Trespass Against Us Reviews
On the lam, the film too often grinds its gears and dulls its edgy tone. The turn-over-a-new-leaf elements of parental challenges lack engagement come up empty.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 4, 2023
Director Adam Smith wallows a little too long in Chad's plight, but with two ever-watchable actors like Fassbender and Gleeson, 'Trespass Against Us' rises from the mire just enough.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 13, 2021
It's a shame they're not given material that draws out parts we don't know. This talent combination ought to surprise instead of simply satisfy.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 30, 2021
A couple of quirky, pulse racing the action sequences-Fassbender hides under a cow!-inject some spunk into what otherwise is a lifeless affair.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 28, 2021
I've seen character studies of people like this before, but when you slot in such great actors, everything feels heightened and delightful in its defiance.

Trespass Against Us often feels aimless, the premise is stretched over ninety minutes for no apparent reason. While we care about the outcome, the film could have use a rewrite and a less-chiseled star.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 28, 2020
An exceptional ensemble really delivers in a film that might otherwise have struggled to attract attention.
| Original Score: 5/5 | Mar 6, 2019
Trespass Against Us may not live up to the expectations that its two leading actors would bring, but it's still a modestly paced, entertaining drama.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 31, 2018
It's lovely to look at and provides food for thought, but it never hits home emotionally.
| Original Score: B- | Oct 19, 2018
A horrifying scenario but context is given that the hopelessness of their situation can be broken if there is the will.
| Aug 24, 2018
Gleeson and Fassbender are class acts who bring an ever-mounting intensity to well-written and cleverly observed proceedings that turn out to be about education, defiance and power.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 16, 2017
On-the-nose-ness, multiplied across the film's running time, undermines the film's sturdy dramatic arc and absorbing local texture.
| Sep 28, 2017
The film has some charm but it's confused and, ultimately, unsatisfying.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 5, 2017
Trespass Against Me feels like a missed opportunity. Be reassured though, Michael Fassbender doesn't let his fans down.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 17, 2017
Trespass Against Us is an overwhelmingly forgettable film, telling an unoriginal story with no artistic swagger that can make it feel fresh again.
| Mar 12, 2017
Caught between tradition, suspicion and the reality of modern life, Trespass Against Us makes its point about the shackles and constraints of freedom very well.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 9, 2017
Fassbender and Gleeson gnash through the mangled "Cheltenham backstreet" accent with vim and eat up one or two jaw-clenching scenes.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 6, 2017
What sets Trespass Against Us apart is the fact that its milieu, the Traveller community, is one rarely seen outside Gypsy wedding-style 온라인카지노추천 series.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 5, 2017
Honest yet non-judgemental, this puts the viewer in mind of Brit indie legend Shane Meadows...and that's no bad thing.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 3, 2017
The story has pace and vigour, the performances are good and this is Fassbender as you've never seen him before.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 3, 2017
