Friends and Strangers Ratings & Reviews
Vox
Alissa Wilkinson
Feels a little bit like a throwback to the indie mumblecore movement of the aughts, but with a distinctive and slightly absurdist Australian twist.
Screen Zealots
Louisa Moore
Mumblecore style films can be challenging if the story and characters arent strong enough, and this loosely-structured, talky Australian indie walks the line at a dangerously close pace. The disposable dialogue is toughest thing to sit through.
Film Threat
Jason Delgado
I'm all for going out on an artistic limb by ditching the tried and true three-act story structure, but you had better at least make it funny or interesting if you do.
48 Hills
Dennis Harvey
With its static compositions and interesting musical choices, Strangers has the right arch, aimless, ironical tone to render its shaggy dog story tart and interesting rather than just indulgent.
RogerEbert.com
Tomris Laffly
Friends and Strangers often feels like the impression of something rather than the fully fleshed-out thing itself.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
True to its title, "Friends and Strangers" is a movie of opposites.
The Weekend Warrior (Substack)
Edward Douglas
If youre my age, you might feel a lot like the homeowner who is just completely puzzled by Ferguss behavior and the silly things that come out of his mouth.
Slant Magazine
Carson Lund
The film's tonal and situational shapeshifting doesn't go to the surrealist lengths of Luis Buñuel's The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie, but James Vaughan similarly indulges in burlesquing upper-middle-class complacency.
The Film Stage
Leonardo Goi
Nothing happens in James Vaughn's Friends and Strangers in the same way that nothing happens in the films of Hong Sangsoo.
eFilmCritic.com
Peter Sobczynski
[Tries to] evoke the highly verbose spirits of such directors as Eric Rohmer and Whit Stillman. Alas, what might have been witty and insightful in their hands proves to be little more than enervating here.
