Memory Box Ratings & Reviews
IndieWire
Jude Dry
Artists do not need science to tell them what they feel in their bones, and film is a powerful tool to illustrate the ephemeral memories one stores in the body.

Jared Mobarak
Credit the filmmakers for going to those darker places with the impossibility of living through so much death and destruction. And for deciding that letting that pain out and realizing they don't have to battle it alone can lead to happy endings too.
Hammer to Nail
Christopher Llewellyn Reed
The result is a moving cinematic treatise on identity and its reconstruction, buoyed by fine performances all around, proving that out of pain can come a salve to heal it.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
A genuinely poignant, profound and captivating emotional journey with terrific performances.
New York Times
Devika Girish
Memories, whether human or technological, have their limits. But in sharing them, as "Memory Box" movingly demonstrates, we can discover them anew.
Backseat Mafia
Rob Aldam
It's beautifully acted and vibrantly shot, but it's the way Memory Box is meticulously and lovingly pieced together which makes it so special.
Film Inquiry
Faisal Al-Jadir
Memory Box is not only an endearing experience about friendship and forgiveness but serves as a poignant metaphor for a people that never loses hope.
In Review Online
Morris Yang
[The film's]magical-sounding title conceals the roteness of its false catharsis; the stills bond and break, but only superficially, as they have already been processed for the viewer.
The Film Stage
Orla Smith
Memory Box is at its strongest in its first half.
Critic's Notebook
Sarah Manvel
There's an amazing shot of Raja and Maia on his motorbike, racing down a city promenade as bullets whiz through the air around them.
Film Inquiry
Reyzando Nawara
It's introspective, affecting, and an visually inventive depiction of how memory, good or bad, plays a huge part in shaping us in the present. Hadjithomas and Joreige have done it again.
AWFJ.org
Alexandra Heller-Nicholas
Memory Box brings buried memories back to life in its tale of New Wave teen dreams (and nightmares) in wartime Beirut in a fresh, poignant and deeply personal way.
IONCINEMA.com
Nicholas Bell
A monotony sets in with Memory Box and ultimately feels like an intimate portrait more meaningful for its makers than the audience.
Variety
Jay Weissberg
Becomes an intoxicating cocktail of recollections while also addressing how different generations process the touchstone triggers of memory.
The Hollywood Reporter
Deborah Young
A warm, dense tale about women.
