Movie Reviews

St. Paul Pioneer Press - 10/10 by Chris HewittOne of those movies that Tells Us What Is Wrong With America, and is it just me who doesn't think we need to be lectured by bad movies?
Christian Science Monitor - 10/10 by David SterrittAt once dreamily surreal, acutely intelligent, and strikingly tough-minded, this pitch-dark dramatic comedy recalls David Lynch and "Donnie Darko" while remaining fresh and original to its core. A stunning directorial debut.
Orlando Sentinel - 9/10 by Roger MooreIt's neither funny nor sad, and it's filled with cheats, phony come-ons and red herrings.
One Guy's Opinion - 9/10 by Frank SwietekA movie that wants to be daring but winds up feeling prefabricated.
Ain't It Cool Movie Reviews - 8/10 by Moriarty... even if it's not quite perfect, it's reaching for greatness, and it wants to be profound, and in some ways, that's enough.
Portland Oregonian - 8/10 by Shawn LevyA frustrating combination of inspiration and routine, acuity and dullness, originality and fashion. Part web-of-life indie film, part troubled teen drama, part suburban satire, part comic book fantasy, it vacillates between the engaging and the silly, buoyed by energetic performances but pulled underwater by self-satisfied writing and direction.
FilmJerk.com - 8/10 by Brian OrndorfThe finished film can't keep up with its ambitions, concluding with an all-too-easy act of violence to keep the audience invested.
Blunt Review - 8/10 by Emily BluntThere's something up in Suburbia, if anyone cares to notice...Been there, done that, but, the actors make this a great film
Los Angeles Daily News - 8/10 by Bob StraussIt's a visually impressive but emotionally tin-eared trawl over that oft-scraped indie film territory, the soulless suburban landscape.
AV Club - 8/10 by Keith PhippsThe story of the film: Studio money chasing after the cult-film audience and getting all the superficial elements right while missing the spirit entirely. It's the cinematic equivalent of Candlebox.
