      Hannah Strong Little White Lies The naturalistic camerawork and performances ground the film in realism, creating a wry dramedy that refuses to placate us with easy answers or condescension. Feb 24, 2024 Full Review Wendy Ide Screen International Matt and Mara is one of those films in which very little concrete happens, but the tingling possibility that something might makes it compelling. Feb 24, 2024 Full Review Erick Estrada Cinegarage An attempt at a romantic drama that goes cold as soon as it comes out of the bag. [Full review in Spanish] Mar 4, 2024 Full Review Connor Lightbody Next Best Picture While “Matt and Mara” is amusing and has some fascinating themes to make a movie around, it’s so disorganized that it seems like Radwanski accidentally discovered penicillin when trying to find smallpox. Rated: 7/10 Feb 28, 2024 Full Review Hector A. Gonzalez InSession Film It all adds to the silent, pocket-sized beauty that lingers during Matt and Mara. Rated: B- Feb 27, 2024 Full Review Stephen Saito Moveable Fest A sly and sharply observed comedy. Feb 26, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
