Birth Ratings & Reviews
- StairwaytothestarsDecember 6, 2025Hauntingly and mysteriously effective and gives Birth to a darkly stylistic shaded ambience that resonated within the premise of loss, morning, and hope. Superbly acted with a wonderful cast that elevated this story.
- godzill416April 26, 2025Kidman was great alongside Sean's actor, and the concept truly was unique and cool, giving way to a certain anti-empathetic tone. Like you can't attempt to relate to Anna because this situation is so fucking weird. Cool effect. However, there is some problem. Pacing? Plot? Storytelling? Kind of frustrating that I can't pinpoint the issue in the movie. Not too shabby, overall.
