Mark Kermode Kermode & Mayo's Film Review An interesting film about two potentially annoying people, that occasionally had flashes...but for most parts, I was just observing the relationship from the outside, not really understanding them. Dec 31, 2019 Full Review Clarisse Loughrey Independent (UK) [Director Tom] Cullen may pass through familiar waters with Pink Wall, but he still manages to uncover a few small, raw truths about ourselves along the way. Rated: 3/5 Dec 21, 2019 Full Review Ella Kemp Empire Magazine It's not the first of its kind, but compelling performances allow this portrait of a romance a genuine sense of passion. Rated: 4/5 Dec 20, 2019 Full Review Brendan Cassidy InSession Film Nothing the script gives us sounds new in any way and thus didn't feel fresh enough to elevate Pink Wall from being just an average relationship movie... Jul 9, 2024 Full Review Tracey Petherick Common Sense Media Strong language and adult themes in intense romantic drama. Rated: 3/5 May 16, 2020 Full Review Kaleem Aftab Cineuropa Ultimately, it's a movie that, like many relationships, promises a great deal initially but struggles to build on that.

Carrie G Bittersweet non-linear telling of a romantic 6 year relationship. Great portrayal of how people grow apart and try to hold on despite the flaws (poor communication, personal stagnation, and differing goals), because of the history, invested heart, and a personal desire for marriage and children. Masterful to come away wishing both protagonists future happiness. The soundtrack is great - immediately looked it up as credits were rolling. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Timing, as they say, is everything, as there's almost a sense of deja-vu in actor-turned-writer-director Tom Cullen's debut feature which lands in the same month as Marriage Story and Ordinary Love: another indie two-hander drama, this time, covering 6 years in a relationship between Tatiana Maslany's more ambitious producer Jenna and Jay Duplass's part-time DJ/photographer Leon, who's more of a slacker. Presented non-chronologically, oscillating and juxtaposing, say between their initial encounter in a club and a family gathering in a pub suddenly turned sour in Year 3 or a birthday party at friends that got confrontational in Year 2 or a surprise at home that leads to a sobering argument in Year 4 and so on, the film adopts a snapshot approach in its construction, often in long, static takes that allow the actors to free flow and interact in a seemingly improvisational manner. The result is typically indie and rather conventional for its genre but it's also an honest and authentic portrayal of the beginning and, perhaps, demise of a relationship between two real characters. Despite fine performances by both leads, and Maslany is always immensely watchable in practically anything she's in, there's something missing here that might make this film works better. Maybe there's a lacking of context from how their different approaches in life and work affect their relationship; or maybe it's because I never entirely relate to the two main characters, who could potentially resonate more with a younger audience. In the end, this film simply suffers from comparison with those two similarly themed films recently which carry a more impactful emotional punch, nevertheless this remains a nicely constructed piece of work and a promising debut for Cullen. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Watching two characters you know nothing about, talking in 6 different years about how they want to have a relationship and not able to find out what works for them, doesn´t make much for a interesting viewing experience. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
