Jonathan Romney Sight & Sound The film is richly cast, with MacKay’s taut facial geometry marking the anxiety and the terrible shifts of realisation that Nick experiences. Oct 4, 2025 Full Review Mark Hanson Slant Magazine The film plunges us into a world that feels simultaneously naturalistic and otherworldly. Rated: 3/4 Sep 17, 2025 Full Review Sam Bodrojan IndieWire “Rose of Nevada” feels like a folk tale. It is the kind of movie that I would half-expect to have an entirely different ending each time I see it. Rated: B+ Sep 8, 2025 Full Review Sarah Manvel Movies We Texted About Tells a complex and complicated story with the greatest of ease, and manages to be both utterly ordinary and entirely supernatural. Rose of Nevada is such a strange, moody surprise that it will haunt you, in the best way. Oct 31, 2025 Full Review Katie Hogan FILMHOUNDS Magazine It's a fascinating story, full of mystery and grief, but you could be left with a sinking feeling of hopelessness, depending if you're an optimist or a pessimist. Rated: 4/5 Oct 21, 2025 Full Review Tomas Trussow The Lonely Film Critic The level of craft on display thanks to Jenkin is exquisite, of that there is no doubt. He is a man awash in ideas that are relevant to this world and churning with potential, and he moreover understands the vision he wants to impart to us. Rated: 3.5/5 Oct 21, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
