Wendy Ide Screen International There's an ageless, timeless quality to the rhythms and routines of life on Thomas Reid's cattle farm. Oct 22, 2018 Full Review Donald Clarke Irish Times Ward's picture remains unconditionally besotted with this stubborn, brave rebel of the old school. Rated: 4/5 Oct 22, 2018 Full Review Paddy Kehoe RTÉ (Ireland) The Lonely Battle of Thomas Reid - one man who simply wants to stay in his house and in his fields - is in sum a fascinating portrait of a determined son of the land. Rated: 3.5/5 Oct 31, 2018 Full Review Rob Aldam Backseat Mafia He's a unique character, but what makes it such a hypnotic and mesmerising documentary is the way it's so delicately constructed. Oct 31, 2018 Full Review Chris Wasser The Herald (Ireland) With The Lonely Battle of Thomas Reid, Irish director Feargal Ward has crafted one of the most unique and, perhaps, indefinable pieces of cinema this year. Rated: 4/5 Oct 22, 2018 Full Review Vladan Petkovic Cineuropa The questions that [the film] deals with, including its protagonist, are revealed from an original and peculiar angle, highlighting unexpected details.
