	Author	Review
United States	Owen Gleiberman Variety	"The movie is the sort of mess that seems to keep starting over, and you may wind up wishing that you could transport the character to a better film, one that wasn’t too busy undercutting the audience to give it something to rely on."	NEG
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"The film is watchable in its quirky and wayward way, with some funny moments – though shallower than it thinks (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Ben Croll IndieWire	"'Spoor' remains witty throughout, breaking even the tensest moments with the lead’s acid-tongued appraisals of the local hunters and their 'testosterone related autism'. Lead actress Mandat gives a totally committed performance"	POS
United States	Deborah Young The Hollywood Reporter	"Well aimed, but ultimately off-target."	NEG
United States	Chuck Bowen Slant	"'Spoor' blends its mystery with a communal character study, allowing the genres to uncomfortably cohabitate (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United Kingdom	Sarah Ward Screendaily	"'Spoor’s rumination upon mistreatment none-too-subtly but effectively extends beyond the animal realm (...) Shot with an eye for beauty lurking beneath the seeming bleakness"	POS
