[An] assured hybrid of backwoods thriller and fantasy ... Go to Full Review
Deborah Young The Hollywood Reporter 09/18/2017
It fascinatingly blurs the line between fantasy and reality, from the eerie intro all the way through to a surprise finale that raises goosebumps. Go to Full Review

2.5/4
[Director Govinda] Van Maele is in no rush to get to the climax and he takes a long time to begin to build suspense, but the slow burn pays off in the end. Go to Full Review

Lovely every moment she is on screen, gutsy and vulnerable, cheerful and damaged... Go to Full Review

You'll have a much better time with this movie if you go in knowing it's more of a mystery than a thriller; it's unusual, but never boring. Go to Full Review
Michael McNeely That Shelf 02/02/2019
The ingredients for a good yarn are here: too bad Maele's focus is on getting that perfect shot. Go to Full Review

Benedito Luiz A 12/17/2022 Slow burning!! Terrific cast and cinematography! See more 10/08/2018 I find it quite interesting. See more 03/06/2018 Gutland: A drifter with a checkered past wanders into a sleepy farming community in rural Luxembourg looking for work. There, he discovers the bucolic, close-knit village has a past of its own. Although this EVENTUAL thriller grows about as slow as the village’s surrounding corn fields (at least until the final act), and the story is somewhat predictable, it does provide a nice glimpse into life in rural Europe and the ties that bind their small town inhabitants. Frederick Lau and Vicky Krieps (Phantom Thread) are also quite charismatic onscreen and Lau cleans up pretty well too. B- ——- TheReelness.com See more Read all reviews
