Giants Being Lonely Reviews
The Film Stage
Rory O'Connor
Giants introduces a strong new voice in American independent filmmaking.
Crooked Marquee
Josh Bell
Patterson evokes a hazy mood of adolescent indolence, and then turns it into something lurid and false.
RogerEbert.com
Nell Minow
Giants Being Lonely ... shows impressive filmmaking skills from co-writer/director Grear Patterson.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
Patterson's elliptical, ethereal approach might appear aimless and wispy at the beginning but "Giants" coalesces as it goes on, casting a bewitching, unnerving spell.
IONCINEMA.com
Nicholas Bell
Its subject, two young men on the verge of high school graduation who are members of the same baseball team, waxes authentic in the inarticulateness of its characterizations, buoyed by a breathless blend of visuals for a transportive concoction.
Movie Nation
Roger Moore
Although it borrows, in the most overt ways, plot points from "The Last Picture Show" and "Hoosiers," it paints an engrossing portrait of kids being kids - aimless, reckless and focused on "the now" even with the weight of the world on them.
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
Pictorially striking but somewhat anemic from a dramatic standpoint, with an ending that's especially off-key.
ButteredPopcorn
Carson Timar
It is clear that there is legitimate talent on display here but it gets lost and buried beneath the film's lackluster focus and execution.
Variety
Owen Gleiberman
The film asks us to indulge and share the privacy of its characters. That's its moody, free-floating allure.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
Nothing concrete emerges from this haze of oblique editing and barely written scenes, acted by cast members who are not up to making the dialogue sound convincing or filling the voids left in place of their characters.
TheWrap
William Bibbiani
Although the film isn't in a particular rush to get anywhere, and only a few sequences involving prom and drugs and abuse are even vaguely reminiscent of conventional plotting, it's never less than engrossing.
Hollywood Reporter
Jon Frosch
Stilted writing and acting... contribute to an air of studied inscrutability that grows tiresome even over the course of a compact 80 minutes.
In Review Online
Molly Adams
The unfortunate problem, then, is that Giants Being Lonely does a brilliant job of conjuring an atmosphere and not much else.
The Spool
Sarah Gorr
Style and aesthetics alone do not make a movie.
AIPT
Nathaniel Muir
A beautiful looking film that focuses entirely on aesthetics and style. Familiar plot and underdeveloped characters are compounded by a nonsensical ending.
48 Hills
Dennis Harvey
...juggling elements of voyeurism, documentary realism, lyricism, and under-articulated masculinity critique, the movie has its points but too often feels lazy and affected.
The Weekend Warrior
Edward Douglas
Reminded me of early Richard Linklater, because it's so raw and honest in dealing with young people in a small town.
The Playlist
Christian Gallichio
Director Grear Patterson and cinematographer Hunter Zimny are talents to watch, as they have made a stylistic-if somewhat derivative-first feature.
