It's hard to imagine another actor in the world who could elicit those particular responses to those moments, or who could make the wild narrative swing of the climactic encounter not only play, but play credibly.

2/4

Like so many women who unwisely spend too much time in gyms ruining their looks under the delusion of self-improvement, [Hunter's] muscles upstage her femininity. But the girl can still act.

3.5/5

As the focus of Strange Weather, Holly Hunter is her typical fantastic self, using her committed performance to ground a narrative about a familial tragedy.

Indie road trip dramedies are a dime a dozen now, and aside from Hunter's performance, there's not much to distinguish this one from so many others.

By placing the faith in her own direction and characters, and not plot histrionics, Dieckmann's intensely personal story feels all the more universal.

Carrie Coon proves once again that she's a phenomenal talent who is currently being severely under-utilized in the Hollywood ecosystem.

Holly Hunter is great, and so is most of the dialogue. But Carrie Coon steals the show.

Not the best movie from 2017.

Intensely gripping film showcasing a mother's seven year long battle with depresstion regarding her only child's suicide. Hunter, as expected, gives a searing performance. I just wanted her to be able to come to terms with her grief. Good supporting cast, especially the part of Byrdie, who's part was acted with an elegant understatement.

The chops are still evident in Hunter as she gives a heart wrenching performance but the screenplay lets her down.

I love Holly Hunter! This description from IMDb is accurate and beautiful: A poignant, lyrical drama about a mother (Hunter), who, in an effort to deal with the grief over the death of her son, travels the back roads of the deep south to settle a score. A story of grief and forgiveness, of looking inward to find a way to move forward.

Loved it, great performance. I really like how they actually portrayed living in the south yet also stayed with the story.
