Ken Jaworowski of "The New York Times" gave the film a positive review and wrote, "Here, deeply damaged people are prone to exasperating decisions. Yet these characters are so strikingly realized that you can’t help but care for them."
Katie Walsh of the "Los Angeles Times" also gave the film a positive review and wrote, "There’s a sense of beauty and contemplation in Albertin’s work, and though it seems like danger hangs in the air, there’s an odd lack of tension or suspense, and the film’s pace requires incredible patience."
"The Hollywood Reporter" also gave the film a positive review: "Though hardly a failure, the serious-minded work is less affecting than it might’ve been, relying sometimes on hints that are needlessly ambiguous and on symbols that don’t quite click."
Dennis Harvey of "Variety" gave the film a negative review and wrote, "...despite the emotional terra firma Nivola and other cast members try to provide, this drama about a taciturn loner forced into single-parenthood drifts into the ozone."
