Coolly controlled and extremely well-acted.

Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune

Spare yet deeply atmospheric, the film is charged with dreadful fatalism.

Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune

The film creates one of the most chillingly becalmed portraits of insanity I've seen.

Wesley Morris, Grantland

This lyrical, frightening film is a portrait of a man consumed by self-hatred who decided to take it out on the world.

Rene Rodriguez, Miami Herald
Rotten

If Moors and Porto were aiming for gun-debate relevance, they've failed; "Blue Caprice" has nothing to say about a society plagued by violence, nor does it focus on mental illness as a probable cause.

Jeff Shannon, Seattle Times
