Movie Reviews

New York Observer - 10/10 by Rex ReedGripping, intense and profoundly unsettling, House of Sand and Fog deserves a prime spot at the top of everybody's must-see list.
Time - 10/10 by Richard SchickelAs reversible misunderstandings grow into irreversible tragedy, it slowly dawns on you that this is a superior, heartbreaking film.
Los Angeles Times - 10/10 by Kenneth TuranIts step-by-step tragedy is so ruthless in its unfolding, you may find yourself wishing it were less well done, that it left you some room to breathe. But House of Sand and Fog has a story to tell and it means to tell it, no matter what the cost.
Chicago Sun-Times - 10/10 by Roger EbertIt stands with integrity and breaks our hearts.
Broomfield Enterprise - 10/10 by Dan Marcucci and Nancy SerougiAll of a sudden, House of Sand and Fog turned into one of the saddest flicks I've seen in a long time with an extremely powerful performance by Ben Kingsley.
San Diego Union-Tribune - 10/10 by David ElliottKingsley's performance nearly redeems a rather jacked-up finish, and Connelly makes genuine her pathetic character.
San Jose Mercury News - 10/10 by Glenn LovellIn the current political climate, it's required viewing. We all need to think about tolerance and how, like sand, it can slip through our fingers.
ReelTalk Movie Reviews - 10/10 by John P. McCarthyThe film's stark edifice is buttressed by sublime performances from Ben Kingsley and Jennifer Connelly.
Internet Reviews - 10/10 by Steve RhodesIt is easily one of the very best films of this or any year.
USA Today - 9/10 by Claudia PuigThe clash over the house quickly escalates into a modern-day tragedy. It is a fascinating film, handsomely adapted from the book and well directed.
