October Gale Ratings & Reviews
The Film Stage
Jared Mobarak
When I wasn't laughing at the absurdity of where things go I was bored out of my mind waiting for long silent stares hiding nothing to finally turn into action.
Seattle Weekly
Brian Miller
October Gale is a pleasant place to visit, though a dull, predictable movie to watch.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
... eventually ditches its character-driven approach in favor of far-fetched plot twists and melodramatic contrivances.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
A rather silly, unbelievable thriller.
Advocate (Baton Rouge, LA)
John Wirt
Patricia Clarkson keeps 'October Gale' from completely sinking.
Los Angeles Times
Sheri Linden
A film that begins as a languorous study in grieving and shifts with screeching abruptness into a crime thriller.
We Got This Covered
Jordan Adler
Patricia Clarkson does all she can to anchor October Gale, but the story drifts between tones and ultimately sinks due to a lack of suspense and surprise.
RogerEbert.com
Susan Wloszczyna
The best parts of this tepid thriller, which seems designed to actually lower audience's heart rates, arrive before the plot kicks in.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
In "October Gale," a low-key character study gives way to increasingly clamorous melodrama ...
NPR
Ella Taylor
Feels cut from the cloth of a romance novel for middle-aged respectables, with a fatally under-motivated thriller clumsily tacked on to jazz up the action.
Blu-ray.com
Brian Orndorf
"October Gale" is compassionate, authentically emotional at times, and when it reaches its potential, retains some concept of restraint.
The Dissolve
Mike D'Angelo
October Gale plays like an adaptation of a quick outline for a romantic thriller, rushed into production before anyone got around to fleshing things out.
Film Journal International
Doris Toumarkine
All in all, October Gale is nice work, but that doesn't always cut it these days.
New York Daily News
Graham Fuller
This dramatic thriller is a ball of confusion, but with barely any bounce. The one reason to see it: Patricia Clarkson's subtle star turn.
Observer
Rex Reed
Even in a formulaic thriller like the Canadian film October Gale, Patricia Clarkson is always a welcome sight to fatten up slim material and add ballast to plot dynamics.
The Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
A film that starts off as a quiet exploration of grief but soon becomes a trapped-in-your-home thriller.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
This underdeveloped tale set on an island in Northern Ontario's Georgian Bay fails to build the intrigue or tension required for a thriller, and falls short as a character-driven drama as well.
Village Voice
Serena Donadoni
There's an Old Hollywood romanticism to Mischa Chillak's music, underscoring the noirish elements in Nadda's subdued and intimate thriller, where regret is as deadly as a firearm.
Slant Magazine
Nick Prigge
The film begins as a moodily introspective drama about grief before implausibly morphing into a stale thriller.
