	Media	Author	Review
		Rodrigo Perez IndieWire	"'Meadowland (...) suffers from a clunky script, but is reinforced by its fully committed lead actors and the director’s sharp eye for mood and communicating incalculable devastation"
		John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter	"A convincing look at the limbo of parental mourning (...) Wilde loses herself in this unmoored character very convincingly"
		Jordan Hoffman The Guardian	"Meadowland is powerful film-making, though, hardly light entertainment (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Neil Genzlinger The New York Times	"Olivia Wilde and Luke Wilson, do a fine job of making you forget how often you’ve seen similar treatments."
		Brian Tallerico rogerebert.com	"In the end, it feels like Morano didn’t trust her actors quite enough to be the conduits of emotion, falling back on too many filmmaking and screenwriting tropes that hamper the realism of their work (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"
