The Observer (UK)
Vividly rendered, and filled with tangible yearning, it strikes a balance between romantic passion and mundane domesticity, as the skin-prickling attraction of new love is tested by the day-to-day tribulations of real life. - 80
Empire

The Guardian
It’s a poignant and compelling Venn diagram of passion and heartache. - 80
The Irish Times
O’Connor, who caused a stir with his breakthrough turn in God’s Own Country, and Catalan actor Costa, share an easy and natural chemistry. They don’t blaze up the screen: they simmer and charm. - 80
Time Out
Costa and O’Connor are terrific. - 70
Screen Daily
A promising and emotionally mature romantic drama from British writer-director Harry Wootliff. - 70
