Reviews for Spring Forward
A breath of fresh air, and an antidote to all the mindless drivel Hollywood churns out on a regular basis.
Here’s a film that values good dialogue and complex characters over dramatic gimmicks and cheap action.
A remarkable film, totally absorbing from the first frame to the last. It's a marvel of simplicity and depth, comfort and compassion.
every moment is jam packed with a philosophical or heavy moment, never giving his characters a chance to breath
The performances are all fine and heartfelt, but the story itself never provides much reason for us to care.
