Recommandations

Time Out
These characters are more than what we see on the surface, and it's thanks to Leigh's rigorous yet generous eye that we never just gawk at the drama. - 100
Empire
Measured in pace, yet thoroughly gripping and completely accessible. The title soft-sells the picture, but it's among the best of this or any year. And Manville should clear some shelf space for well-deserved awards. - 91
The A.V. Club
The performances are winning, the story is surprising without relying on unlikely twists, and the relationships are the richest and most nuanced since Leigh's "Secrets & Lies." - 80
Boxoffice Magazine
Mike Leigh has a knack of making the ordinary extraordinary. Here he deals with themes of class, family and depression over a period of a year, breaking it up into seasonal chapters. - 80
New York Magazine (Vulture)
Another year, another Mike Leigh gem. - 80
Los Angeles Times
It may sound commonplace, but in the hands of master filmmaker Mike Leigh, the everyday becomes extraordinary. - 80
New York Daily News
The perfect haven from the cheap ironies and cruel indifference we all have to field both in life and, far too often, at the movies. - 75
