      Brad Wheeler Globe and Mail Sitting on the Edge of Marlene loses its way occasionally, but its aim is ultimately true. Rated: 3/4 Mar 20, 2015 Full Review Radheyan Simonpillai NOW Toronto Marlene is a drama queen in constant emotional flux, threatening to blow down the straw house the film constructs around her with every maniacal laugh or violent roar. Rated: 2/5 Mar 19, 2015 Full Review Bruce DeMara Toronto Star Next time out, Valine needs to find a story with greater nuance and range. A film of such unrelenting darkness makes for a dreary cinematic experience. Rated: 1.5/4 Mar 19, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews
