With her first feature-length documentary Over the Limit, Polish writer-director Marta Prus does for rhythmic gymnastics what Damien Chazelle did for drumming in Whiplash. - Neil Young, The Hollywood Reporter
[A] darkly dazzling achievement. The tight, tense result surely ranks among the great modern sports docs. - Guy Lodge, Variety
...thoroughly engaging, an intense and emotional look at one athlete's relationship to her sport. - Pat Brown, Slant Magazine
...harrowing and thoroughly captivating. --Ben Croll, Screen Daily
Rather than shape an angry exposé, Prus, herself a former gymnast, recognizes and embraces the Cinderella-like appeal of Mamun's punishing journey. - Jeannette Catsoulis, The New York Times (Critic's Pick)
Over the Limit is a film about passion and art. It is a film about what drives us, beyond logic and comfort. - Chelsea Phillips-Carr, POV Magazine
Margarita Mamun's road to the Olympic gold medal is portrayed in a stunningly, exquisitely beautiful way that celebrates one of the most unlikely heroines of the sport. The film creates 74 minutes of gripping drama it is probably only one slice of the truth (though honestly, who d be interested in watching trainings where everything is smooth?), but it's one of the most important works portraying RG. --Gergely Marosi, Rhythmic Gymnastics
