It’s a movie that sneaks up on you like great fiction, blending theme and character in a way that allows it to live in your mind after you see it, rolling around what it means to both the people in it and your own life.

Rated: 4/4

New York Post

However well acted, or not, it’s hard to see yourself in any of these fiscally unencumbered, cagey artists.

The film’s multi-layered structure supports a familiar but often profoundly affecting tale of intergenerational family conflict.

By the end of the film, Sentimental Value stood out to me as a wonderful journey between a father and a daughter struggling to find a way to communicate with one another.

Rated: 8/10

Christopher Llewellyn Reed

Film Festival Today

Thrillers come in all shapes and sizes; "Sentimental Value" is of the emotional-rollercoaster variety, as spirited in its highs and lows as the best action films.

Rated: 4.5/5

While the film doesn’t quite have the same sense of [Worst Person In The World], Sentimental Value exudes the confidence of assured hands here to stay.
