Movie Reviews

Salon.com - 10/10 by Stephanie ZacharekThe sight of Hedwig and his band transforming a trashy trailer into a glitter-rock stage during "Wig in a Box" was so exhilarating I almost leapt out of my seat. The movie is pure theater, as it should be.
Portland Oregonian - 10/10 by Kim MorganBuilds into a moment of such gorgeous rocking that you truly lose yourself in some musical otherworld you never dreamed you'd reach in current films.
Wall Street Journal - 10/10 by Ed EpsteinMitchell directs and stars in the riotous, loving, and only occasionally pathos-milking film adaptation of his own acclaimed Off Broadway play, with great up-your-ante music and lyrics by Stephen Trask.
Washington Post - 10/10 by Desson ThomsonThe film's not only funny and weird, it's oddly poignant. I miss Hedwig already.
The Film Yap - 10/10 by Nick RogersA ball of gender confusion, Biblical allegories and Eastern European politics -one of those would be a tricky subtext for a 90-minute rock opera. But the songs marry Jim Steinman's grandeur to the Stooges' sweat and spit, with a deft, tender screenplay.
Los Angeles Times - 10/10 by Kevin ThomasOn the screen, the rip-roaring rock musical Hedwig and the Angry Inch retains all the excitement and energy it had on stage while adding depth, clarity and emotional texture.
Washington Post - 10/10 by Stephen HunterThe story is told so passionately that it demands as much of you as it does of its performers, all of whom are up there, giving everything.
Cinemaphile.org - 10/10 by David KeyesMost movie musicals often use songs to create an exaggerated exterior of polished images, but here is one that uses them to reveal honesty that seems too painful to explain in mere conversation.
Film Journal International - 10/10 by David NohFunnier, as well as more emotionally stirring than it was onstage.
New York Post - 10/10 by Lou LumenickA gender-bending rock musical that really delivers.
