REVIEWS:
“Jóhannsson’s background in Special Effects for Hollywood blockbusters (including locally shot Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Prometheus and Transformers: Age of Extinction) turns what’s really an intimate family drama into something far more interesting to audiences attuned to its odd brand of tale.” www.rogerebert.com
“Noomi Rapace, known for her absolute dedication to every role, carries the picture with her understated emotionality […] It should not go unmentioned that the supporting cast of sheep also add a striking emotive layer; the expressive eyes in the opening sequence set the tone for the events about to unfold. Lamb is a hidden gem…” www.theupcoming.co.uk
“The creature effects of the final scenes are quite striking, and the hybrid form that plays a central role is an inspired mix of puppetry, CG and physical performance, a presence both funny and poignant. Lamb is a disturbing experience but also a highly original take on the anxieties of being a parent, a tale in which nature plus nurture yields a nightmare.” www.hollywoodreporter.com
