CRITICS OF "Take Shelter"

Tribune News Service

Director Nichols walks a tightrope between giving us a dark, Gothic tale of misunderstood prophecy and a sobering lesson on the state of mental health care in rural America.

Variety

A hallucinatory thriller anchored by a deeply resonant sense of unease.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews

An intelligent bone chilling art-house film about dealing with our anxiety in the modern world.

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

In an era of empty entertainments, "Take Shelter" is built to last.

We Got This Covered

Tight editing and pace make for a careful and thoughtful film that is a very strong piece of cinema.

Philadelphia Weekly

There's no suspense and little surprise. Just a long. slow grind to ruin.

Gordon and the Whale

I could watch Michael Shannon stare at a wall for 90 minutes and still be captivated.

NECN

While Take Shelter isn't by any means perfect - writer/director Jeff Nichols could use a refresher course on editing - it's a powerful film, displaying a devolvement into insanity that ultimately proves to be quite visionary.

Detroit News

There's a strong, unsettling sense of disease that runs through Take Shelter, the best drama of the year so far.

October 28, 2011

Resource

The New Republic

In my estimate, this unique and frequently arresting film suffers from the monotony of the lead players' affect, and from the film's urge to have its gloomy cake and eat it.

Time Out

When future film historians look back at the cultural fallout from America's financial collapse, 'Take Shelter' will be a key text. That is, if the storm doesn't sweep us all away.

Orlando Sentinel

Shannon wonderfully modulates Nichols' portrait of a man whose mind and life seem to unravel before our eyes.
