The Tree Reviews
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Calvin Wilson
"The Tree" might have suffered from too much symbolism if not for writer-director Julie Bertuccelli's deft touch and Gainsbourg's appealing performance.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Despite the potential for some supernatural grandiosity, the tone here remains understated and quiet, and Gainsbourg's performance feels lived-in, and deep, and right.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Beautifully filmed in the harsh, dry landscape, "The Tree" is often mesmerizing...
Detroit News
Tom Long
In the end, The Tree is something of a stretch; but it's a good stretch, a mix of mysticism and family dynamics both satisfying and intriguing.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
It's simply vagueness.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
It's not exactly subtle. But it works.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
A movie that's content to stand still.
Los Angeles Times
Sheri Linden
Bertuccelli uses the scrubbed topography of Queensland, Australia, to mostly eloquent effect, although her mystical symbols can be as on-the-nose as her dialogue.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
This is an easy movie to watch. If only Julie Bertuccelli had more trust in her most interesting stuff.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Pacing problems and shallow psychological inquiries plague this film almost as much as the overworked metaphor that supplies the film's title.
Film Comment Magazine
Laura Kern
[It] would be much easier to write off as silly and self-serious, if it weren't so involving.
Hollywood Reporter
Ray Bennett
It's well worth seeing the performance of young Morgana Davies as Simone, a child who becomes convinced that her late father speaks and listens to her through the comforting branches of the tree next to her house.
TheWrap
Alonso Duralde
What makes The Tree feel like a movie about actual people and not just writer's constructs are the powerful performances by Gainsbourg and young Davies.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
"The Tree" is slow-moving, but if given a chance, it will (pardon the pun) grow on you.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
The movie is truly a tree-hugger's delight (I confess to being one such hugger) that makes the most of its metaphors without straining toward supernatural schmaltz.
Village Voice
Melissa Anderson
In her second film, writer-director Julie Bertuccelli is sometimes partial to clumsy dialogue. But Gainsbourg and Davies, almost feral with her mass of untamed blond curls, make a memorable parent-child pair.
NPR
Scott Tobias
In the end, the metaphor dominates. At every turn, the fig tree makes a statement.
AV Club
Noel Murray
The Tree is well-acted, and Bertuccelli successfully makes some obvious metaphors come off as unforced.
Slant Magazine
Andrew Schenker
While there's a fine line between the sacred and kitschy, Julie Bertuccelli's film nearly always falls on the latter half of the divide.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
"The Tree" falls short of being revelatory, yet has a mysterious, sturdy power that grows on you.
