Critic Reviews
-
David Denby, New Yorker
Fish Tank may begin as a patch of lower-class chaos, but it turns into a commanding, emotionally satisfying movie, comparable to such youth-in-trouble classics as The 400 Blows.
-
Ian Buckwalter, NPR
A bold new entry in the long-standing British tradition of disquieting social realism.
-
Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune
The characters are guarded, and as we come to understand them scene by scene, they become ever harder to sort into convenient categories of hero and villain.
-
Tom Long, Detroit News
Writer-director Andrea Arnold, working in British lower-class realism, still finds wondrous moments of connection in Mia's life.
-
David Germain, Associated Press
Writer-director Andrea Arnold has created something so real and raw, you may come away with a twinge of guilty voyeurism, a sense of peering too closely and impolitely into other people's lives.
