Felix and Meira Ratings & Reviews
Detroit News
Tom Long
Delicate, warm and worried, "Felix and Meira" is a coming-of-age film about two grown people stunted by social circumstance.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
This is the sort of movie whose warmth toward its characters is contagious.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
When is an image held for too long? At what point does a shot's duration outlast its emotional information? As ardent and earnest as it is, "Felix and Meira" is a test case.
Austin Chronicle
Steve Davis
The movie approaches this mutual attraction tentatively, much as the two characters do. And that's the problem with this well-meaning but ultimately hollow film romance: You don't see it; you don't get it.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
There's a subtext to this love story that seems to say we're all islands, in one way or another.
San Diego Reader
Matthew Lickona
Director Maxime Giroux gets good performances from leads Martin Dubreuil and Hadas Yaron...But the romantic mood is asked to cover for too much left unsaid, unasked, and undone.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Joe Williams
"Felix and Meira" raises the question: Are we happiest with a twin spirit - or with a reverse image that completes the picture?
Seattle Times
Tom Keogh
A viewer can be forgiven for violent eye-rolling.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
The result is not the most explosive -- nor organic -- romance. Still, it swirls and settles in interesting ways.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
[A] quiet, aching film ...
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
Giroux's refusal to pass judgment on his characters prevents us from doing so, and the film is much more powerful for it.
San Francisco Chronicle
Leba Hertz
"Flix and Meira" appears to be a simple movie about fitting in, acceptance and sacrifice. Yet it's so elegant and poses many different sides that it's actually a very complex film with very complex characters.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
It's always gratifying to see a movie in which an ostensibly closed-off community is depicted humanely rather than voyeuristically.
Los Angeles Times
Katie Walsh
Luzer Twersky as Shulem, Meira's controlling husband, is a fine example of the film's willingness to extend empathy to all of its characters, and its refusal to pigeonhole them into a black and white moral landscape.
Entertainment Weekly
Joe McGovern
Giroux mistakes long, wordless scenes of characters gazing at each other for tenderness, but he imaginatively uses gospel music as the forbidden food of love ...
The Playlist
Kimber Myers
It may lack the heat of supposedly similar films about unlikely love, but that doesn't mean that it's short on romance. Felix and Meira's interactions are imbued with longing and desire that is impossible not be swept up in.
RogerEbert.com
Peter Sobczynski
It tells a not-especially-interesting story about a not-especially-interesting couple from two different worlds that goes on and on before reaching its not-especially-interesting conclusion.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
This tenderly observed love story (by the director, Maxime Giroux) isn't about religion - or its lack - but about the attraction of difference and the undeniable need to feel alive.
NPR
Ella Taylor
What's missing here is the vitality and sense of release the couple's romance should bring. Felix and Meira continue to pine and mope; the movie mopes with them in exhausting, often awkwardly intrusive detail.
AV Club
Mike D'Angelo
Flix & Meira eventually proves to have more in common with Fill The Void, and with Burshtein's effort to depict Orthodox Judaism as more than just a women's prison, than it had appeared.
