Life, like love is messy. The beauty of the film is the way Miele, through the dilemma of Adrienne and Matteo, asks us to look at our own messy lives and see it through fresh eyes. Read full review

Wander Darkly is not some misty-eyed golden-hued stroll down memory lane. The title of the film is eloquent. Darkness threatens every moment. Read full review

Chemistry wise, Miller and Luna work wonders together. Miller’s intense dynamic range: from impassioned to ebullient and afraid, plays well off of Luna’s boyish charm. They imbue these characters with troves of insecurities and mountains of love. Read full review

What really keeps Wander Darkly together is yet another convoluted, conflicted, and honest performance from Miller. Read full review

Movie Nation Roger Moore

There are tips and too-obvious clues about what’s really going on here. And Miele drags out the finale, too, trying to bring on the tears. But Miller and Luna give this romance a history, weariness and testy spark that keeps Wander Darkly going even after we’ve guessed what its destination is. Read full review

Miller is at the heart of the film; her natural and believable performance touches so many emotions, and makes them all look so real. Read full review

What could have been a profound study of grief and psychological trauma is diluted with needless structural and stylistic obfuscation. Read full review

You do wander in the dark for a long time because it's confusing until you realize what the twist it's all about, even before this gets revealed by the narrative.

The notion is intriguing, but the handling is completely ordinary, and somewhat lacking in a more reliable execution. The ideaYou do wander in the dark for a long time because it's confusing until you realize what the twist it's all about, even before this gets revealed by the narrative.

The notion is intriguing, but the handling is completely ordinary, and somewhat lacking in a more reliable execution.

The idea is that you immerse yourself in the mystery that the story explores by not knowing what is the reality that the lead character is experiencing, but to tell the truth the script doesn't offer much solidity in that regard.

Not bad. Not good.… Expand
