Critic Reviews:
- " Equals boasts] stunning cinematography, futuristic effects, and an impossibly controlled narrative. " – Candice Frederick
- " Doremus can't quite make the emotional breakthroughs rewarding enough to justify the slow buildup, but the icy beauty of the film makes it worth watching. " – Kyle Smith
- "It's all a little slow and stoic and familiar, but we thaw whenever Hoult scoops Stewart into his arms for a puppyish hug. " – Amy Nicholson
