Nick Allen RogerEbert.com [Summer White is] unable to make a compelling character study out of a boy's inability to communicate beyond some heavy breathing, clenched fists, and pyromania. Jan 29, 2020 Full Review Tomris Laffly Variety Patterson dances around tricky Freudian themes with nerve and grace, gradually approaching something astute about the boundaries and boundlessness of maternal affection. Jan 27, 2020 Full Review David Rooney Hollywood Reporter This taut first narrative feature is virtually a romantic-triangle scenario, its heat, anger and hurt persuasively played by a fine trio of actors. Jan 27, 2020 Full Review Erick Estrada Cinegarage The growing adolescent fury is palpable and well executed.
