Kevin Maher Times (UK) The lack of subplots and supporting characters eventually becomes limiting but there are great performances, and you’ll admire Kavtaradze’s easygoing shooting style. Rated: 3/5 May 29, 2024 Full Review Jonathan Romney Financial Times What keeps Slow buoyant is the rapport between its very convincing leads — the wry, saturnine Cicėnas and Grinevičiūtė, who exudes humour and no-nonsense sensuality. Rated: 3/5 May 23, 2024 Full Review Rebecca Liu Guardian With strong performances by Grinevičiūtė and Cicėnas, Elena and Dovydas’s relationship unfolds at a gentle, unhurried pace, their growing attraction indicated by small details that reward attentive viewing. Rated: 3/5 May 21, 2024 Full Review Daniel Allen Loud and Clear Reviews Marija Kavtaradze has made an admirable romantic drama – slow-moving but tender. And its power comes from the way it portrays asexual relationships. Rated: 4/5 Jul 25, 2024 Full Review Abe Friedtanzer Cinema Daily US Slow is a welcome fresh and modern spin on the star-crossed lovers format, zooming in from some universal perspective on an extremely intimate story of two people whose romance shouldn’t be all that complicated. Rated: B+ Jul 24, 2024 Full Review Lindsay Pugh Seventh Row Slow is a tender, crushing film about two people in love who struggle to make their relationship work. Elena and Dovydas are instantly smitten with each other but run into a roadblock when Dovydas clarifies that he’s asexual. Jul 7, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
