	Author	Review
United States	Jason Bailey The Playlist	"A fine debut, the kind of film that's so immensely, intensely personal that it becomes universal"	POS
United States	Nate Richard Collider	"A truthful portrait of the experience of having an eating disorder (...) Snow clearly shows potential as a filmmaker"	POS
United States	Jude Dry IndieWire	"There's very little structure to the narrative beyond their dance of mutual self-flagellation, and neither character is charismatic enough to help this ambling bittersweet romance leave a mark"	NEG
United States	Rod Machen Austin Chronicle	"The inevitable climax of 'Parachute' not only hits hard but is set up perfectly by all that comes before"	POS
United States	Leslie Felperin The Hollywood Reporter	"A finely observed study of modern manners and mores on a micro-budget that’s nevertheless rich in feeling"	POS
United States	Damon Wise Deadline	"The point you might expect to be labored is delicately handled (...) Disappointingly, there’s a lot of extraneous commotion all around it that, rather like its main character, makes 'Parachute' kind of hard to warm to"	NEU
United States	Jessica Kiang Variety	"Powered by good intentions and therapeutic orthodoxies about the necessity of learning to love yourself, 'Parachute' may be truthful but can wander close to trite"	NEU
