Perfect Sense fails on several levels, leaving the audience to wish the proceedings were extended by another half-hour to flesh out some of its more intriguing ideas.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Feb 23, 2023

Bizarre parable on love during a pandemic in modern-day Glasgow.

| Original Score: B- | Nov 30, 2020

Scottish director David Mackenzie's Perfect Sense, play with the best kind of futurism: just like today, except for one crucial difference.

| Feb 28, 2020

A refreshingly original vision of a theme movies have been playing on for ages.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 6, 2019

There are a few moments where the main character arcs seems a tad too convenient, in the typical romantic comedy vein, but it's easy to let that slide amidst the momentum of everything else happening on screen.

| Mar 4, 2019

Compared to the latest crop of movies this year, this limited-release indie is startlingly profound.

| Jan 28, 2019

Manages what all great sci-fis achieve: making an imaginative idea worm its way into your head, until you start seeing the world in a strange new light.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 1, 2018

A beautifully intricate and personal piece of cinema, bolstered by phenomenal direction, terrific performances and truly affecting, surprisingly original screenplay.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 14, 2018

This is not to say that "Perfect Sense" has no charm because it does. It's just that it's hard to make perfect sense of what director David MacKenzie had in mind.

A love story that never is never corny or predictable. [Full review in Spanish]

Ewan McGregor and Eva Green are excellent.

| Original Score: B+ | Aug 11, 2014

This film from David Mackenzie is such a curiously inert experience that never satisfies as a romance, a sci-fi drama or as a social parable.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 27, 2012

It's hard to grab hold of this piece, difficult to grasp on what it is exactly the director and the writer are trying to say, and while plenty of individual moments border on sensational on the whole this one left me scratching my head.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Mar 17, 2012

The most depressing film in recent memory might be this low-budget apocalyptic Irish romance.

| Mar 9, 2012

Each deprivation is preceded by a flurry of emotion that leads to the film's most vivid sequences.

| Original Score: B- | Feb 9, 2012

An intriguing apocalyptic romance with a multi-purpose title.

| Original Score: B+ | Feb 8, 2012

The problem with Perfect Sense is its inability to be effective as either a character-based love story or something larger and more bold.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Feb 7, 2012
