Critics Consensus

More visually impressive than narratively engaging, Vesper rewards patient viewers with immersive world-building and intelligent ideas.

Wendy Ide

Observer (UK)

It’s inventive and atmospheric, just not entirely coherent.

Rated: 3/5

Guardian

If you are going to see one post-apocalyptic, low-tech French-Lithuanian-Belgian film in English this year with Eddie Marsan as the heavy, make sure it’s this one.

Rated: 4/5

David Ehrlich

indieWire

A dramatically uneven but imaginatively vivid feat of post-apocalyptic world-building that flips the script on so many other stories like it.

Rated: B-

Tampa Bay Newspapers

Despite the fact that this indie project lacked the financial resources of some of Hollywood’s big-budget post-apocalyptic, action-heavy films, the filmmakers exceed expectations in terms of world-building, stunning visual effects, and storytelling.

It’s a fascinating film that discusses the reality and survival of the world through a much deeper lens with otherworldly visuals.

Common Sense Media

Incredibly imaginative and empowering, this sci-fi tale with a memorable 13-year-old main character shows that intelligence and compassion are heroic qualities.

Imagine having sex and the act being stopped before climax. Not a very satisfying thought, right? Well, when the credits started to roll at the end of this film, that's how I felt: unsatisfied! This movie had potential but left me wanting a satisfying climax and that's not the way I want to feel after nearly two hours. It teased big things but never delivered. Watch at your peril.

Yeah, a bit stumped by the high rating, which is why I watched it. Ok- the movie SET= unbelievably original. The 'Look' of the movie was about the only thing worth watching. The details of life in the environment were also exceptional. The problem is the story, it's really flimsy. The pacing is so slow, it was like watching a barge crash into a bridge but w/o the great ending. I didn't hate it- but wouldn't have missed never seeing it. Oh, the acting was all good, there just wasn't much to this one.
