Derek Malcolm London Evening Standard As small-scale as Boxing Day is, it sustains an unusual atmosphere and an emotional charge of which Tolstoy might have approved - and both performances are memorably etched into it. Rated: 4/5 Dec 21, 2012 Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian Perhaps no movie version could find an equivalent for the original's final lines, but this is another arresting adaptation from Rose. Rated: 4/5 Dec 20, 2012 Full Review Robbie Collin Daily Telegraph (UK) Huston and Jacobs have a marvellously spluttery chemistry, even as events in the mountains reduce them to a pair of wretched creatures, clinging to one another while the cold night gnaws their bones. Rated: 4/5 Dec 20, 2012 Full Review Ard Vijn ScreenAnarchy It is a simple story told in a semi-experimental style which never really takes off, but neither does it detract from the performances in it and on that strength this film is very impressive indeed. Jan 14, 2020 Full Review Debbie Lynn Elias Behind The Lens Boxing Day is emotional beauty at its purest. Nov 27, 2019 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com The rather blandly observed scenario is kept sharply afloat by the two lead performers. Aug 22, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Is an important movie for all of us, we can learn about representation from it and also enjoy a beautiful Christmas movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Boring, bad acting, pointless. I think unless you read the book and knew of some deeper philosophical multi layering the movie is like a boring journal entry. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
