Carlos Aguilar Los Angeles Times There's commendable bravery to the ambitious approach of this humbly budgeted production. Nov 26, 2021 Full Review Nick Allen RogerEbert.com Ayar is as experimental and its heart is big -- not only does the core of its story about mothers and daughters keep it stable, but its flourishes remain sincere overall. Mar 25, 2021 Full Review Ryan Lattanzio indieWire That some of the more saccharine plot points, like Ayar's affection for her daughter which briefly turns maddening, are dropped in service of weirder pursuits is almost a relief. Rated: B Mar 25, 2021 Full Review Michael Ward Should I See It ...a concept that packs great potential for a lasting impression. Rated: 3/5 Jul 17, 2021 Full Review Bobby LePire Film Threat The basic plot of Ayar has been told before, but never like this. Rated: 9.5/10 Apr 4, 2021 Full Review Peter Sobczynski eFilmCritic.com I am not entirely convinced that the end result completely works, but the combination of audaciousness and ambition that it demonstrates throughout certainly held my interest.
