Una's well-matched leads bring an uncomfortable story fearlessly to life, keeping the movie consistently gripping as it navigates the tricky journey from stage to screen.

Katie Walsh

Los Angeles Times

It's at once talky yet emotionally remote, and while posing a risky set of questions about sexual abuse, power and relationships, the experience is an unsatisfactory and draining slog.

Kevin Maher

The Times (UK)

It's a difficult film, and at times an ambiguous one. And appropriately so, because it's Una's film.

Rated: 4/5

Rolling Stone

Una is a film of seismic shocks built to make an audience squirm. Mission accomplished.

Rated: 2.5/4

Lurches headlong into controversial territory, unflinchingly presenting a painful story that offers no easy answers.

[Una] mostly succeeds, thanks to fine acting and a smart reconstruction of its source's setting.

In particular, Mendelsohn is a wonder to behold, moving from guilty to lovestruck to terrified.

Well, that’s an awkward family movie night. Taboo subject matter that thrives mostly on the shock value before taking some detours and losing steam long before reaching an ending that was as shocking as a mouse fart.

Just "Meh". Interesting thematic, but failed development.

This is a slow unraveling burn with an unsatisfying ending but despite that it kept me engaged and each scene was nicely timed and never feeling rushed or overstretched. The movie most consists of only has 2 actors and 1 supporting main and they all were excellent. This movie excelled at showing the disturbing complexities in feelings and emotions that can result from a hunter prey relationship.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
