Movie Reviews

Time Out - 10/10 by Kevin B. LeeJersey Shore may be the hyped example of trashy onscreen “reality,” but this portrait of an upstate working-poor family forsakes guilty-pleasure exploitation and simply wows you in every other way.
About.com - 10/10 by Jennifer MerinOctober Country is an intimate true life family drama that quietly delivers the psychological impact of a classic Gothic tale. It grabs you at the beginning, won't let go until the end, and leaves you with haunting images.
NYC Movie Guru - 10/10 by Avi OfferAn enlightening, well-edited, haunting, thoroughly compelling and unflinchingly honest documentary that's essential viewing for every family, whether dysfunctional or not.
New York Times - 10/10 by A.O. ScottOctober Country feels at once personal and objective, a fascinating hybrid of two important tendencies in the modern documentary.
Combustible Celluloid - 9/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonIf you give October Country enough of a shot, it becomes crystal clear that filmmakers Michael Palmieri and Donal Mosher care about their subjects.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Walter V. AddiegoYou can probably extract a sociological or political message from the film, but I don't think that was the intention. This lack of an agenda seems to add to the movie's intensity.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Michael O'SullivanA powerful portrait of the American working poor and the dynamics that govern all families, regardless of economic class.
Oregonian - 8/10 by Marc MohanManages to excavate enough universal pathos from the mundane to find something truly extraordinary in the ordinary.
NYC Film Critic - 8/10 by Ethan AlterUltimately, it's the Mosher clan's resilience and lack of self-pity that keeps October Country from coming across as a case of pure exploitation.
Village Voice - 8/10 by Karina LongworthBest understood as a work of creative nonfiction. The directors employ art-film techniques to aestheticize a swamp of big issues--the military, poverty, madness, family planning, spousal and child abuse--and give a family's (and America's) angst a clear voice and seductive form without leveling judgment.
