Ecstatic ritual, danger and the absolute beauty of fireworks.
Leave your thoughts about Brimstone & Glory.
| Stuff.co.nzGraeme TuckettThis is a dizzying, beautiful, awe-inspiring and deeply wonderful film. |
| Winnipeg Free PressJill WilsonThe cinematography - some by drones, some created with a Phantom High Speed Camera - is astonishing, giving us hypnotic slow-motion views of incendiary devices exploding and glorious nighttime scenes of dancers stamping. |
| The Stranger (Seattle, WA)Charles MudedeThe film is, of course, stunning and poetic. That is a given because fireworks, like movies, are above all about impressing the eyes. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonCaptures the thrill, the joy, the wonder of looking up into the night sky and seeing something uniting, something bigger than all of us. |
| New York Magazine (Vulture)Emily YoshidaBrimstone & Glory, in a lean 67 minutes of cinematic poetry, bears that love out in dizzying extremes. |
| RogerEbert.comGlenn KennyThe mode of this short movie is naturalistic. There are interviews of people in voiceover, but not a lot of talking-head footage. The perspective is of an observer sauntering through the town and then thrust into the middle of a fearsome but exhilarating spectacle. |
| IndiewireDavid EhrlichStructured like a fireworks display, with only a handful of small reprieves throughout, Brimstone & Glory naturally builds to a marvelous grand finale. |
| Denerstein UnleashedRobert DenersteinThe fireworks we see are amazing, and Jakovleski leaves it to us to decide what to make of this town's obsession with lighting up the sky. |
| 4:3Nicholas GodfreyThe film's visual style emphasises the transcendent spectacle... |
| ThrillistChristopher CampbellA mesmerizing and enchanting vérité achievement. |
