Movie Reviews

Windy City Times - 9/10 by Richard KnightThe filmmakers do a good job of humanizing their conservative subjects but eventually the rigid mindset of these folks cancels out any common bond liberals might feel.
Combustible Celluloid - 8/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonWhat's really special about the film is that Winston and Cohen manage to make real characters out of these folks.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Walter V. AddiegoIt's finally a very sad movie, because it speaks to the profound depths of the political division in this country.
eFilmCritic.com - 7/10 by Dan LybargerChicago-based documentarian Joe Winston makes a valiant effort to make Frank's perspectives work on screen.
Kansas City Star - 7/10 by Robert W. ButlerEven-handedness is the film's strength and, paradoxically, its weakness.
Village Voice - 6/10 by Michael FoxParadoxically, the movie feels dated in the sense that it pre-dates both the recession and Obama's campaign, yet prescient in illuminating a crisis that plagues us today.
NYC Movie Guru - 5/10 by Avi OfferUnfocused, dry and boring. It's a squandered opportunity to extensively and compellingly tackle provocative political, social and moral issues plaguing America.
New York Times - 5/10 by Andy WebsterThe specific roots of a pervasive sense of disenfranchisement are barely described, as are strategies for liberals seeking to reclaim the state. What's the Matter With Kansas? depicts a groundswell of anger but largely ignores the external forces that helped shape it.
Washington Post - 5/10 by Ann HornadayFunny? Scary? Entirely logical? It all depends on your point of view, of course, and "What's the Matter With Kansas?" isn't likely to move viewers one way or another.
New York Post - 3/10 by Kyle SmithIt's condescending, it's vague, it's unfair and, ultimately, it's pointless.
