Boyd van Hoeij The Hollywood Reporter Keizer proves a mesmerizing presence throughout. Feb 19, 2018 Full Review Vladan Petkovic Cineuropa Cobain is a gentle and thoughtful film that deals with some rough subject matter, and bridging the sensibility and topic are top-notch performances. Sep 16, 2020 Full Review C.J. Prince The Cinessential Every piece pops into place as it should, and all the dramatic beats play out as expected, with the only exception being the absurd direction the story takes. Jun 5, 2019 Full Review Jared Mobarak The Film Stage The film is great at portraying its authentic emotions, but the places they come from can sometimes feel abrupt in this deliberately paced drama. Rated: C+ Feb 19, 2018 Full Review Ben Croll Screen International A naturalistic portrait of a willful adolescent and his steadfast devotion to the troubled addict he calls mum.
