Dex Wesley Parra Austin Chronicle Whatever Cocoon lacks from a screenplay that drags, especially during the middle third, it accounts for in its visual and aural aesthetic. Mar 14, 2023 Full Review Louisa Moore Screen Zealots Writer-director Caroline Fioratti‘s strong storytelling and keen sense of understanding for her topical subject matter make this film a compelling (if sometimes uncomfortable and unpleasant) viewing experience. Mar 20, 2023 Full Review Kristy Strouse Film Inquiry Caroline Fioratti paints a harsh but vivid picture. While the narrative may not always feel cohesive, through a unique visual style and a terrific lead performance, it has a devastating young adult presence that creates a large, looming chasm.  Mar 19, 2023 Full Review Stephanie Malone Morbidly Beautiful An agonizing and affecting work of spectacular filmmaking, "My Drywall Cocoon" is an engrossing, unbearably tense Brazilian mystery thriller. Extraordinary in every way, it will keep searching for answers to questions you wish you never asked. Rated: 5/5 Mar 17, 2023 Full Review David Lynch KENS 5 TV (San Antonio) "There isn’t much worth poking through here, but at least the people who live in this story seem to know that for themselves." Mar 17, 2023 Full Review Alan French Sunshine State Cineplex With the unique color palettes and use of trip-induced visuals, it truly stands out. However, the rest of the film struggles to feel as unique. Rated: 4/10 Mar 12, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
