Critics Consensus

Trespass Against Us benefits from Michael Fassbender and Brendan Gleeson's typically strong performances, even when they aren't quite enough to balance the story's narrative drift and awkward tonal shifts.

Adam Nayman

Cinema Scope

On-the-nose-ness, multiplied across the film's running time, undermines the film's sturdy dramatic arc and absorbing local texture.

Wendy Ide

Observer (UK)

What sets Trespass Against Us apart is the fact that its milieu, the Traveller community, is one rarely seen outside Gypsy wedding-style TV series.

Rated: 3/5

Kevin Maher

Times (UK)

This hit-and-miss crime drama never quite finds its feet, despite an intriguing West Country setting, some attempts at social commentary and two meaty roles for Ireland's finest thesps, Brendan Gleeson and Michael Fassbender.

Rated: 2/5

Don Shanahan

Every Movie Has a Lesson

On the lam, the film too often grinds its gears and dulls its edgy tone. The turn-over-a-new-leaf elements of parental challenges lack engagement come up empty.

Rated: 3/5

Michael J. Cinema

Director Adam Smith wallows a little too long in Chad's plight, but with two ever-watchable actors like Fassbender and Gleeson, 'Trespass Against Us' rises from the mire just enough.

Rated: 3/5

It's a shame they're not given material that draws out parts we don't know. This talent combination ought to surprise instead of simply satisfy.

I found this movie to be absolutely awful slow, boring and ridiculous to say the least. What a complete waste of my time & talented actors. Outside of the actors, this movie is complete rubbish!!!

I am Dominic, originally from the Philippines, however, I have spent my whole life in the USA and have been an honest man all my life. When I came across a post on how to earn money using trading and mining bots, I felt it was the perfect time to give crypto investment a chance. I contacted the team, and they read out their working terms. I remember investing a total of $38,500.00 with their mining bot but anytime I wanted to access my funds, I was always asked to pay more. Weeks passed and I realized I had been outsmarted and conned. Everything looks real, and that's why even when I was asked by a coworker to contact ( Cybergenie(@)Cyberservices(.)com ( WhatsApp+)(1_2-5_2-5_1203_91), I was skeptical. Getting in touch with CYBER GENIE HACK PRO turned out to be the best thing that has happened to me. I was able to claim all I had invested in their platform within the hours I hired them and met their terms with their help. CYBER GENIE HACK PRO is unarguably the best team of hackers out here on the internet if you ever need a legit hacker for hire..

You'll either love it or hate it. You'll either understand it or you won't. Not going to bother explaining why for either, but I encourage people to try it.

Racconto che nasce e muore con i due protagonisti e con il loro rapporto; tutto il resto purtroppo resta troppo di contorno e non viene sviluppato abbastanza. Certamente Fassbender e Gleeson riescono a rendere partecipe lo spettatore con i loro dialoghi, dubbi e litigi. Però si ha la sensazione che tanto del materiale più originale non venga trattato nel modo giusto; specialmente in relazione allo stile di vita del "campo". Molto tenera la sequenza finale, senza grandi colpi di scena, seppure forse un po' troppo sbrigativo il modo di arrivarci.
