Catherine Bray

Variety

Though it unfortunately lacks the narrative momentum of top-tier gumshoe pics, it’s no hardship spending time with Frankie, thanks to a neatly judged performance from Mastroianni.

Angie Han

The Hollywood Reporter

As painstakingly crafted as this mystery-thriller is, it remains something to be admired from a distance rather than felt viscerally.

Gazer is the kind of debut that should restore your lost faith in independent cinema.

Rated: A-

Jim Vorel

Paste Magazine

Gazer evokes deep feelings of loss and hopelessness, giving a depth of pain for Mastroianni to strive against--there’s just not quite enough for her to do.

Rated: 6.2/10

Daniel Kurland

Bloody Disgusting

Gazer has its heart in the right place and effectively taps into the paranoid energy of a bygone era. However, there are too many imprecise moments that immerse Frankie – and the audience – in darkness and then struggle to find their way out.

Rated: 2.5/5
