Reviews
Coastlines received mixed reviews from critics, reflected in its moderate ratings across major review platforms. On IMDb, it holds a 5.8/10, indicating a somewhat divided audience reception. Rotten Tomatoes reports a 48% approval rating, reflecting nearly an even split between positive and negative reviews. Critics praised Timothy Olyphant’s intense and brooding performance, commending his ability to embody the film's dark, desperate tone. However, some reviewers found the plot predictable and felt the film struggled to make the narrative distinct among other crime dramas. Metacritic scored it 56/100, summarizing the consensus as average, noting that while the movie delivers a raw atmosphere typical of neo-noir, it occasionally falters with pacing issues and underdeveloped characters. Despite its shortcomings, Coastlines offers a compelling visual style and a solid portrayal of underworld dynamics, offering a respectable addition to the genre for fans of moody crime dramas.
