Richard Whittaker Austin Chronicle Andrews does get the broad strokes and details of this kind of rural life right enough to still remain engaging. Oct 1, 2024 Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com The relentless tone of “Bring Them Down” feels a bit monotonous to this viewer, but it’s worth seeing just for the work of Abbott and Keoghan. Sep 27, 2024 Full Review Chase Hutchinson TheWrap The saving grace of the film’s world comes in the form of its two leads who, despite all the drudgery that they must push through, create something gripping. Sep 27, 2024 Full Review Katie Smith-Wong Flick Feast An intense and incredibly bleak thriller with solid performances from Abbott and Keoghan but its premise - fuelled by a lack of communication - feels frustratingly unimaginative. Rated: 3/5 Oct 17, 2024 Full Review Mireia Mullor Digital Spy Although the plot feels insufficient at times, the themes of generational trauma, toxic masculinity and tradition against modernity are delivered with brutal efficiency if not always depth or precision. Rated: 3/5 Oct 15, 2024 Full Review Sharai Bohannon Dread Central Bring Them Down is one of the movies you cannot help but to sit with for a spell. It also continues both Abbott and Keoghan’s individual streaks of oddly troubling cinema. Most surprisingly, it is a fairly solid first feature from Andrews. Rated: 3/5 Oct 11, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
