    Somehow the intimacy Moodysson clearly wants to achieve goes missing.

    7.5 / 10

    "Mammoth" is a perfectly decent film. Too bad it isn't more thoughtful. It's easy to regret misfortune if all you do is regret it.

    6 / 10

    An interesting idea, but "Mammoth"'s good intentions – like its characters’ – are lost somewhere in the delivery.

    5 / 10

    This overlong drama is the first (mostly) English-language film from the talented Swedish filmmaker Moodysson. Any semblance of subtlety was unfortunately lost in translation.

    Mr. Moodysson has never met a pleasure he didn’t want to punish.

    5 / 10

    But while Mammoth is frequently poignant and beautifully acted—especially by Williams, who’s so lost and lonely that she becomes casually cruel—the movie lacks the personal touch that’s distinguished even Moodysson’s “difficult” films.

    Translated from swedish: If you have a weakness for becoming bored and depressed all at once, "Mammoth" is a goldmine. Otherwise, it's enough to look at the beautiful poster that hints at the relationship drama that only emerges in the beginning.
    - Oskar Smulski
