Killing Eleanor feels original yet familiar, telling a new story with characters we feel like we know. Despite their weaknesses and shortcomings, it’s impossible not to care about and root for them.

"Killing Eleanor" might be a slow burner that doesn't have any major high points but it works as a drama that gives you enough to ponder over long after it has ended.

Rated: 6/10

My gosh the performances are stellar. There's a telephone scene that's just fantastic for the contrast between the dialog and the visual subtext. Just a lovely film.

A beautifully written original script brought to life by a talented director and an amazing cast - great chemistry. It sucks you in, carries you to the credits and leaves you primed for some great discussion! What more can you ask from a good movie? Difficult to believe Eleanor is their first feature.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

Saw this at a festival and watched it again as soon as it came out. It was even better the second time. You'll laugh and cry and feel uplifted in the end. It's a very powerful film.
