Peter Debruge Variety Lin handles that inexorable slide toward tragedy with commendable sensitivity. It’s a grim story, told in such a way that some good can come of it. Jun 9, 2025 Full Review Lovia Gyarkye The Hollywood Reporter Based on a true story, Rosemead compassionately captures the various layers that come with trying to find support. The film’s intimate scope makes this a worthwhile portrayal of an under-discussed sliver of American life. Jun 9, 2025 Full Review Megan McLachlan The Contending You’ve never seen [Lucy Liu] like this before. Known for her steely gaze and confident swagger, Liu is nowhere to be found in Rosemead, as Irene limps and lumbers, looking exhausted with every shuffle. Jun 23, 2025 Full Review Damon Wise Deadline Hollywood Daily Lin, working with screenwriter Marilyn Fu, handles this with great sensitivity, both affording Liu the headspace she needs to deliver a performance of quiet power. Jun 13, 2025 Full Review Hayley Croke Loud and Clear Reviews Rosemead aims to add context, not delegate judgment, to a tragic true-life story. Lucy Liu effortlessly embodies Irene with a quiet contemplativeness and increasing desperation that will leave you speechless as the credits roll. Rated: 4/5 Jun 10, 2025 Full Review Alyssa Christian Next Best Picture Lin has packed a great deal into the film's 97-minute runtime, yet it mostly successfully depicts these weighty subjects in an impactful, sensitive manner, anchored by Lucy Liu's powerful central performance.
