Dwight Brown DwightBrownInk.com Hard to determine if an audience will enjoy this unsettling drama. Too much misery for some. Not enough believable drama for others. Yet easy to like this young family. Rated: 2/4 Jun 25, 2024 Full Review Lovia Gyarkye Hollywood Reporter Even though Asomugha sometimes capitulates to clichéd narrative choices or visual tropes, The Knife maintains an impressively nauseating level of anxiety. Jun 11, 2024 Full Review Abe Friedtanzer The Film Experience There’s a lot to unpack in this film, which keeps audiences grounded in the moment as it never leaves the house. Rated: B+ Jul 27, 2024 Full Review Jason Adams Pajiba Exquisitely crafted and acted... Asomugha masterfully tightens the film’s noose around his characters and his viewers, and all of us are caught up together in the quicksand of an impossible situation. Jun 18, 2024 Full Review Murjani Rawls Substream Magazine Once ‘The Knife’ concludes, it’s more than a situation of misfortune. Instead, it feels like a piece of the American dream taken by forces outside this family’s control and shielded from any mode of impartiality. Jun 17, 2024 Full Review Mae Abdulbaki Screen Rant The Knife begins on tense note it delicately continues to escalate until the final moment, leaving us on edge throughout a stressful 82 minutes. Rated: 4/5 Jun 17, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
