Critics Consensus: By the Sea may intrigue celebrity voyeurs or fans of a certain type of arthouse cinema, but for most viewers, its beauty won't be enough to offset its narrative inertia.

Reviews

This movie was terrible.

Rotten

This movie felt like it was three days long... It just felt like an eternity.

Rotten

By the Sea is a series of nice visuals and pleasant costumes. Which is frustrating as there is an interesting kernel of an idea here, especially when combined with the lead cast.

About the technical level there is nothing bad to say, the film is quite stimulating in terms of video and audio. [Full Review in Spanish]

Rotten

By the Sea is a hard watch in a lot of ways, not because the subject matter is difficult to watch unfold, but because the slow-going plot and sparsely-used dialogue will make you impatiently awaiting the end.
