Matthew Simpson ForReel Movie News And Reviews Writer and director Zoe Pepper has created an excellent dark comedy that borders at times on being a straight up horror film. Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 16, 2025 Full Review Will Bjarnar Next Best Picture There’s something to be said for Pepper and Co. committing to their one and only bit with hopes that audiences might be inclined to believe that the folks on screen actually want to wring each other’s necks. But “Birthright” never reaches that stage Rated: 3/10 Jun 20, 2025 Full Review Lucas Moore JVS Media & Productions/Team JVS Birthright has some interesting ideas on what housing and privilege looks like for the new generation but these ideas are never fully flesh out which leaves you feeling the movie is incomplete. Rated: D Jun 18, 2025 Full Review Frank J. Avella The Contending Zoe Pepper has created an original, startling and anxiety-inducing debut feature— a true horror film, social satire and dark comedy look at familial dysfunction...Jeffery’s progressively unhinged, off-the-rails performance is most riveting to watch. Rated: A- Jun 18, 2025 Full Review Olga Artemyeva ScreenAnarchy Zoe Pepper has a distinctive voice, and her debut feature, for all of its black, absurdist humor, digs deep into the raw material of reality and the darkness that simmers underneath the façade of familiar relationships.
