Critic Reviews of "Bitter Melon"
New York TimesDecember 06, 2018The movie grinds to a halt in its final third as the characters talk things out, which might be helpful in life but in drama tends to belabor the obvious, as well as offer an easy exit.
VarietyMay 18, 2018Domestic violence and black comedy don't seem a natural match, but to an impressive degree "Bitter Melon" pulls off their shotgun marriage.
Gay EssentialNovember 03, 2018Only a brilliant and gifted director can manage to make grueling topics like domestic abuse mesh well with dry humor and dramedy.
Gay City NewsOctober 19, 2018Mendoza adroitly sneaks in other messages, such as thoughtful discussions of both racism and effeminacy in the gay community. The cast is uniformly strong with Schneider particularly appealing as Declan, the perhaps-not-so-moral center of the family.
Film ThreatSeptember 17, 2018There are scenes of utter brilliance and honesty, then clunky scenes of melodrama the next. The plot that exemplifies why we love independent cinema. We are off the rails where anything could happen and the story is at once cliché and bracingly original.
