Movie Reviews

Screen International - 9/10 by Mark AdamsMushrooms, food and romance collide in Jason Cortlund and Julia Halperin's modestly charming indie debut.
Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertNow, Forager is a uncompromising film about two people who don't deserve each other - but maybe nobody deserves either one of them.
Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Robert AbeleDespite an awkwardly jokey title, Now, Forager has charm, intelligence and a cool passion for its principled characters - an appealing off-menu slice for hungry indie admirers.
Oregonian - 6/10 by Marc MohanDespite its punning title, this is an earnest, absorbing drama set at the intersection of countercultural idealism and gastronomical sophistication.
The New York Times - 5/10 by Nicolas RapoldThis uneven, slow-brewed film begins by observing a brittle relationship about to crumble, but it is better at portraying how the exacting standards of food professionals can lead to personal grief.
Slant Magazine - 5/10 by Nick SchagerBoasts an evocative sense of environment and the feel of working with one's hands, but otherwise rummages around in search of substance and subtlety.
Village Voice - 4/10 by Jonathan KieferA slow-food procedural, commendably devoted yet still underdone.
Time Out - 4/10 by David FearThe novelty of their industry aside, there's little to differentiate this from any other relationship-centered Amerindie.
User Review - 10/10 by Dan HI don't know why this film has such a low RT score. I just saw it last week and loved it. It's more of an art film along the lines of Robert Bresson's DIARY OF A COUNTRY PRIEST or Krzysztof Zanussi's STRUCTURE OF CRYSTALS--or Bob Rafelson's FIVE EASY PIECES--than anything else. It's certainly not a twee little film about self-congratulatory Foodies preaching the virtues of organics. It's actually a very smart, dark thought-provoking film about alienation and male melancholy that stays with you.
User Review - 4/10 by Janosh HWhat happened to those mushroom bandits? Can we get a movie about them?
