Trespass Against Us | Ratings & Reviews

"Adam Smith’s first feature, (following his work as a director on Chemical Brothers videos and TV’s Dr Who), is no whizz-bang Brit gangster flick. Rather, the rewards are in the carefully-constructed cinematography and top-notch performances, not just from the two leads, but also child actors and a supporting cast who blend seamlessly into the unforgiving environment on display."

"As a thief trying to break away from his criminal father, Michael Fassbender can't act his way out of this pile of grungy nonsense."

VarietyVariety

"Though thematically vague, thinly plotted and without a reliably sympathetic soul to cling to, the movie has a mutinous energy and an absurd, knockabout charm; even its violence is more quirky than brutal."

The New York TimesThe New York Times

"Moments of excitement don't make up for what is ultimately a slow burn study of characters that aren't nearly as interesting as the movie thinks they are."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"Some smart, deft writing, and a series of car and foot chase set pieces that constantly out do themselves for inventiveness and flat-out entertainment value."

StuffStuff

"Dynamic storytelling and powerful performances bring out the pathos in an unusual tale of conflicting loyalties set on the criminal edges of a travelling community."

Screen DailyScreen Daily

"Elements of this crime drama/family saga are good - in particular, performances from two of Ireland's finest actors, Michael Fassbender and Brendan Gleeson - but as a whole it fails to make a lasting impact."

New Zealand HeraldNew Zealand Herald

""Trespass Against Us" plays like the quirky indie-fication of the family gangster movie, its scrappiness overlaid with a patina of we're-all-in-this-together slickness."

Los Angeles TimesLos Angeles Times

"The movie doesn't play on the tension between these two moods so much as tread water between them, unsure what it wants to do to the audience."

Hollywood ReporterHollywood Reporter

"Adam Smith wastes his talented leads on a standard family crime drama we've seen plenty of times before."
