Home Ratings & Reviews
Village Voice
Andrew Schenker
Working with all-star DP Agnès Godard, Meier effectively communicates the sense of upended privacy.
Variety
Rob Nelson
Director Ursula Meier generally distinguishes her feature debut by not pushing elements to melodramatic or farcical extremes.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
A very clever and creative film that probes on family solidarity, change, the toxic residues of a car culture, and the physical, psychological and spiritual effects of noise pollution.
Slant Magazine
Fernando F. Croce
Home is finally hopeful in its view of familial bonds holding together as the characters are forced to face the far from idealized world they are inescapably a part of.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
Gradually the movie turns into an ironic assault on the inconvenient nature of civilization's conveniences.
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
Moving from the richly filled, quiet life of Marthe and her clan to the hell that the road brings, the story... has a unique arc and is a true family tragedy.
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
This suburban horror tale of a family's disintegration once modern life begins encroaching is reminiscent of such films as "The Cement Garden"...
Monsters and Critics
Ron Wilkinson
A surrealistic look at a family thrown onto the chopping block of modern technology.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
Though the cautionary symbolism is clear here, the committee-written film (there were five scribes including Meier), smartly keeps its message quotient in check.
Groucho Reviews
Peter Canavese
Darkly funny, haunting, and perhaps hopeful...there's a keen sense of absurdism (and in Agns Godard's brilliant photography a sort of surrealist realism, if there is such a thing) in the circumstances. [Blu-ray]
Film-Forward.com
Nora Lee Mandel
Eases down the road from an intimate family portrait to a disturbing environmental-disaster fable with a harrowing credibility that has more depth than most apocalypses.
Film Journal International
Erica Abeel
This original but overlong fable about a family menaced by industrial progress captures fears about a planet out of control.
Boston Globe
Janice Page
Home is the engaging, darkly funny, surreal story of what happens when people who have thrived by keeping civilization at a safe distance suddenly find themselves pushed right back into its headlights.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
What happens would not make sense in many households, but in this one, it represents a certain continuity, and confirms deep currents we sensed almost from the first.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
It's a unique work of disturbing character poetry, though it may be a little too disturbing.
