Critic Reviews
-
Gunnar Rehlin, Variety
A moving drama about loss and possible consolation set on an island during one summer, Suddenly hooks the viewer from start to finish.
-
David Stratton, At the Movies (Australia)
The backdrop of a small island community during the all-too-brief summer is well captured, but in the end the film lacks the originality of, say, Kieslowski's Three Colors Blue, which had a similar theme.
-
Louise Keller, Urban Cinefile
A potent drama that tackles the subject of grief and turns it into a miracle of a film.
-
Andrew L. Urban, Urban Cinefile
The film's rich but subtle textures, the deliberate pace and the sparse yet glorious setting all combine to make this a truly satisfying film for the discerning cinephile.
