After twenty-eight long days of absence, Sin-Dee is back on the block. It's Christmastime, and everyone wants to get into the festive spirit; however, Sin-Dee is in for a shock when she accidentally discovers that Chester, the love of her life, has been cheating on her. And to think that poor Sin-Dee has been making plans for the future. To save what's left of her dignity, heartbroken Sin-Dee embarks on a desperate mission to locate two-timing Chester, and no one can stop her--not even her best friend Alexandra, who vainly tries to be the voice of reason. Now, nothing can stand in the way of justice. After all, who wants to live a lie?
Leave your thoughts about Tangerine.
| NewcityRay PrideA brash, vivacious screwball comedy of West Hollywood street life, told in the course of several blocks across several hours as Christmas Eve moves from day to dusk to dark of night and ache of heart. |
| The NationStuart KlawansI don't know whether a real-life Sin-Dee and Alexandra would approve of the way they're presented in Tangerine. But I think they might appreciate the dignity these characters award themselves and the ambiguity they're sometimes allowed. |
| Daily Telegraph (UK)Robbie CollinIt radiates a candour, immediacy and tongue-scalding sex appeal that a bigger budget would have only smothered. |
| San Francisco ChronicleDavid LewisThis is sublime filmmaking, a textbook example of how indies can tell groundbreaking stories in a way that Hollywood simply can’t match. |
| The New York TimesManohla DargisTangerine encompasses dizzying multitudes — it’s a neo-screwball chase flick with a dash of Rainer Werner Fassbinder — but mostly, movingly, it is a female-friendship movie about two people who each started life with an XY chromosome set. |
| El UniversalAlonso Díaz de la VegaTangerine is a deliberately ugly film about ugly people, but that is used to give place to the human side of these characters. [Full review in Spanish] |
| Time OutDavid EhrlichA saturated picture that courses with the raw energy of found footage while still feeling artfully composed, a movie that punches with the skittering violence of dubstep but careens through L.A. with the unbridled freedom of bebop jazz. |
| The ListNikki BaughanBombastic, organic and utterly original, Tangerine is not just a film, it's a vital, visceral experience. |
| Paste MagazineAndy CrumpTangerine is lurid, ribald and sleazy in the most complimentary ways possible, because it's suffused with rich empathy. |
| Portland MercuryAndrew WrightConjures up a world where an illegal business transaction in a carwash can somehow come off as silly, raw, and touching all at once. After the credits roll, the dizzy crackle remains. |
