Movie Reviews

St. Louis Post-Dispatch - 8/10 by Joe WilliamsThis stylish film reminds us that great images endure after bodies and buildings crumble.
Philadelphia Inquirer - 8/10 by Carrie RickeyShulman photographed buildings as if they were movie stars: He found their best angles and immortalized them.
Austin Chronicle - 8/10 by Marjorie BaumgartenAssociated with the modernist architectural movement centered in Southern California during the mid-20th century, Shulman’s still photographs are essential to any study of the style’s vast popularization and commercialism.
The Hollywood Reporter - 8/10 by Kirk HoneycuttA really terrific, intensely focused documentary on a fascinating personality.
Christian Science Monitor - 8/10 by Peter RainerShulman was around so long that he even got to weigh in on Frank Gehry's Disney Hall. He was skeptical once but came to love it.
Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Kenneth TuranNominally about the life and career of landmark Southern California architectural photographer Julius Shulman, but it's more about the buildings he photographed than it is about him. Which is probably the way he'd like it.
The New York Times - 7/10 by Andy WebsterIt’s about lovely photographs of graceful buildings and those who can afford the real estate. But it does pay proper respect to a deserving artist.
Village Voice - 7/10 by Ella TaylorEnjoyable as it is, Bricker's giddy hagiography could have used a little pushback, especially in the matter of Shulman's airy dismissal of the postmodernism that, he claimed, forced him into "retirement."
Time Out - 6/10 by Keith UhlichVisual Acoustics goes out of its way to remain as kindly and pleasing as Shulman himself.
Boston Globe - 5/10 by Ty BurrEssential viewing for builders, graphic designers, visual artists, and other optically inclined folk, but it’s a bit of a slog for the uninitiated.
