The movie seems lost in its own haze of ethereal confusion.

There's a grating fairy tale vibe to the film, especially when Ollie and Nikolai's motivations are narrated through an almost "once upon a time" tone.

Rating: C- --
In short, it's a mess -- an often lovely, atmospheric throwback with some clear personal flourishes, but a mess nonetheless.

A clunky, lurching affair populated by barely sketched individuals who seem to be competing for a most-intolerable prize...

"The Song of Sway Lake" is full of good ideas that never quite coalesce into an actual movie.

Rating: 2/4 --
The attractiveness of the scenery, and a quiet, dignified performance by Ms. Peña in what could now be her last movie appearance, wind up being the main redeeming values here.

Filmmaker Gold might have been better off keeping a tight focus on the sparring interchanges between Ollie and his grandmother, for what they tell us about past and present.

Description by OLDIES.com:
It's summer on Sway Lake, former playground of the jazz-age New York aristocracy. Young music collector Ollie Sway (Rory Culkin) recruits his only friend, a rowdy Russian drifter (Robert Sheehan), to help him steal a one-of-a-kind vintage record from his own family's lake house. Ollie believes that possessing the secret recording of the WW2-era hit "Sway Lake" will magically boost his confidence with women - and redeem his father, who committed suicide on the lake.
