| Los Angeles TimesMartin TsaiAlthough Beef and Conan are far from stereotypical, the quirkiness and eccentricities ascribed to them by writer-director Kenny Riches harp on their otherness all the same. |
| The PlaylistKevin JagernauthThe Strongest Man isn't flashy, moves to it's own unique rhythms, and glides along with a very specific sense of humor. But to the observant eye, and patient viewer who decides to hop along with the film's welcoming tone, they'll witness the voice of a filmmaker bursting with ideas and a number of ways to share them, even if he hasn't quite found his storytelling footing just yet. |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Josh TerryIt's definitely an acquired taste, but it's most helpful to view the film as a fairy tale. |
| Salt Lake City WeeklyScott RenshawIt's uneven, goofy and personal, in all the ways that independent comedy can be both delightful and occasionally befuddling. |
| Hollywood ReporterBoyd van HoeijThis is the kind of indie doodle of a movie in which several potentially interesting ideas co-exist but never quite come together and where supporters will call the narrative "freewheeling" while naysayers will insist on "rambling." |
| VarietyDennis HarveyThinly amusing, The Strongest Man stretches a short’s worth of potentially funny ideas to feature length, where they slowly and surely lead nowhere in particular. |
| User ReviewBrookElisonThe Strongest Man is an excellent indie film from a very talented group of indie-film people. Writer and Director Kenny Riches hits all the right notes in this fresh, breezy story of a young, mustachioed man named Beef who is compelled to search for his prized stolen BMX bike. While working alongside his best friend Conan in Miami, he converses and dreams, occasionally and casually displaying feats of great strength. He really likes a pretty young woman named Illi, and perhaps she likes him, too. See this film. I cannot imagine why someone would pan this wonderful film. I saw it at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival and I immediately fell in love with it. Oh, and bonus! Patrick Fugit is in it! And his character is brilliant. The soundtrack is especially apt and the film is shot and edited impeccably well. Kenny Riches is one to watch because he's going to make some great films, and The Strongest Man is an impressive start. See it. |
