Chestnut Ratings & Reviews
Loud and Clear Reviews
Branyan Towe
Chestnut is likely destined to be an indie darling behind Natalia Dyer's performance in the lead role. The film is phenomenally written, intimate, and maintains its authenticity throughout
Vague Visages
Q.V. Hough
"Director Jac Cron shows major filmmaking potential with her feature debut, though the underdeveloped screenplay will presumably irritate the casual moviegoer."
The Film Stage
Oliver Weir
Many of the problems are no doubt due to the script, which is tedious and rambling, but the performances do not help.
48 Hills
Dennis Harvey
Like the summertime flirtations depicted, Cron's film as a whole does feel like an authentic representation of youthful impulses suspended between infatuation, uncertainty, and evolving self-knowledge.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Cron's feature debut is indicative of a filmmaker with exciting potential and there are moments when Chestnut achieves some perfect indie vibes...but we're left with the distinct feeling that these people aren't as interesting or as complicated...
Director's Club
Jim Laczkowski
Dyer is great but the overall effect is that of a morning hangover haze without the nighttime fun that precedes it. Which is strange given that there are many bar scenes and interactions. I was left wanting so much more by the end.
Collider
Taylor Gates
Cron's leaning into the queerness of the dynamic as well as the messiness of being Annie's age are both smart decisions, keeping the audience invested even when the plot gets cliché or repetitive.
Film Obsessive
Tina Kakadelis
Chestnut would feel perfectly at home as a double feature with Lady Bird. Both capture the invincible, self-destructive nature of coming of age and the bittersweet melancholy of realizing that the world is not what you imagined it would be.
RogerEbert.com
Sarah-Tai Black
Compact in its runtime, "Chestnut" offers a softly lyrical glimpse of young life on the precipice of a new and uncertain future.
Autostraddle
Drew Gregory
We've seen the storyline of "straight girl/maybe closeted girl emotionally terrorizes a queer woman" on-screen many times. But I appreciate how that was complicated here.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
... deserves credit for its progressive outlook on acceptance and sexual fluidity, although Annie's ambivalence come off as shallow and desperate without providing sufficient incentive for emotional investment.
We Live Entertainment
Aaron Neuwirth
Despite good effort from the cast, it was tough to get on board with a movie that felt noncommittal about its choices.
IndieWire
David Opie
Natalia Dyer impresses, but Chestnut lacks personality and a distinct voice, which is unfortunate and frustrating because there's so much potential here to be something more.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Bland, shallow and uninspired.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
If there is a deeper level to the protagonist of Chestnut, it's not on screen in the plotting, the filmmaking, or the lead performance.
In Review Online
Fred Barrett
Unfortunately, one wishes the film wasn't so well-behaved and would allow for these relationships to develop into something more profound, something more deeply felt - something passionate, something truly messy.
Marmalade Matinee (Medium)
Sara Clements
Chestnut is frustrating in how superbly it captures such a frustrating time in one's life. The audience is taken on a whirlwind ride with a complicated love triangle on a rocky road to starting anew.
