Joe Leydon Variety An initially intriguing but ultimately exhausting tale of grieving parents left quite literally dazed and confused in the wake of their young son's death. Sep 29, 2013 Full Review David Lewis San Francisco Chronicle Orser, to his credit, never resorts to psychobabble, cheap sentiment or emotional shortcuts. Rated: 3/4 Sep 27, 2013 Full Review Sara Stewart New York Post It often seems like an acting workshop: Behave as if you are the parent of a dead child. Rated: 1.5/4 Sep 27, 2013 Full Review Ron Wilkinson It's Just Movies Too much of the same emotion and too little back-story doom this movie to tedium. Rated: 6/10 Oct 6, 2013 Full Review Brian Orndorf Blu-ray.com It's a difficult sit, and not nearly as moving as it should be, with its central idea of lost communication buried under layers of artificiality, damming the mournful flow. Rated: C Sep 26, 2013 Full Review Christine N. Ziemba Paste Magazine Though mourning is a part of the human cycle, Morning is not an easy film to watch -- save for the great acting by the entire cast. Rated: 7.3/10 Sep 26, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member The film is full of grief just like House Of Sand And Fog and What Dreams May Come. It was a fine film for those who don't always watch Disney films. Glad it wasn't more than 90 minutes based on the heavy content. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
