Glassland is impressive, although Barrett struggles to give this carefully crafted narrative a coherent resolution.
March 31, 2016
A downbeat serving of kitchen-sink social realism with the sink itself thrown in for good measure.

The dialogue is sparse, and a certain plot point is so vague as to be positively confusing. But the actors accomplish a lot with a hooded look, a weary sigh and a guilty sip of wine.

In the movie's best scene, as mother and son dance to an old pop song, the look on Reynor's face speaks volumes about loss and hope. It's a look that's going to be breaking hearts on screen for decades to come.

It earns its tears, even if it skimps out on everything else.

Glassland has a minimalist purity to it, and Barrett avoids manipulation and lets the images and characters speak for themselves.

You've seen stories of substance abuse and its effects on a family, but rarely one as deeply unsentimental and candid as this one.

There's much in the movie to admire until it runs headlong into a stone wall.
