A former war photographer's intense affair with a younger man in a remote Welsh village forces her to exorcise the ghosts of her past.

Kate Muir

Times (UK)

The problem is that most of the high drama takes place secondhand on grainy war video and the domestic story is rather flat.

Rated: 2/5

Leslie Felperin

Guardian

Insult is added to injury by the discordant piano plinking away in the background like a Brazilian telenovela soundtrack, and the sub-audible whispering meant to suggest the heroine's tortured thoughts.

Rated: 1/5

Little White Lies

Hammy dialogue mars this earnest rural melodrama of a woman fleeing from war.

Rated: 2/5

Daniel Green

CineVue

There are a number of grating directorial decisions that almost lead Delight down the garden path and into the fathoms of the unwatchable, including an incredibly repetitive score and some unbelievably on-the-nose dialogue.

Rated: 2/5

Andrew Lowry

Total Film

The low budget shows in some variable acting (Balibar is great, though) and there is some clumsy dialogue, but writer/director Gareth Jones does deserve some credit for ambition.

Rated: 3/5
