Adam Nayman Globe and Mail May 29, 2015
3/4
It's a quintessentially Canadian idea mixed in with the material Moneo borrows from various hard-boiled film noirs and sun-dappled westerns. Go to Full Review

2/4
Big Muddy often looks darkly sublime but the script, expanded by Moneo from his 2011 short, isn't quite up to the task. Go to Full Review

4/5
Big Muddy is set in the present, but it doesn't have to be. The prairie-noir premise is pretty timeless. Go to Full Review

2/4

3/5

4/4
