a great leap forward with his next feature. Rated: 7.7/10 Jul 19, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews

      Audience Member Amazingly crafted drama about members of a family individually exploring their sexuality, while coming together to love and support as one. Realistic portrayal of three different stages in life. 70 minutes filled to the brim with beautiful, raw, honest moments. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Coming in at an unimpressive seventy minutes, you know you're not going to do well when you have to use filler shots every five minutes, most of which are Petock pointlessly trying to be arty. The story of Closer is bland, predictable and tedious, and while you can see what the director is trying to do, the poor dialogue and wooden leads do nothing to help. Numerous scenes drag and go nowhere, making this excruciating viewing at a glacial pace. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
