Noel Murray Los Angeles Times May 8, 2021
The plot in "Silo" ultimately proves too thin, with not enough fleshing out of either the shared history of the characters or the particulars of the extraction. Go to Full Review

The shooting is picturesque, the acting overbaked. Go to Full Review

4/10
Admirably straightforward in a way that feels absolutely right for these characters. Unfortunately, Silo still feels underdeveloped in its straightforwardness, rendering a simple story sadly stillborn. Go to Full Review

7/10
Thankfully, even with its faults, Burnette succeeds in delivering a film that makes us think about the perils farmers endure every day so that we may eat. A lot of thought went into it, and it deserves credit for this, despite its shortcomings. Go to Full Review
