If you haven't seen a wasting disease in real life, you might think "Restless" is romantic. If you have, you might diagnose it as terminally cute.

Joe Williams, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Rotten

All surface, no thought and quite horribly empty.

Dave Calhoun, Time Out

Restless is consciously lovely in the face of death. How rare.

Tom Long, Detroit News

This low-budget movie takes its time filling in the backgrounds of its characters. That works for a while, but when it's over you may wonder if that's all there is.

John Hartl, Seattle Times

Gus Van Sant doesn't make bad movies.
