Critics Consensus

Proxima sometimes struggles to communicate its themes, but worthy intentions and a powerful central performance from Eva Green more than compensate.

Proxima is a companion piece to Ad Astra, both using journeys to space as a metaphor to examine the conflicting responsibilities of work and family and the longing for connection.

Bernard Ozarowski

Loud and Clear Reviews

Proxima is a strong character study that benefits from a more human depiction of an astronaut than the genre usually allows, bolstered by the great Eva Green.

Rated: 4/5

In Their Own League

Winocour’s script is sensitive and empathetic, inspired by Winocour’s relationship with her own young daughter.

Rated: 4/5

FILMHOUNDS Magazine

the film is a quiet, understated film that is more about a woman chasing a dream and trying to be a good mother than it is about science fiction.

Rated: 3/5

Narratively routine when trying to live up its established potential heart monotonously met, it acts as dedication towards its subject matter with a decently respectful focus elevated by Eve Green's solid performance. (B)

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
