Miriam Balanescu Sight & Sound It’s disarmingly strange and freewheeling in tone, undercut by a ruthlessly dark humour. May 8, 2024 Full Review Ed Potton Times (UK) The film may be full of holes but it’s highly quotable. Rated: 3/5 Apr 3, 2024 Full Review Cath Clarke Guardian What the movie does have going for it is a terrific performance by Shirley Henderson... Rated: 3/5 Apr 2, 2024 Full Review Jack Martin Film Feeder Perhaps viewers who belong in the same tax bracket as these characters will be able to identity more with them and their situation, but that’s kind of why The Trouble with Jessica ultimately doesn’t work. Rated: 2/5 Aug 5, 2024 Full Review MaryAnn Johanson Flick Filosopher The pleasures of this black comedy about London real estate and the hypocrisies of posh professionals lie in the terrific cast, especially Shirley Henderson, embodying entertainingly horrible people. Rated: 3/5 Apr 12, 2024 Full Review Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall Mixing slapstick with dark drama, this offbeat British film is tricky to connect with on a satisfying level. But that seems to be intentional, as director Matt Winn delights in putting his characters through a moral and legal wringer. Rated: 3/5 Apr 9, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
