Concussion Reviews
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
It's on the dull side, despite a fair amount of tasteful, non-explicit sex.
Orange County Register
Michael Sragow
[Weigert] and Passon team up to create an indelible portrait of a woman who may always be a work in progress.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
This might sound, at the very least, titillating, but "Concussion" is anything but.
RogerEbert.com
Sheila O'Malley
Takes this well-worn storyline and makes something unique out of it, something fresh and bizarre.
Entertainment Weekly
Leah Greenblatt
The ending's a vague cop-out, but the movie is much smarter and more nuanced than the late-night-Cinemax setup suggests.
Film.com
Daniel Walber
Passon's portrayal of sexuality is not so much fluid as it is open, a frankly refreshing way of seeing.
Autostraddle
scribegrrrl
In less careful hands than director Stacie Passon's, the lineup of clients could have turned into a parade of clichés. But the camera, like Abby, meets each woman on her own terms.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Unfortunately, Passon can't seem to figure out her own protagonist; there are plenty of sexual climaxes here but not much of a narrative one.
Salon.com
Andrew O'Hehir
If you're looking for a marriage movie that's friendly, upbeat and reassuring, I suggest you keep on looking; if you want a startling debut film that merits comparison with Ingmar Bergman, Woody Allen and Nicole Holofcener, here it is.
Variety
Rob Nelson
Shot as if they were ads for high-thread-count bed sheets, the pic's talky afternoon delights remain more flowery than erotic.
Los Angeles Times
Sheri Linden
It is Weigert's performance that gives the film its mystery and charge. Playing seriously with identity, she draws the viewer ever closer. The way she never reveals everything is electrifying.
AV Club
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
The viewer is presented with a series of caustic, vignette-like scenes which tease bigger themes but end before they can tackle them ...
Slant Magazine
R. Kurt Osenlund
The near-imperceptible finesse of Abby's characterization reflects writer-director Stacie Passon's effortless, interesting mix of richness and economy.
TheWrap
Alonso Duralde
It's hard not to think about Last Tango in Paris, The Stepford Wives, Belle de Jour and Jeanne Dielmann as we experience Abby's spiritual and sensual reawakening.
Village Voice
Melissa Anderson
Quickly devolves into a series of unconvincing scenes in service to an outlandish premise.
Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
Solid relationship drama centers on an unsympathetic lead.
Film Quarterly
B. Ruby Rich
A crazy set-up, but this is one part screwball comedy, one part sex romp, so it works.
Way Too Indie
Bernard Boo
Writer-director Stacie Passon's debut feature is an accomplished first statement, with polished visuals, strong performances, and an ending that leaves you with a lot to chew on after leaving the theater.
New York Times
Nicolas Rapold
Ms. Passon ultimately seems to skirt some of the larger life questions hinted at along the way.
Bitch Flicks
Ren Jender
In Concussion are we seeing the female gaze? Well, we're definitely seeing one woman's gaze, that of [Stacie] Passon.
