Movie Reviews

Oregonian - 9/10 by Marc MohanThe potential for an interesting story is high. Unfortunately, Miller's autobiographical tale, as told in Blue Like Jazz, squanders this potential by failing to take place in a recognizably real world.
Filmwell - 8/10 by Jeffrey Overstreet[It] playfully serves up more food for thought than most comedies we've seen so far this decade.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by David LewisTaylor's film is never boring, and it has some beautiful, thought-provoking moments. In a genre in which preaching to the choir seems to be the norm, this film is a welcome entry.
RedEye - 8/10 by Matt PaisDoesn't forget to be entertaining or ask questions, rather than walloping an already converted audience with a hammer of propaganda.
Compuserve - 8/10 by Harvey S. KartenDeeply religious lad attends party-loving secular college with intriguing, mixed results
CultureCatch - 8/10 by Brandon JudellLost in a "sea of individuality," the hero evolves, devolves, and is born again. It's a painless, not highly memorable journey that is tailor-made for Young Christian discussion groups -- and that is not bad in itself.
Q Network Film Desk - 8/10 by James Kendrickdares to confront its audience, both secular and religious, by honestly dealing with the complexities of religion, politics, and personal identity
AV Club - 7/10 by Nathan RabinFor all its low-key charms, the coming-of-age story risks being too Christian for secular audiences and too secular and colorful for Christian audiences: Like its spiritual seeker of a protagonist, it's caught between worlds.
Film.com - 7/10 by Eric D. SniderThe film's heart is in the right place; it just can't make the rest of its parts function smoothly.
One Guy's Opinion - 7/10 by Frank SwietekWhile one can applaud the desire to offer something less heavy-handed and preachy than the overtly Christian movies that have found their way to theatres in recent years, 'Blue' is too mild and muddled to carry off what it aims for.
