Mud Reviews
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
Sadly, Nichols, who made the superb Take Shelter, gets mired in mood this time around. But there's still an evocative sense of childhood exploration, and a gritty performance by Matthew McConaughey.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
An evocative highlight of the American movie year so far.
Austin Chronicle
Kimberley Jones
Mud, from the Austin-based writer/director Jeff Nichols, is many things at once, and all enriched by David Wingo's double-stop, aching, stringed score.
Alt Film Guide
Tim Cogshell
Mud is as beautiful to watch as it is to listen to, and feel kinship to, whether you're from the South or just Southern at heart.
ChrisStuckmann.com
Chris Stuckmann
The type of film that's miraculously heartwarming, while also mournful and filled with sorrow.
TIME Magazine
Mary Corliss
Glorious vision of youth and truth, love and loss, your name is Mud.
Film Comment Magazine
Violet Lucca
In its energy and nuance, Mud seems like the kind of film Hollywood would've made in the Seventies, and would've continued to do if not for the advent of market-conscious filmmaking.
The New Republic
David Thomson
For at least three-quarters of the way, this is a fine film, and one that kids and parents could see together.
HollywoodChicago.com
Brian Tallerico
A brilliant metaphor for how a child deals with divorce.
New Yorker
David Denby
Nichols has a strong feeling for the tactility of natural elements-water, wood, terrain, weather.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Nichols takes his time with the story, dwelling on how the boy is shaped by the killer's tragic sense of romance, yet the suspense holds.
leonardmaltin.com
Leonard Maltin
The kind of film where small gestures and vignettes convey more than long speeches possibly could.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
"Mud" unfolds at its own pace, revealing its story in slivers. The performances are outstanding, especially from Sheridan, who plays tough, sweet, vulnerable and confused with equal conviction.
Newsday
John Anderson
Nichols' wild narrative tributaries all eventually intersect, and at no time does he let one's attention stall.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
A wonderful, piquant modern-day variation on "Huckleberry Finn.''
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
The film is drenched in the humidity and salty air of a Delta summer, often recalling the musical, aphoristic cadences of Sam Shepard, who happens to appear in a supporting role.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
Mr. Nichols's voice is a distinctive and welcome presence in American film.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
It's a movie that holds out hope for the movies' future.
Los Angeles Times
Betsy Sharkey
One of the most creatively rich and emotionally rewarding movies to come along this year.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
What you do need to know is that the acting is top-tier all the way. McConaughey, on a career roll, is magnificent.
