Movie Reviews

Reviews:
"[A] drama of searing intimacy that trades the political for the personal in its reflections on gun violence and mental health." - 01/30/2021 Hollywood Reporter


"MASS was written and directed by Fran Kranz, who has never made a movie before but is a veteran actor, and he has crafted the dialogue so that it builds and flows and surges, revealing and concealing at the same time, drawing us to the center of its rhythms." - 01/30/2021 Variety


"The cast carries the film; Dowd, as Linda, is especially terrific." - 10/05/2021 A.V. Club


3.5 stars out of 4 -- "[A]n intimate four-character piece about the aftermath of a school shooting that unfolds mostly in one room, letting a powerhouse cast and a thoughtful script carry much of the burden of meaning." - 10/08/2021 RogerEbert.com


"Excruciating drama deals with a school shooting’s aftermath as two sets of parents meet up years after the devastating tragedy, in a difficult and impeccably acted film about forgiveness and blame." - 12/07/2021 The Guardian


"Kranz approaches his portrait of moral injury and its sequelae with a carefully calibrated mix of ruthlessness and compassion.” - 12/28/2021 Washington Post
