Adam Solomons indieWire If only Late Shift had more of a story and was eager to spend longer with its characters, it might make use of its solid lead performance and claustrophobic setting. But its attempt to preach runs cold and only shines a light on what might’ve been. Rated: C+ Feb 20, 2025 Full Review Guy Lodge Variety In its cool, propulsive procedural tracking of ward activity, Late Shift quite sufficiently makes its point regarding the monumental challenge and value of Floria’s work, and that of thousands like her. Feb 20, 2025 Full Review Fionnuala Halligan Screen International Occasionally schematic, albeit only in the service of pricking our consciences, Petra Volpe’s tense drama is a shot in the arm of undiluted empathy for the over-stretched, under-valued nursing profession. Feb 20, 2025 Full Review Stephanie Bunbury Deadline Hollywood Daily Anyone who has seen Leonie Benesch at work knows she is one of best actresses now working... Here, she is simply marvelous. Feb 20, 2025 Full Review Alex Billington FirstShowing.net It's a brilliant tribute to many amazing, overworked nurses by showing us exactly what their work is like every single day. This is seriously powerful filmmaking. Rated: 8.5/10 Feb 19, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
