The Film Stage
It can be a grueling experience considering the heavy subject matter, but there’s enough optimism to stave off boredom. - 50
The Hollywood Reporter
Despite Anna Schafer’s gripping performance in the lead role, this deeply personal effort is too narratively sluggish to sustain attention. - 50
Variety
Empathetic and yet ultimately too draggy to elicit much engagement with its paper-thin story, Elizabeth Blue proves at once well-intentioned and inert. - 50
Village Voice
Elizabeth inspires empathy, but it often feels like we’re being told to feel a certain way by being shown so much rather than being allowed to naturally warm up to her. - 50
Los Angeles Times
The film clearly comes from a place of deep knowledge about the intricacies of schizophrenia but has an unfortunate tendency to overexplain itself.
