The Stranger (Seattle, WA)

Charles Mudede

What's the problem? There are so many. For example: The film doesn't at all explain how or why the fish population was depleted or where all of the machine guns are coming from...

Fishing Without Nets provides a thorough examination at the motives of those involved, particularly the group's internal conflicts.

Do we really need another Somali pirates movie after Paul Greengrass's superb Captain Phillips? Turns out we do, and Cutter Hodierne's directorial debut Fishing Without Nets almost fits the bill.

Minneapolis Star Tribune

Kristin Tillotson

A revealing, moving feature.

Hodierne allows space for the tension to build, and the result is almost sickeningly suspenseful.
