Tim Brennan About Boulder If there’s one thing that Step Back, Doors Closing reminds us it’s the idea that our strongest connections can come out of nowhere. It’s a smart, sweet, perceptive indie film that deserves to be seen. Apr 21, 2025 Full Review Alejandro Turdó Hoy Sale Cine Step Back, Doors Closing operates as detached as possible from the usual tropes of the Rom-Com genre to deal with concepts such as love, chance and destiny, reminding us to make the best out of every experience coming our way, no matter how big or small. Mar 18, 2025 Full Review Jim Schembri jimschembri.com A pleasant ramble about the buds of young love. But a ramble it is, no doubt accounting for too many moments where too little happens...one aspect where Carter Ward scores 10/10 is the work he elicits from his young leads. No signs of first-takeitis here. Rated: 2.5/5 Mar 6, 2025 Full Review Q.V. Hough Vague Visages "'Step Back, Doors Closing' is essential viewing for Gen Z movie lovers, Washington D.C. natives and anyone who remains entranced by Linklater's 'Before Sunrise.'" Mar 4, 2025 Full Review Jonita Davis The Black Cape (Medium) If there were a genre for Step Back, Doors Closing, a new film from writer/director Carter Ward, it would be the same genre as the Meg Ryan and Diane Keaton romance comedies of the late 80s and 90s. Feb 25, 2025 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com From its opening moments, I'm pretty certain that you're going to enjoy writer/director Carter Ward's feature debut Step Back, Doors Closing. Rated: 3.5/4.0 Jan 25, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
