Kevin Maher Times (UK) It's preposterous, yes, but so smartly done. Rated: 4/5 Jan 26, 2021 Full Review Cath Clarke Guardian Throughout the film I had the niggling feeling that at the bottom of it is a deep dislike of women -- or, at the very least, a total lack of understanding. Rated: 2/5 Jan 21, 2021 Full Review Alix Turner Ready Steady Cut A Danish drama/thriller about degrees of bullying and the impact people can have on each other. Plenty to admire and plenty to think about, but the writing in some scenes lets it down badly. Rated: 3/5 Feb 18, 2021 Full Review George Nash Flickering Myth Nielsen's film leaves a rather underwhelming taste on the tongue. The final minutes, however intricately plotted, however neatly tied to an earlier throwaway moment, ultimately fall back into familiar genre territory. Feb 6, 2021 Full Review Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall The provocative ways these characters react raise some issues to think about. So it's a shame that neither Nielsen's direction nor Torpe's script allows a female perspective to emerge, essentially defining everything through the eyes of the men. Rated: 2/5 Jan 29, 2021 Full Review Ella Kemp NME (New Musical Express) The Exception follows a few familiar tropes and leans a little too much on basic philosophical understandings to create intrigue around its ideas of evil - but still, it's gripping stuff.
