Critic Reviews

• Mike Hale, New York Times

  The Carrils are so inexpressive and the script so sketchy that we never have much of a stake in figuring it out.

• Stephen Garrett, Time Out New York

  What's refreshing about Pascal-Alex Vincent's dramatically thin but richly atmospheric feature debut is that it recognizes the essential truth of the conceit: all seminal voyages are journeys of heightened awareness, as visceral as they are emotional.

• Nicolas Rapold, Village Voice

  It's usually a dangerous sign when a director casting about for an idea gets fascinated by twins.

• Derek Malcolm, This is London

  When the French are pretentious, the word gets a whole new meaning.

• Rich Cline, Shadows on the Wall

  With its meandering, unfocussed narrative, this sometimes feels more like beautiful moving wallpaper than an actual film. But even without much plot, it's a fascinating exploration of identity.

• Josh Winning, Total Film

  An award-winner for his short films, Vincent makes the stretch to feature length comfortably enough, even if his meditation on the limits of brotherly love does allow its imagery of wild European landscapes to do more of the talking...

• Peter Bradshaw, Guardian [UK]

  The movie always looks good with an inspired comic-book animated opening sequence, but there is something preposterous about the leads and their smouldering emotions.

• Nick Davis, Nick's Flick Picks

  It's almost hard to see the movie inside all the recycled beats and diaphanous construction, much less to feel its pulse.

• Ed Gonzalez, Slant Magazine

  Represents the most attractively shot twin porn off all time.
