A successful experiment that’s highly attuned to the digital immediacy of our modern condition. Read full review

With a ruthlessly pared-down approach and compelling performer in Dynevor, who carries the film effortlessly, “Inheritance” is a throwback thriller that hearkens to the retro days of the Y2K era. And while its style eclipses its substance, it’s the style that makes this cinematic curio worth watching. Read full review

How the film conceives of Maya is somewhat limited by her being a naive pawn in a bigger picture, but Dynevor easily demonstrates the screen presence to sustain this whole enterprise. Read full review

While the unique shooting style and the talents of Dynevor and Ifans should have set the film up for success, the underdeveloped characters and underwhelming twists render Inheritance a tedious watch rather than a gripping espionage action flick. Read full review

You always get the sense that you are watching a screenplay’s first draft that never got the fleshing-out that it clearly needed to make it stand out, either from a dramatic or emotional standpoint. Read full review

The making-of story is well worth hunting down and can make this broadly underwhelming movie almost worth the watch. Read full review

It’s underbaked and baffling to watch, with little tension or interest to pull us through. Read full review
