Shadows in the Sun Reviews
Daily Telegraph (UK)
Tim Robey
Tiny things happen oversignificantly in this indulgent British effort set in 1960s.
Guardian
Andrew Pulver
The film ends up verging on the inconsequential.
Times (UK)
Wendy Ide
There's more drama in a breakfast cereal ad.
Time Out
Dave Calhoun
A serene amble through an inoffensive landscape.
News of the World
Robbie Collin
It can be hard putting the boot into low-budget films that have clearly been a labour of love- but it's a lot easier when they're as cr*p as this.
Financial Times
Nigel Andrews
Time stands all but motionless. Wilby keeps plinking Trumerei on the Bechstein. And there is, no doubt, honey still for tea. Two stars for comfort, one star for originality.
London Evening Standard
Derek Malcolm
Shadows in the Sun unfurls as quietly as a mouse and could be accused of lacking urgency and bite. But it is well played.
Daily Express (UK)
Caroline Jowett
Shadows is an understated tale that could have used a little more fire but Simmons' presence helps to make it touching.
Film4
Sam Jordison
A worthy entry on Jean Simmons' impressive CV - and hopefully not the last. Shadows In The Sun might not be Spartacus but it does have a charm of its own.
Sky Cinema
Rob Daniel
Heartfelt and well-behaved, this slight story of a divorced man attempting a reconciliation with his prickly mum is gracefully watchable, but resistant to embrace any actual drama.
Total Film
Tom Dawson
A cosy Sunday-evening telly slot surely beckons.
Daily Mirror (UK)
David Edwards
A movie that has the same effect as a handful of Mogadon. It's so utterly dull they ought to give out prizes to anyone who keeps their eyes open to the end. Personally, I resorted to two carefully-placed matchsticks.
