“Liable to leave audiences in
a cold sweat, this fever dream immersion into parental stress connects with
thunderous force thanks to Rose Byrne's gutsy star turn and director Mary
Bronstein's uncompromising vision.”
Rotten Tomatoes
“If I Had Legs I’d Kick You vibrates with a primordial love
and respect for its heroine, one that self-evidently stems from Bronstein’s own
experiences as a mother, but the film refuses to wink at its audience or often
even the slightest hint of memeable solidarity.”
IndieWire
“Bronstein crafts a thriller of teeth-grinding magnificence
centred on Byrne as the indefatigable figure at the centre of this whirlwind of
unsolicited advice.”
Time Out
“Bronstein infuses every moment of If I Had Legs... with a
jagged kind of intensity, stringing together scenes with an adrenalized
propulsion that makes a story of a mother struggling against a world pitted
against her feel both singular and universal.”
The Globe and Mail
“This exploration of the unfiltered self leads us to the
deepest crevices. Just like in astrophysics, it’s unclear where this black hole
will lead us, or if we will ever be able to come back.”
