Movie Reviews

NOW Toronto - 10/10 by Radheyan SimonpillaiWho's the street artist behind these tiles? More importantly, who cares?
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - 10/10 by Jennie PunterWhat elevates Foy's impressive first feature (he also served as editor and composer of the dark, whimsical score) above, say, your average "unsolved mystery" TV episode, is the emotional connection he gradually builds between Duerr and the elusive creator of the Toynbee tiles.
Jam! Movies - 10/10 by Liz BraunIf you know nothing about the tiles, the film might play like an urban mini-thriller. It's never entirely satisfying, however, and the filmmakers seem to run out of steam before their story is told.
AV Club - 9/10 by Alison WillmoreIt's a ride worth more for its journey than its destination. Resurrect Dead does offer a convincing but anticlimactic "solution" to the Toynbee tiles, but the elements along the way are what make it an engaging film.
Toronto Star - 8/10 by Peter HowellFilmmaker Jon Foy sets it to a thriller's pace, even contributing his own fateful score.
Village Voice - 8/10 by Eric HynesResurrect Dead works splendidly as a threadbare urban mystery, teasing out details and complications without withholding too much information.
The Washingtonian - 8/10 by Ian BuckwalterDetective documentaries, those that themselves attempt to unlock mysteries or follow subjects who do, can be some of the most satisfying to watch, and Resurrect Dead is no exception.
Boxoffice Magazine - 8/10 by Steve RamosWhat Foy and his team discover is unbelievable. More importantly, their adventures will prove popular with street art buffs as well as documentary fans.
Playback:stl - 6/10 by Sarah Boslaugh...a skillful yet fairly ordinary festival film that tells a moderately intriguing story ...
New York Times - 6/10 by Andy WebsterThough their quarry eventually appears to be a model of paranoia and prejudice, it's the thrill of the hunt that keeps Resurrect Dead compelling.
