Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 48/100 --
The Unloved is a promising debut for director Morton, but it's sometimes too sensitive where it should be insightful.

Rating: B- --
As an overall representation of horrors, neglect, and personal solace, it's frustratingly static, often preferring the cool waters of esoteric cinema to something more charged and insightful.

Morton shows a remarkable confidence as director of this intensely personal drama, which is loosely based on her own experiences.

Shadows on the Wall
Rating: 4/5 --
Realised with impeccable craftsmanship, Samantha Morton's directorial debut never puts a foot wrong dramatically, although its unflinching stare at a young life stymied by neglect offers little in the way of comfort.

Sky Cinema
Everything Ms. Morton has done in her career has brought her to making this film. Even if she never directs again, The Unloved will stand as an intelligent achievement.

Critic's Notebook
Rating: 4/5 --
Windsor's taciturn and stoic central performance is both haunting and affecting, framed by Morton's deliberate, even stately direction.

Time Out
Rating: 4/5 --
Funny, real, poetic and frightening, not the gruelling tract about neglect you might expect.
