Critic Reviews

  • Steven Winn, San Francisco Chronicle

    Well-observed but self-consciously studied family drama.

  • Desson Thomson, Washington Post

    Practices a writerly movie poetry, which -- at its best -- is delicately elegiac.

  • Todd McCarthy, Variety

    Eventually drowns from dramatic inertia.

  • Willie Waffle, WaffleMovies.com

    an emotional movie that draws you in with its heart and ambition, even if the storytelling and dialogue need some help.

  • Daniel Wible, Film Threat

    If you're a lover of the finest in film acting and potent drama, Swimmers is one of those 'smaller' films you won't want to miss.
