Daily Telegraph (UK)

The film's visual assets are clearer than its batty storytelling.

Guardian

The movie isn't perfect and arguably doesn't quite come together at the end, but it works as an intense and bizarre psychological drama, and the Kent landscape is gorgeously evoked.

Beautifully shot and mostly well executed. Lea and her cast are worth looking out for.

Both Bottomley and Madeley are excellent at capturing the subtleties and downright insanity of the characters they play.

Observer (UK)

I liked this modest film, its unusual setting, its new-folk music (by Troubadour Rose) and its conscious echoes of A Streetcar Named Desire.

Shadows on the Wall

Aside from the first-rate cinematography and editing, it's is so disappointingly arch that we struggle to believe anything, even as it touches on important themes.

Yes, liked this one. Lowlife and gritty, and mainly about two sisters and their relationship, it rang true and gave a positive spin to hard lives. Who picks those strawberries? People like these.

A very weird British film about 2 unusual sisters. one is odd the other a bit psychotic.

Possibly one of the most boring films I've seen in quite some time. I was drawn in by the title and the fact that the main character poses as a fine arts student from Scarborough at the start of the film, but it's all downhill from there on.

Not alot happens here but the scenery is good. This was more of a tv drama than a film

This is not a feel good film, nor does it tr;y to create any beautiful locations despite being set in the 'Garden of England' county. The sibling relationship is intense but not the most appealing to watch.

Whilst not without flaws, Strawberry Fields is well shot and offers some engaging performances. It may have nothing particularly original to offer, but its certainly worth a watch.
