Over the GW Reviews
TV Guide
Maitland McDonagh
Overall, the performances are surprisingly convincing, but the mockumentary elements feel out of place and the intrusive switching between B&W and color denotes nothing; it's just a gratuitous flourish that detracts from the raw story material.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Over the G W follows a troubled brother and sister as they are committed to a New Jersey treatment center by their well-meaning parents.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
Both newcomers, the two leads impress, as does veteran actor Albert Insinnia as the center's psycho director.
Slant Magazine
Rob Humanick
Over the GW is appropriately troubling in its evocation of humanity's penchant for self-destruction.
Village Voice
Aaron Hillis
An undeniably personal if amateurish psychodrama... Gaglia's torture re-creations become rote quickly, and his cross-processed, color-tinted, randomly inserted, over-zoomed Film School 101 indulgences need their meds adjusted.
Variety
Joe Leydon
Writer-director Nick Gaglia has fashioned a documentary-style drama that is too narratively disjointed to achieve maximum impact, but too emotionally potent in fits and starts to be dismissed out of hand.
Los Angeles Times
At a mere 76 minutes, the movie skips past what seems like lots of crucial exposition in favor of vague flashbacks and confusing inserts.
