The New York Times
An agonizingly familiar refrain, but one that the young Argentine director Alexis Dos Santos relates with such tenderness and with so much ethereal beauty that it feels like something fresh. - 80
Variety
An exquisitely tender tale of two young Euro immigrants trying to find themselves (but not each other) in contempo London, Unmade Beds has a lively, romantic spirit that recalls the playfulness and spontaneity of the French New Wave. - 70
Village Voice
Unmade Beds revels in its art-pop sensibility, bursting with the spirit of Jean-Luc Godard and Wong Kar-wai. - 60
The Hollywood Reporter
More atmospheric than compelling. - 60
New York Daily News
Overly familiar but endearing nonetheless, this coming-of-age indie from Alexis Dos Santos is most likely to appeal to those who recognize themselves in the story's lost heroes. - 60
Empire
Light and entertaining, if a little clunky at times. - 50
Film Threat
While elements of the film may be a little cliché, I found it highly relatable. It would be dishonest to say I didn’t enjoy myself. - 40
Time Out
The film and its young cast exude a charismatic irreverence, yet a hazy, perfunctory mood dulls the playful proceedings.
