Movie Reviews

Village Voice - 9/10 by Aaron HillisCriticism mutated long ago, after the internet's floodgates opened, and that outmoded disconnect between The Film Critic and today's film critics underscores how the persistent references to cinema and film writing are self-awarely mimicking clichés but not subverting them.
Critical Women - 8/10 by Prairie MillerMove over Scientology. While veiled threats to critics if daring to approve the damning doc Going Clear were mere idle tongue wagging, The Film Critic may be another matter. And if a warning to critics to beware, let for a change you the reader decide.
NPR - 8/10 by Bob MondelloA gentle wake-up call for reviewers who see themselves as movie gatekeepers rather than movie analysts.
Seattle Times - 8/10 by Tom KeoghA Möbius strip, a seductive surface where reality and cinema twist into one.
HeraldNet (Everett, WA) - 8/10 by Robert HortonThe movie's best at wry humor, especially in the way Victor wrests control of the picture back to his own taste (the ending of The Film Critic is the sort he prefers).
RogerEbert.com - 6/10 by Sheila O'MalleyThe Film Critic takes a light and knowing tone, spoofing the sacred cows of the critic world, and cramming every scene with visual film clichés that act like a "Where's Waldo?" of cinema.
Los Angeles Times - 6/10 by Gary GoldsteinAlthough the meta-style conceit is fun, it doesn't fully kick in until the film's midpoint. Until then it's a sluggish, fairly dour ride.
Paste Magazine - 6/10 by Brent SimonLacking more defined instincts for either comedy or drama, The Film Critic exists in a muddled, mushy middle ground.
Hollywood Reporter - 5/10 by Jonathan HollandAs the film's heart, the bearded, bearlike Spregelburd delivers a quiet, unemphatic performance, at its best when at its clumsiest and most stone-faced, magnificently tragic and hilarious for one brief, complex moment.
Chicago Reader - 4/10 by Ben SachsAs in much recent South American art cinema, the depictions of working life are vivid and relatable, throwing the more fantastic ideas into sharp relief.
