Run & Jump Reviews
RogerEbert.com
Christy Lemire
"Run & Jump" is surprisingly alive, full of jolts and unexpected bursts of humor and earned emotion.
Seattle Times
Tom Keogh
Insightful and often touching ...
Observer
Rex Reed
It's sensitive and winsome, like a modestly budgeted independent film should be.
Detroit News
Tom Long
"Run & Jump" pretty much paints itself into a corner, but it has a nice time getting there.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
Peake provides the solid center for a movie that would otherwise melt into indie formula.
AV Club
Kyle Ryan
Forte's strength in playing awkward characters works to his advantage.
New York Post
Sara Stewart
Peake does a wonderful job conveying her character's essential young-at-heartness despite a heavy load of responsibilities and grief, and Forte shines as the tentative Ted learning to step off of life's sidelines.
The Dissolve
Sam Adams
Whether it's possible to go on loving somebody who's no longer himself is a momentous question that this movie largely ducks, ultimately providing an answer that seems imposed from without rather than arrived at organically.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Writer-director Steph Green develops it so patiently and notes its emotional dislocations so carefully that it never descends into cliche.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
"Run & Jump" is as real and messy as life itself.
Los Angeles Times
Inkoo Kang
Though Forte might be the draw, veteran British actress Maxine Peake is the showstopper of Green's family drama set in Ireland. Peake is charisma incarnate as Vanetia ...
Village Voice
Chris Packham
Maxine Peake is a revelation in Run & Jump, communicating vitality and extraordinary optimism that practically bleeds out and infects the visuals.
CinemaBlend
Kristy Puchko
Run and Jump offers a bittersweet but warm story of love and loss, propelled by an excellent cast of earnest and gamely vulnerable performers.

Jenni Miller
This new phase of Forte's career as a dramatic actor is promising.
Oregonian
Jamie S. Rich
"Run & Jump" turns out to be more emotionally satisfying by not providing simplistic cures for serious maladies.
amNewYork
Robert Levin
The movie is too pleasant, too sweet and too tidily assembled given the central trauma.
Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
Keogan and Green's resolution, which underplays melodrama and avoids sentimentality, is unusually (and, given the characters' natures, appropriately) restrained.
Variety
Ronnie Scheib
Steph Green's debut feature captures the beauty of an obviously flawed family with remarkable warmth and immediacy.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
In detailing the different ways that people can react to a common problem, the film does a good job of illustrating the social difficulties that emerge when layers of performance break down
Tucson Weekly
Bob Grimm
I'm really liking Will Forte's dramatic efforts. While on the subject of Will, I just want to say that his Potato Chip Thief sketch on SNL was brilliant.
