'The camera work was seamless with some beautiful shots, and the use of the mirror created a seemingly endless image of beauty. The script was clever, clean and I'm sure will resonate with most.' - Planet Nation - https://www.planet-nation.com/lifestyle/film-reviews/review-wishin-and-hopin-and-interview-director

'Humorous twist on an old classic... the story fits the film's length perfectly... focuses on what a short film does best - giving a quick insight into a character's life.’ - London Feminist Film Festival - https://londonfeministfilmfestival.com/2018/04/07/bfi-flare-reviews/
