I Will Follow, Ava DuVernay's triumphant feature debut, is a life-affirming portrait of a woman, Maye (Salli Richardson-Whitfield), juggling all kinds of loss.
Carrie Rickey, Philadelphia Inquirer
Fresh
This touching if insular drama about a woman grieving over the recent death of her aunt is well acted and incisively observed, although it's ultimately too low-key to have much dramatic impact.
Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter
Rotten
Shows a certain amount of promise but often falls prey to easy emotional beats and an overall sentimentality when it should push for moments less obvious, more rare, true and insightful.
Mark Olsen, Los Angeles Times

As a director, DuVernay handles her actors with care, though visually the picture sometimes betrays its shoestring budget.
John Hartl, Seattle Times
