The Road Dance Ratings & Reviews

August 31, 2025
Superb! Really Drama with lot of heartbeat!
Geek Vibes Nation
Cody Allen
The Road Dance presents a beautifully crafted narrative, albeit with a few imperfections, that explores a woman's unwavering resilience amidst adversity.

Jackie K. Cooper
A serendipity of a movie with twists and turns I absolutely did not see coming.
One Guy's Opinion
Frank Swietek
Essentially a period tearjerker about a woman's resilience in the face of tragedy, but an evocative, emotionally effective one, anchored by a powerful lead performance by Hermione Corfield.
Newcity
Ray Pride
A small beauty, old-fashioned in emotion and technique, a pocket epic shot in the 4:3 Academy ratio of the earliest feature films. The storytelling is old-fashioned, but its raptures dear; the landscapes are timeless. Hopeful, it sweeps, even soars.
Reel Talk with Chuck and Pam
Charles Koplinski
Carrying most of the burden is Corfield, who is outstanding. The actor channels Kirsty's despair in a way that cuts straight to your heart. You simply can't take your eyes off her, her conviction in the role a force to be reckoned with.

Glenn Kenny
We're left with the pretty scenery and a free-floating sense of inconsequentiality.
Boston Herald
James Verniere
Scottish Gothic-romantic entry boasts fine lead turn by Hermione Corfield and sweeping novelistic detail.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
Strong performances and striking visuals elevate this true-life Scottish melodrama above its narrative conventions.
TheArtsStl
Sarah Boslaugh
... committed acting performances, particularly by the primary trio of Corfield, Morven Christie, and Ali Fumiko Whitney (the latter as Kirsty's mother and sister), elevate this film far beyond what the rather mundane scripting gives them to work with.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
An old-fashioned melodrama, The Road Dance isn't quite up to the task of tackling the severity of the traumatic event at its core.
Wall Street Journal
Zachary Barnes
The result has neither the full force of realism nor the emotional pleasures of melodrama; what it most calls to mind is something seen and half-forgotten on PBS.
New York Times
Beatrice Loayza
A standard period drama that arrives at hard truths with a hammy delivery.
Beverly Hills Courier
Neely Swanson
"The Road Dance" is well worth a turn on the dance floor, delivering nicely on the time you invest in these characters and their situation.
Common Sense Media
Kat Halstead
However, what unfolds in The Road Dance is an engaging, beautifully filmed, and intimately acted tale of trauma, grief, resilience, and hope.
Keith & the Movies
Keith Garlington
As the drama unfolds to the ruggedly gorgeous backdrop, it's hard not be swept away. But we're always brought back to earth, in large part thanks to the revelatory lead work from Hermione Corfield - a star in the making.
The Jewish Chronicle
Linda Marric
Contrivances aside, The Road Dance is often elevated by two stunning central performances courtesy Corfield and Fletcher, while Petra Korner's stunning cinematography gorgeously captures the arid solitude of Hebridean landscape.
Cultured Vultures
George White
A period drama that packs a punch, with great performances and an unexpectedly impactful story at its core.
Film Threat
Bradley Gibson
The quiet pace of The Road Dance, along with the ebbs and flows of the events around the characters, give it an authenticity and space to feel the impact. You may be captivated just as the filmmaker and I were.
Orca Sound
Carey-Ann Pawsey
A slow, tempered film by director Richie Adams which features a small town, the joy of dancing, love, war, and tragedy.
