Movie Reviews

Shadows on the Wall - 8/10 by Rich ClineMhis offbeat drama marches to such a fiercely original beat that it can't be ignored
Urban Cinefile - 4/10 by Louise KellerAn unforgettable and haunting film about longing and loss, Salmonberries has a visceral energy that is as powerful as its isolated snowy Alaskan locations. The icing on the cake is an evocative soundtrack ..
User Review - 8/10 by Tui SI first watched this movie when i found out k.d lang starred in it and this movie made me feel different to what other movies made me feel.
User Review - 6/10 by John BOne of those love-it-as-art or hate-it-as-pretension films. Which probably means it should be understood as sitting between those two extremes.
User Review - 6/10 by Ryan TVery interesting story; this really seems to be more of a stage play adapted for a movie rather than a movie itself. And I'm not quite so sure of the acting abilities of K.D. Lang, though she can be charming through the gritty character she plays. A bit disappointing for a Percy Adlon picture following his Bagdad Cafe, not sure what happened here. At the same time, the story does have its merit, set in a rather exotic/mysterious place, in which everyone has to push beyond the barriers of gender, orientation, ethnicity, among other issues.
User Review - 4/10 by Nick TGood in that it sticks with you but it stuck with me in a bad way. Good acting - and for once it's a film that takes place in Alaska that was actually FILMED here. I just didn't like the story so much.
User Review - 2/10 by Aaron GWHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congradualation movie, you succeeded to make me as angry as ever about a movie. Really there is no excuse for this boring, unintresting, boring piece of crap. I get what message its trying to get at but it ends up with a series of pointless scenes oh and the main character in this is so stupid and not likable. So please do not watch this movie its just terrible!
User Review - 2/10 by Private UI don't really have anything positive to say about this movie, so I will just leave it at that.
