Plays distressingly like a photographed off-Broadway drama. Go to Full Review

In Our Nature feels like a throwback to the stagy dramas of a past age. It's just too bad that there's not much at stake for anyone involved. Go to Full Review
Matthew Odam Austin American-Statesman 12/13/2012
C+
The characters in this family drama are not given enough backstory or nuance to make their problems feel real, and none of the characters warrants much interest or compassion. Go to Full Review
Scott Weinberg ScreenAnarchy 12/10/2012
The movie earns high grades for allowing four strong actors to work their way through some basic but interesting obstacles that must of us can relate to in one way or another. Go to Full Review

07/07/2014 In our Nature a dramatic tale about a son and father relationship that the son had not got over the ending of his father and mothers marriage breakup. In most cases books that turn into movies are ok but this should have stayed a book if it was a book. Its a straight forward dram tale and does not have anything special no action etc.. This movie is not rated but i would say its for the adults only. Its plane and flat lines all through the movie. See more 05/25/2013 A simple and well-crafted character drama about relationships and the expectations, choices, and regrets that come with them. See more 04/17/2013 Meh. Actors good. Film just meh. See more 03/03/2013 "In Our Nature" a well crafted little indie flick, but a little derivative at times. I respected the slow pace and realist dialogue-driven conflicts. "In Our Nature" is very much a film about what we do and don't say, and how those actions and non-actions are interpreted by those around us. The film looks at human need and interaction in a sometimes obvious way, but the performances back up the film's themes well. See more 02/07/2013 Not the best dysfunctional film you'll ever see, but certainly not the worst either. I did enjoy the acting in this film and felt it was natural especially in the awkward moments. Although I wouldn't recommend anyone view it with elders. Conservatives either.. Although, with an open mind it could help one to realize the important things in life. No matter the issue, a lot of conflicts have little importance when it comes down to it. Especially family or more importantly love. Value can be found in this film. See more 12/06/2012 beautiful film with a great cast. See more Read all reviews
