REVIEWS

Michael Talbot-Haynes at Film Threat: “You will hold a grudge against yourself for the rest of your life if you don’t catch the dynamite indie drama Resentment, written and directed by Noah Millman.”

Ronak Kotecha at ReviewRon: “Resentment is a film that starts off just like any other indie — loud, dramatic and limited — but the way it moves forward, backed by strong writing and terrific performances, allows it to gradually become a film that grows on you and ultimately leaves a lasting impression, populated by characters that feel raw, real and honestly etched.”

Surya Komal at Just For Movie Freaks: “Resentment is a film that understands its limitations and turns them into its greatest strength. It doesn’t need elaborate locations or conventional action to create conflict because the conflict is already sitting at the table.”

Rebecca at Film Carnage: “The genre blend which Noah Millman has put together with Resentment is quite a rare one . . . a strong erotic vein with a touch of psychological warfare that’s bordering on thriller. . .”

Lauren Weiner at Third Coast Review: “There’s a lot Resentment wants to do. Above all else, it strives to talk about the nuanced, multi-faceted aspects of personal failures, innate human selfishness, and broken friendships and marriages . . . It’s not too common for movies today to focus solely on the unlikable, disappointing people in the world. It's admirable when one does.”

Shikhar Verma at High on Films: “Millman’s minimalist, low-budget chamber-piece tries to piece together the reason why jealousy sets in between friends – especially the ones who, at some point in their lives, would have laid down their lives for the other.”

Julia Peterson at The Hollywood Times: “The film oozes sensuality, longing, and yearning layered with concealment and denial.”
