3/5
A quirky, eccentric film in some ways, but one that achieves its own kind of internal consistency, with very strong performances from Jones and Guillory as the haunted mother and daughter. Go to Full Review Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall 11/20/2020

Dark and unnervingly intense from the opening shot, this slow-burn drama churns with emotion. Go to Full Review Lucy Buglass Love Horror 11/14/2020

Overall, Nuclear had some real potential but sadly failed to hold my attention for the majority of the film. Go to Full Review Niall Browne Movies in Focus 11/08/2020

Catherine Linstrum's Nuclear is a small scale dramatic thriller which radiates because of strong performances from Emilia Jones and George MacKay. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Aluna U @RT14704568 Sep 24 Nuclear opens with a mysterious and intriguing setup, but diverges into a slow-paced melancholic drama that leaves its title largely unfulfilled. While the performances and music are commendable, the lack of character depth, unexplained plot points, and minimal conflict distance viewers from the emotional core. Despite a few surprising plot twists, the film ultimately leaves more questions than answers, failing to fully deliver on its psychological or supernatural potential.
