Magic Hour Ratings & Reviews
Crooked Marquee
Kimber Myers
This is not the first time a story like this has been told, but it is being told in Magic Hour with real affection and earnestness.
Hammer to Nail
Christopher Llewellyn Reed
The internal turmoil and external beauty combine to make for a solidly engaging watch.
Film Obsessive
Don Shanahan
This is tedious territory, culturally and spiritually. A large swath of viewers will think this film is trite, weak, meandering, or even nutty. The rest may find something special in this worthwhile walkabout of reflection.
RogerEbert.com
Matt Zoller Seitz
This is a movie that's short but still feels padded.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
This two-hander features strong performances committed to material that is refreshingly candid, yet feels more slight than profound.
New York Times
Natalia Winkelman
A crafty reveal does not a clever film make, and even at a merciful 80 minutes, the device eventually feels more tired than the sullen Erin, who soldiers on through her suffering.
Movies Thru the Spectrum
Al Alexander
The goal of exploring the challenge of overcoming loss and finding the courage to move on is a worthy subject for any movie, but not one this empty and cliched.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
Here's a story in which the characters have an opportunity to take on loss and grief in a ... direct manner ... but they waste the chance instead.
Next Best Picture
Ema Sasic
In the end, "Magic Hour" is quite a mixed experience. There are plenty of real, raw emotions on the screen and the page, but the screenplay feels too repetitive and surface-level for most of the runtime.
We Live Entertainment
Aaron Neuwirth
While familiar and not quite pronounced enough in its screenplay to make it stronger, Magic Hour does manage to resist some tropes by way of an early twist.
Screen Rant
Alex Harrison
The story is wrapped in a self-consciously "artistic" style that is only rarely additive. More often, it just gets in the way.
The Film Stage
Jared Mobarak
That's the main reason Magic Hour works so well: it's an indie two-hander that deals with themes we've seen many times before, but never pretends it needs more explosive drama than its conceit possesses.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Heartfelt, but undercooked, tedious and often maudlin.
Film Joy
Amanda Mazzillo
Magic Hour is a genuine tale of love, spending just as much time in the good moments as the bad, mirroring the unique, unexpectedness of life.
Loud and Clear Reviews
Alise Chaffins
In her film Magic Hour, Katie Aselton explores the sudden loss of a partner with compassion and empathy, offering a different perspective on a well-worn theme.
InSession Film
Dave Giannini
Magic Hour is a film that, when homing in on the dual processes of love and loss, has the full attention of its audience.
Variety
Stephen Saito
For a film about letting go, much of "Magic Hour" is bound to stick.
The Hollywood Reporter
Caryn James
Sometimes eloquent and often rocky, Magic Hour is good enough to make you wish it was much less predictable.
IndieWire
Kate Erbland
Oh, it's that kind of film, viewers might think. Well, let's see where it goes. Where it goes? Somewhat bumpy, but refreshingly honest and very much a return to the kind of filmmaking that kickstarted Aselton's own directing career.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
Ran out of ideas for me before it ran out of runtime.
