Though it’s set almost a century ago, The Light Between Oceans feels like a refugee from a more recent past—the misty, Miramax-y ’90s.

As a drama about adult responsibility, selfishness and moral obligations, however, it never wavers in its commitment to examine what it means to raise a child.

The Light Between Oceans seems almost single-minded in its pursuit of theme; by the time the nationality of the dead man in the boat is revealed.

The Light Between Oceans: Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander show breath-catching depth.

Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander give heartfelt performances in a tale of love and sacrifice that isn’t afraid to hit cymbal-crashing levels of sentimentality.

Everything in The Light Between Oceans is deeply felt and dramatically precise, in a way that seems destined to become profoundly personal for each and every viewer.

The Light Between Oceans at its best has everything to do with the acting — and if all Cianfrance ever gives us is that, it's worth the price of his lagging third act.

Derek Cianfrance’s ‘The Light Between Oceans’ Is Beautiful, But Can’t Sustain Its Melodramatic Grace Notes

Cianfrance, who also helmed the powerful Blue Valentine, does show an innate knack for telling a gripping story that doesn’t let any of its characters off easy.

This is a film that I kept wanting to emotionally connect with and give myself over to the human power of its tragedy, but it kept pushing me away.

"The Light Between Oceans" remains compelling throughout its two-hour-plus run time, but for a melodrama that walks and talks like a weepy, it has a strangely unemotional reserv...

Previously Cianfrance never strayed to the wrong side of the line between soulful and soapy. In this film he sometimes does.

And, let’s face it, there’s very little not to recommend staring at Fassbender’s limpid blue eyes and square jaw for a couple of hours during the dog days of summer.

“The Light Between Oceans” is an oddly old-fashioned enterprise, wedded to the principle that love conquers all.

Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander star in a somber period romantic weeper that's daring enough to go to dark places.

Emotionally speaking, this film lays the foundation for a mansion, and then decides at the last minute to construct a gazebo instead.

When I found myself rooting for the reappearance of a particular coat (on Isabel; fitted, peplum’d, quite smart), rather than the characters, I knew the movie was lost at sea.

Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender are the finely chiseled, perfectly lighted husband and wife with a secret in "The Light Between Oceans."

Not even two of Hollywood's brightest stars can save this water-logged melodrama about a lighthouse keeper and his wife.

The latest from Derek Cianfrance is 132 minutes of slow-motion relationship crash-and-burn.
