Couple meet by chance, they talk, go to the park, visit friends, go to an art gallery and then a party. That's all there is to it, plenty of dialogue which keeps the interest as does the interaction of the leads though it still feels forced and not so natural. This may be down to... read more
This movie will not be appreciated by everyone, and I'm not even sure that I appreciated it. Quiet City isn't really about anything, it's just a 78 minute look into a weekend in the lives of 2 twentysomethings in New York. They hang out, go to a friend's house, hang out, go to ... read more
follow any trendy hipster jerk around the city and this film could have been made 10 times over. no plot, no storyline, no character development. No recommendation.
Pretentious hipster crap. Nicely shot, but no real plot here. Just some transplanted Brooklyn hipsters being cool. Whatever dude. Get a job. And a haircut.

Quiet City often attains a floating, poetic buoyancy that pulls a fast one on gravity. Full Review
It's a wonderfully goofy movie that was a fun watch. Full Review
Quiet City may be modest in budget and muted in its ambitions, but for anyone who imagines that truly independent American cinema is dead, this most chaste of romances is a quiet film worth shouting a... Full Review
Quiet City is a slight film, but it's so pure and precise and honest that it takes on stature beyond its actual size. As a work of art, it makes a big noise indeed. Full Review
In place of Before Sunrise's verbal fireworks, the aptly named Quiet City offers something more like linguistic sparklers -- modest, yes, but charming all the same. Full Review
