Jourdain Searles The Hollywood Reporter 4d
Rock Springs is a big swing from Miao that pays off in the end, blending drama, horror and ugly American history to create a truly heartbreaking and hopefully healing experience. Go to Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com Feb 2
The two halves of this film never cohere into a satisfying whole as Vera Miao can’t figure out how to make us interested in this traumatized family that’s never developed into something that feels three-dimensional. Go to Full Review Guy Lodge Variety Jan 26
Miao has a brisk, tingling command of atmosphere, and if she occasionally seems still in search of a style all her own, this promising debut has a human touch and point of view that are rather more distinctive within the genre. Go to Full Review Lyra Hale Fangirlish 18h

Rock Springs elevates the monster horror genre with a gut wrenching tale about the untold history of a community of immigrants. And it’s the kind of horror that I wish Hollywood would invest more time in. Go to Full Review Martin Tsai ScreenAnarchy 1d
The film's ambitions -- historical reckoning, diasporic meditation, ghost story -- remain partially disentangled from one another. Go to Full Review Grant Hermanns Screen Rant 5d
6/10
Rock Springs is an unfortunate mixed bag... The themes she highlights are relevant and admirable, and she has a great cast, but in failing to make a cohesive whole of her different halves, it's hard to invest in her tackling of generational trauma. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
