Screen RantKate BoveJun 13, 2024
Punctuated by heart-aching moments, Stalter’s performance puts her comic star power on full display, reiterating the actor’s excellent comedic timing. Read full review

If you know Stalter from HBO's Hacks then you know the general territory. In this case, the whole movie is Stalter and while her bizarre charm is formidable, it’s not quite enough to carry everything — a stronger script might have helped. Read full review

Movie NationRoger MooreJun 27, 2024
Stalter & Co. make her a funny, infuriating and unpleasantly empathetic figure, “Portland” quirky no matter where you find her. Read full review

ColliderEmily BernardApr 30, 2024
Cora Bora is a bit of a surprise first leading role for Stalter as it's a comedy that’s soaked in heartache, trauma, and self-discovery. It’s a vehicle that proves she can not only make us laugh, but make us feel some feelings, too. Read full review

The Daily BeastColeman SpildeMay 3, 2024
It’s Stalter’s brazen conviction that really sells the film. Carried on the shoulders of Cora’s leopard print, faux fur coat, Cora Bora is a taught indie that straddles funny and forlorn with unexpected depth. Read full review

The Hollywood ReporterAngie HanApr 30, 2024
If the film’s strength lies in its affection for its title heroine, its greatest flaw is a comparative lack of attention toward the characters surrounding her — yielding a film that, for all its likable beats, feels flimsier than it should. Read full review

IndieWireJude DryApr 30, 2024
With a thinly sketched premise and a Hail Mary pass at emotional depth arriving late in the final act, the film feels like a series of vignettes draped around Stalter’s charms. Unfortunately, charisma alone doesn’t make an interesting narrative. Read full review

The A.V. ClubEmma KeatesJun 12, 2024
On its own, Cora Bora doesn’t offer anything new. But as an audition tape for Stalter’s future, it’s one of the more exciting things to come out of the comedy world this year. Read full review
