Although Coyote Lake doesn't deviate too much from the narrative you would expect, it's the details Seligman incorporates throughout that make this thriller a promising debut.

Variety

A sluggish mix of thriller and drama that lacks the suspense required in one department and the depth needed on the other.

Coyote Lake is hardly a shallow enterprise. Its still waters still run pleasurably deep.

Rated: 3/5

Minutes in, it's clear that Coyote Lake is not your run-of-the-mill U.S.-Mexico border story...you get a sense of a filmmaker truly in control of the tone of her film, a bellwether, one hopes, of even more assured films to come.

Good indie film. I really watched because of Camila, but it turned out to be a great movie with a dark ending.

The film is carried along by the strength of Mendes' emotionally complex, restrained performance that makes clear that Ester is as much victim as accomplice.
