Jessica Kiang Variety Nacar makes remarkably suspenseful drama out of one hyper-committed woman’s refusal to curry sympathy, as she crosses Rubicon after ethical Rubicon in one 24-hour period. Sep 18, 2023 Full Review Leila Latif indieWire A truly enticing and welcoming sub-90-minute treat. Between the social commentary, depth of composition and subtlety of performance, Nacar finds the distinctly delicious sweet spot. Rated: B Sep 5, 2023 Full Review Sheri Linden Hollywood Reporter Taut and affecting. Sep 4, 2023 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Hesitation Wound is a melancholy piece of cinema but such an accomplished one that it is a delight to watch. Rated: 4.5/5 Jun 7, 2024 Full Review Carmen Paddock Movies We Texted About Hesitation Wound is a confident, tightly wound drama that never devolves into either melodrama or thriller, treading its own nuanced path. Apr 11, 2024 Full Review Sarah Manvel In Their Own League “Hesitation Wound” didn’t give Canan’s relationships with both her client and her sister space to breathe, thereby allowing the full meaning of the metaphor better room to unfurl and enable the drama to be more properly felt.
