Nick has settled into a safe existence in Brooklyn, where he toils on an archival project for his father-in-law. Soon, 20-something Naomi arrives from Australia to assist Nick for the semester. She has no acquaintances in the city beyond a loose family connection to Buddy, a music producer who lives in the same neighborhood. For the few months she spends around Nick, Buddy and their families, Naomi's presence upsets the unpleasant balance holding these two households together.

Critics Consensus

Golden Exits tells a small-scale tale whose seemingly mundane trappings belie a satisfying handful of finely tuned observations about modern life and relationships.

A movie that gazes deep into its characters' unhappiness and emerges with something searching, sad - and perilously close to likable.

4/5

Honestly, if it weren't for the performances this would probably be insufferable. But everyone in the film is good.

3/5

While you'll salute Golden Exits for never going full-on Fatal Attraction, it ends up feeling cagey, trapped in the realm of the theoretical and too hip to raise its tensions above a simmer.

This film doesn’t have an answer, but it does compel one to actually care about the stuff of their life.

As with Noah Baumbach’s films, on a certain level I wonder outside of a certain kind of tristate social nexus could possibly care about this — and, equally, I don’t really care.

Perry's aesthetic choice are also designed to obscure clarity. The film is grainy-warmly and beautifully so-while the sound design is such that everything is more or less at the level of room tone.

The film was shot in 15 days. It felt like it took that long to watch it. The character development had potential, but it was a paradise lost. The New York setting could have been utilyzed to it's benefit, but it was nowhere to be found. I kept hanging on for some plot development. It went down like a leak in an ignored tire... very slowly. I've rated movies this poorly due to gratuitous sex. That would have improved this loser.

Boring and too artsy for its own good. Golden Exists has a terrible plot and a worse script.

Not a bad watch, despite nothing much happening. Classic indie filmmaking.

There are some movies that are so bad that they become fascinating to watch just to see how bad they can be. This movie isn't bad. It isn't much of anything. However, it does take the feeling of boredom to levels at which it becomes inverted. The boredom that this movie generates becomes an end in itself. Don't expect to learn anything or feel anything with this movie. it just exists and that is about all I can say about it.
