Poignant and emotional, the film delves into the our human condition through relationship situations that are totally relatable.

Cultured Vultures

This is only the second feature from [Michael Glover] Smith, and unfortunately, it is his inexperience, not his very real skill, that comes through.

Rated: 4/10

Every Movie Has a Lesson

Public musings and private confessions get louder and more pointed to observe the further Smith takes them.

Rated: 4/5

Joshua Speiser

Film Threat

Aiming to be insightful melodrama about the communication barriers between men and women, and the true meaning of love, Mercury in Retrograde is hoisted on its own petard and ends up distancing rather than embracing salient topics it attempts to tackle.

Rated: 2/5

This is a real life drama that people face in relationships every day, seeking answers to serious questions, and trying to find that magic to maintain a lifelong friendship with the one you love. The story is funny, emotional, hopeful, sad, and pulls at your heart from all directions. It is an easy watch and the actors are all top shelf! I felt like I was on a trip with these people in their vacation cabin in Michigan. Such a delightful film! Thanks to Michael Glover Smith for not only writing a thought provoking film but also his direction of the actors that pulled off a fantastic story!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
