Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 4/5 --
As in Todd Haynes's 1995 masterpiece, Safe, we are in a world that can't be pinned down.
London Evening Standard
4 stars out of 4 -- Taut, unsettling, haunting and powerful, TAKE SHELTER stars Michael Shannon in a shattering performance as a man caught up in forces beyond his control.
Washington Post
A hallucinatory thriller anchored by a deeply resonant sense of unease.

Financial Times
Rating: 4/5 --
Despite a bungled finish, with Take Shelter Nichols has succeeded in creating one of the most engaging American responses to the global economic crisis.

CineVue
In my estimate, this unique and frequently arresting film suffers from the monotony of the lead players' affect, and from the film's urge to have its gloomy cake and eat it.

4 stars out of 4 -- Here is a frightening thriller based not on special effects gimmicks but on a dread that seems quietly spreading in the land...

Product Description:
An Ohio family man experiences a series of disturbing visions that gradually begin to weigh on his marriage and community when he begins obsessively constructing a heavily fortified storm shelter. Curtis LaForche (Michael Shannon) has a good life. He lives in a beautiful house with his loving wife, Samantha (Jessica Chastain), and their deaf six-year-old daughter, Hannah (Tova Stewart), but begins to sense that something ominous is on the horizon when the dark clouds of swelling storms begin invading his dreams. Taciturn, Curtis refuses to discuss the dreams with anyone, but feels compelled to dig out a massive storm shelter with the help of a good friend (Shea Whigham). Meanwhile, as Samantha grows increasingly concerned with Curtis' erratic behavior, the local rumor mill begins to churn. Are Curtis' dreams a prophetic omen of things to come, or is he perhaps headed down the same dark road as his mother, who was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia when she was approximately the same age that he is now'
