Battle Royale With Cheese

For all the good that it does to discuss the issues surrounding the film with an insightful and thoughtful point of view, it does unfortunately have an uneven tone. This results in an ending which unfortunately doesn't have much to say...

High on Films

The Shattering relies heavily on these key players and the trauma they carry within themselves. Murisa Harba fails to capture the essence of this woman with a troubled mind.

Combustible Celluloid

The movie can feel a little slight due to its 77-minute running time, but it nevertheless feels exactly the right length.

Rated: 3.5/4

Movies in Focus

A very strong debut from Daria Nazarova, The Shattering is a small psychological thriller which delivers within the confines of its genre, however it's also a film which works incredibly well as a character piece.

Rated: 4/5

This movie made such an impression on me that I watched it twice. I let some time pass, forgot the name of it, found it again and I just finished watching it. I think it's an excellent portrayal of what a female narcissist looks like. I highly recommend, especially for women. It's very artfully shot, very cool throughout, also very subtle. You will notice things on a second viewing.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
