Tim Cogshell FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) It's a really strong film. Perhaps a little repetitious... But nevertheless the thoughts and the notions going on here are very moving. Feb 1, 2024 Full Review Mark Kermode Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube) A very confident piece of direction from Mahalia Belo. Jan 23, 2024 Full Review Clarisse Loughrey Independent (UK) The concept here is a little more potent than any individual scene, since there’s a tendency to undercut raw emotion with a tidy metaphor. But Comer gracefully draws attention back to the core of Hunter’s story. Rated: 3/5 Jan 18, 2024 Full Review James Croot Stuff.co.nz Evoking memories of everything from Children of Men and Spielberg’s War of the Worlds to the 1980s BBC version of The Day of the Triffids, this nightmarish and brilliant near-future-set British drama deserved a far better fate than as an online rental. Rated: 4/5 Jun 25, 2024 Full Review Patrick Cremona Radio Times Comer is exceptional throughout and there are some especially great scenes after her character bonds with a kindred soul, spiritedly played by Katherine Waterston. Rated: 3/5 May 2, 2024 Full Review Carla Hay Culture Mix Jodie Comer's riveting performance is the main reason to watch The End We Start From, an occasionally vague but well-acted survival story about a new mother trying to survive with her baby during an environmental crisis.

Johnathan B Worth a watch. Beautiful celluloid! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/22/24 Full Review Ghederick Eshmont Profoundly English & an extremely meditative study of the primal essence of protecting one’s child. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/09/23 Full Review Aldis H The barometer for me with a movie like this is if I'm moved at the end. I was not. It was so slow I skimmed a lot of it. The pace killed almost all the emotion it could have elicited. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/08/24 Full Review Tina M It’s one of those “non films” Left me wondering if there was going to be a twist at the end but there wasn’t Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/07/24 Full Review K H Beautifully acted. Too drawn out and a weak ending. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/06/24 Full Review Savannah G Jodie Comer Soley is the reason to see this brief yet impactful film—it is one that you feel distant from yet so understandably close. It is sprinkled with Loss and disbelief in Humanity yet recovered by the Kindred Souls that come together throughout with beautifully displayed friendship. It starts with a feeling of Desolation but ends with a sense of renewal. With the Indie feel of this British film, based on a book, I take away that this is a brilliantly acted and thoughtfully displayed Film. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/02/24 Full Review Read all reviews
