A windingly intricate and delirious sci-fi thrill ride washes over the senses and steadily flows through Caddo Lake.

1.5/4

There's enough plot for about 30 or 45 minutes, stretched to feature film length.

C-

Held and George’s film twists and turns, but charting their narrative swamp is a simple and unrewarding exercise.

3/4

It helps to have a pair of leads who commit to the immediacy of their characters, never winking at the camera like lesser performers would with a script that’s this fundamentally insane.

Caddo Lake may not be for everyone, but it’s definitely a conversation starter. It’s the kind of film you’ll want to discuss afterward, trying to figure out how all the pieces fit—or if they even fit at all. It’s messy, confusing, and at times brilliant.

4.5/5

Caddo Lake‘s subtext relies on how much the human brain functions, including the psychological concept of memory and people’s ability to deal with information as they please.

Brilliant movie and I've pretty much seem every time travel/mind bending movie thats been made. Yet somehow this gem of a film totally eluded me. The acting was phenomenal, story line insane and kept me glued to the screen right till the end. If you loved Dark you'll love Caddo Lake.

Loved it! Not very many movies these days have me wondering at the plot; a nice change! Great acting, beautiful scenery and an epic story. Definitely recommend.

anyone developing a storyline as complex and mindblowing as this one while not losing the plot is a complete genius. Go and watch it!

Meh, it was interesting. Acting was fine. A little slow at first and gets distracting while you’re trying to piece everything together thinking we’re getting to the climax and then you realize that the puzzle was the climax and it’s over. Could have been better. The information is interesting just not sure what to do with it.
