Nothing Personal is a (mostly) quiet and contemplative film about forming a human connection after getting accustomed to being alone. The film is only 80 minutes long and doesn't outstay its welcome, but I couldn’t shake the feeling of emptiness that the film carries, despite good performances from Rea and Verbeek. Antoniak seems to incorporate bleakness into every facet of the film. It's a well-made, if a little pretentious at times, but I can't say I particularly enjoyed it.

"Two loners in an Irish coastal house negotiate their emotional distance in this debut feature, with an implausible script undermining strong performances and visual ambition." - Bill Weber

While a story is definately a rare one and has a way of capturing the feel of the travelling woman, I found the movie way too slow-paced and pointless (in certain spectres) to be enjoyable. The idea and the plot is there, but it all just fades away in a blush of slow, cloud-covered Irish countryside with short, senseless dialogues. I applaud the themes of solitude, society and a strange bond between the girl and the farmer though. Good potential, but not well spent in my opinion.

Solitary confinement and attempt to embrace that is not certainly an easy theme. But this debut feature does that formidably well while keeping the viewer thirsty for emotional outplay by the lead characters. The story and certainly the director holds potential, to a great extent

You can feel it undulating, pulsing. The film's look at solitude is excellent and really resonated with me, the performances and visuals are both strong and the final few minutes of the film are remarkable.

the scenery is its own character it is so beautiful. Just our sort of film, slow and real to life.
