Mountains Ratings & Reviews
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
Sorelle's gentle beauty of a film is no downer, reflecting a resilient culture that refuses to be bulldozed over to make way for luxury homes.
AWFJ.org
Sherin Nicole
That is also where the film takes a stand; rebelling against that gentrification-that Americanization-of their spirits and urging them to hold tight to who they are. Which, ironically, has always been the American way.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Angelica Jade Bastién
It's the kind that dares us to look back and consider what it means to create a home away from the shores where you were born, in a country hostile not just to your betterment but to your very survival.

Low-key, naturalistic yet potent looks at difficult working-class family dynamics...
MiamiArtZine
Rubén Rosario
Mountains yearns for the enchantment (and topography) of a Caribbean motherland that's just out of reach, and it mourns a present that is shifting much too quickly for so many of us to find our bearings.
Boston Globe
Odie Henderson
"Mountains" immerses us in its universe because the filmmakers want to make clear what will be lost by the current and impending gentrification of the area.
We Live Entertainment
Aaron Neuwirth
The way Mountains speaks to a particular culture yet plays as a relatable family drama is the kind of thing I find immensely rewarding.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
"Mountains" does what it sets out to do with grace, and a sure instinct for music, color, faces and moments of decision regarding where we've come.

Carlos Aguilar
The strength of Sorelle's storytelling hinges on how she divulges these points not in verbose dialogue or forced confrontations, but through the ambivalent emotions that coat all human drama.
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
…issues of gentrification, the disconnect between immigrants and their American born children, the American Dream, racism and the importance of culture within ethnic communities all embedded within an intimate family drama.
IndieWire
Christian Blauvelt
It'll be a challenge to find another film character this year with a richer, more realized internal life.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
[Mountains] is too low-key to leave much of an impression. But as a portrait of intergenerational tensions in an immigrant family, it is poignant, and it captures an area of Miami that is rarely seen onscreen.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
Sorelle is patient and observant, having a palpable affection for these characters and trusting us enough to see what she sees in them. We do.
Culturess
Lisa Laman
Mountains is dedicated to chronicling existences upended by a process benefiting the bourgeoise.
Loud and Clear Reviews
Scott Wilson
A generational story of change and of trying to make peace with differences across time and place. [...] Mountains is an ode to what it means to feel at home and just how precarious that feeling is.
In Review Online
Chris Cassingham
Sorelle's perspective favors ambiguities and complexities that mirror an immigrant experience balanced precariously on the border of ambition and resignation, of fighting for more, or being happy with, even proud of, what you already have.
AWFJ.org
Jennifer Merin
Director/co-writer Monica Sorelle's moody, beautifully realized drama, is about daily life and strife, community culture and intergenerational relationships and pursuit of the American dream in Miami's Little Haiti.
Variety
J. Kim Murphy
As a leading man, Nazaire is such a compelling, unguarded screen presence that it takes a while before the realization hits that the film's politely studied relationships aren't going anywhere at all.
Slant Magazine
William Repass
Mountains interprets leisure not so much as the opposite of work or struggle, but a stance that can and should suffuse each moment of life, not discounting those we sell to make a living.
The Hollywood Reporter
Lovia Gyarkye
Quietly beautiful.
