David Sterritt

An ingeniously scripted psychological thriller. Read full review

Lisa Schwarzbaum

The depth of the story and the characters is awfully slight to bear the weight of such fancy editing. But the performances are crisp and in focus, with Cox in particular showing a photogenic feel for expressing grief. Read full review

Scott Tobias

Feels more like a clever student short that got out of hand than the Kafka-esque nightmare that director Greg Harrison (Groove) likely intended. Read full review

Curt Fields

The best thing about this psychological exploration is its star, Courteney Cox. Read full review

Sean Axmaker

For all its good intentions in exploring the grace of death, November never creates a life outside of its all-too-obvious inspirations and the mystery becomes little more than a groaner. Read full review

Dallas Observer Bill Gallo

Cox, bespectacled and deglamorized here, shows some acting ability, but by the time you get through this 78-minute bag of tricks, you could be suffering from a case of perceptual overload. Read full review

Michael Sragow

Brand's script is a puzzle without a satisfying solution. Even at its supposedly heartfelt conclusion, it's more ironic than emotional, more of an art thing than a suspense movie. Read full review

A brilliant film, powerful from the very first frame. This is the kind of movie that reminds me why I'm a film major.

I thought the acting was absolutely spectacular, but while people may say the ending was "deep" and "thought provoking", at no point in the movie did I even catch a glimpse of what could be considered a so-called "ending".... It was like they were about to film a scene which ties everything I thought the acting was absolutely spectacular, but while people may say the ending was "deep" and "thought provoking", at no point in the movie did I even catch a glimpse of what could be considered a so-called "ending".... It was like they were about to film a scene which ties everything together in a way which makes you understand the movie when they said "You know what would be cool?" "If we just didn't film an ending and put it out like this." Though interesting to say the least, I believe anyone who watches this movie will be disappointed as they see the credits roll by so abrubtly.… Expand
