Sabrina Doyle's film is acutely observed; It features a particularly fine performance from Jena Malone; A film that appreciates the value of fantasy in the bleakest of circumstances, "Lorelei" deftly balances despair and hope
Sabrina Doyle's feature debut, the blue-collar dramatic love story "Lorelei", is not perfect; But the film's ambition and honesty, along with its despondent and lyrical mood, will linger with you long after the credits roll
an uneven blue-collar melodrama lifted by its leads; Pablo Schreiber and Jena Malone hustle to overcome movie-ish dialogue and clichéd story dynamics, investing their life-bruised characters with authentic feeling
"Lorelei" is compelling and heart-wrenching, with emotional intelligence and sophistication that strikes deep. A beautiful film with truly impressive chemistry out of the leads
