Hogg maintains a probing detachment and a cold intimacy. As befits the title, she presents her subjects like specimens in an exhibit, with a rigorously structured style that is non-judgmental and unsparing.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Aug 28, 2014

It's a very brave and unapologetically cerebral approach to have taken, but it often feels like there's just too little there, too few life rings thrown to the average, non-art-student viewer, to keep us engaged.

| Original Score: C | Aug 24, 2014

If "Exhibition" lacks conventionally developed characters and dialogue, it is visually enthralling.

| Jun 19, 2014

A film that's all airy, abstract pretentiousness.

| Jun 17, 2014

Hogg's third feature magnifies the relationship between people and the spaces they live in with a keen eye for the way the two tend to blend together.

| Original Score: A- | Jun 17, 2014

The importance of Location, Location, Location in the British psyche cannot be overemphasised. Joanna Hogg's brilliantly austere and intimate portrait of a marriage recognises this.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Jun 16, 2014

The whole thing teeters between very boring and completely fascinating.

| Jun 16, 2014

Beautifully shot with an acute eye for crisp composition, this intimate mood piece explores the subtle intricacies and low-level power struggles of long-term love in forensic detail.

| Jun 16, 2014

There's considerable talent on display in Exhibition, but it's the kind of thing people mean when they use the term "art film" as a pejorative.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 15, 2014

Exhibition proclaims itself to be an assertively front-facing film: an object knowingly placed on view, inviting or challenging us to contemplate it from outside.

| Apr 28, 2014

Exhibition reaffirms Hogg's status as a distinctive, singular and challenging voice of British cinema.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 27, 2014

A follow-up to the terrific, unconventional Archipelago that continues Hogg's ascent as one of Britain's more interesting independent filmmakers.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 25, 2014

Hogg's quietly ambitious film, like the characters it depicts, is a little too in thrall to the airless, deadened space of the house.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 25, 2014

Joanna Hogg's intimate portrait of married life is her finest offering yet.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 24, 2014

A marriage, a house and its rooms and sounds, and a move, all filmed in a manner that seems both improvised and relaxed while at the same time controlled and formal.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 24, 2014

This a movie quite uninterested in the structural conventions of narrative, though there is a story - of a sort. It is also uninterested in the conventional tonal imperative of irony, though there is comedy, and tragedy - of a sort.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Apr 24, 2014

Work from the forefront of our new national cinema, and it rattles your nerves like stones in a tin.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 24, 2014

Writer-director Joanna Hogg doesn't present a cohesive story so much as drop a viewer into a series of inscrutable moments. We deal more with impressions than facts.
