Critics' reviews

"[It] relies too heavily on tired stereotypes (...) [It] deploys some talented performers on both sides of the camera but its promising parts never quite cohere into a properly satisfying whole

Neil Young: The Hollywood Reporter
"The film’s whisper-thin premise and sitcom-like characters are the cinema equivalent of Sweethearts candy: rather too sugared, and immediately forgotten."

Jay Weissberg: Variety
"An ode to suburbia: a celebration of the ordinary (...) It’s a strong directorial debut from Bird"

Kaleem Aftab: Cineuropa
"A small movie with a big heart (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"

Mark Kermode: The Guardian
"If the film never completely coheres into a satisfying whole, Days Of The Bagnold Summer has a lot going for it (...) It also suggests Simon Bird is a filmmaker worth watching (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"

Ian Freer: Empire
