"Buried Child is an acting showcase, plain and simple. Every actor in the cast gets the chance to shine and show off, so don't be surprised to see some actors nominated come Golden Reel season." - Paul Landon, Film School Rejects
"Not really the tone one would expect from an Eastwood-directed film, but as a director he wisely keeps things simple, and as an actor he gives one of his better performances in a long time." - Audrey Columbus, Collider
"The adaptation doesn't quite capture the maniacal tone of Shepard's play, but it features a great return to form from Brendan Fraser, along with a bunch of other strong character work from its cast." - Desmond Rogers, TIME Magazine
