Critic Reviews

It is poetic and unforgiving, romantic and stark. Death is the subject we edge around.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

Ineffably Australian and intriguingly (rather than annoyingly) artsy, Look Both Ways introduces a handful of people gobsmacked by life-changing crises, all of them trying to make sense of responsibility, mortality, and connection.Full Review

Lisa Schwarzbaum
Entertainment Weekly

The best Australian film to hit local screens in more than a year. Although lacking any internationally renowned actors to win more than limited release, the film's energy and stylistic daring mark it as a true original.Full Review

Erin Free
The Hollywood Reporter

Though Watt's emphasis on coincidence and fate seems strained at times, Look Both Ways is rich in dreamy summer atmosphere and deadpan wit.Full Review

Ann Hornaday
Washington Post

A fearless movie about a fearful subject, an unusually empathetic and quite funny film that deals with death and dying in the most offbeat and casually life-affirming way. Exceptionally smart, playful and perceptive, Look Both Ways confronts things that people would rather avoid.Full Review
