The Wanting Mare Ratings & Reviews
RogerEbert.com
Isaac Feldberg
Exquisitely elusive, a love dream that slips through your fingers as you reach for it, made with ingenuity and stunning clarity of vision.
ComingSoon.net
Jeff Ames
I heartedly recommend The Wanting Mare to film enthusiasts looking for a decidedly unique film experience.
Tilt Magazine
Christopher Cross
With a DIY-attitude in tow with its small cast and crew, Bateman paints an intimate portrait of life tethered to a single location and the constant desire to walk away from it all
Nerdist
Lindsey Romain
A dreamy, dazzling fantasy debut.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
Though audiences watching the film's première on small screens may miss out on the full effect, there's a lot to appreciate here - and a promise to explore Anmaere further if it's well enough received.
Film Inquiry
Alexander Miller
For its high-concept presentation and heady ruminations, The Wanting Mare is not a very demanding picture but more of an invitation to a unique passion.
In Review Online
Daniel Gorman
It's a bold debut for Bateman, who proves to be not only a gifted technician within this DIY sensibility ... but also the possessor of a rare sensitivity.
Rob's Movie Vault
Rob Gonsalves
A little humor might have helped; a darting spot of personality. But it's an art object, and the people in it are not characters so much as concepts.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
Bateman's worldbuilding introduces stranger elements that are always counterbalanced by more grounded emotional developments, keeping the audience engaged as hard as the esoteric mythology pushes them away.
IndieWire
Eric Kohn
This kind of hushed, low-key story certainly wouldn't be the most obvious place to start an epic, but it's a captivating chunk of mood and personality begging for future chapters. Here's hoping Bateman finds a way to tell them.
Birth.Movies.Death.
Scott Wampler
The most impressive bit of filmmaking I've seen in 2020. It's probably a bit too slow, a bit too withholding to be a crowd-pleaser, but there's also zero indication here that Bateman has any interest in making crowd-pleasers.
io9.com
Germain Lussier
Ashe Bateman clearly has a vision, but the execution doesn't convey what that is or leave a lasting impression needed to jump-start this world. The performances from top to bottom are cold and calculated as if we purposefully aren't supposed to be let in.
Cultured Vultures
Alex McPherson
The Wanting Mare is an ambitious film that's worth watching for its creativity alone.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
Filled with angst-ridden brooding and introspective malaise, the downbeat and deliberately paced film maintains a frustrating emotional distance.
Variety
Mark Keizer
In this garish and corporatized age of IP, it seems the auteur is alive and, even if he's occasionally dragged down by the weight of his own ambitions, doing pretty well.
Film Threat
Alex Saveliev
As a testament to the limitlessness of low-budget filmmaking, Bateman's film functions perfectly; as a self-standing piece, less so.
Los Angeles Times
Noel Murray
There's something haunting and poetic too about the simplicity of this story, which is primarily about how people find reasons to persevere once they find a companion.
Boston Hassle
Oscar Goff
While I wish the story grabbed me more than it did, it's still a work of chutzpah that demands to be seen.
RogerEbert.com
Roxana Hadadi
The Wanting Mare is so enamored with its own mythos that it prioritizes ambitious iconography over immersive narrative.
Slant Magazine
Henry Stewart
It's as if Nicholas Ashe Bateman is commenting on a distinctly American suburban malaise, using a fictional place, digitally made, to get at a real, painful truth about being stuck in a place you didn't choose, amid circumstances you didn't create.
