Movie Reviews

TV Guide - 8/10 by Maitland McDonaghThe film's climax, which cuts back and forth between the 16-year-old Dongo (Silas Radies, whose younger brother plays Dongo as a ten year old) making his dangerous debut with the fly-by-night Aurora Circus and the 2002 competition that takes him back to Hungary for the first time in years is nothing short of riveting.
New York Times - 8/10 by Matt Zoller SeitzThe term "sports film" doesn't do justice to the director Szabolcs Hajdu's movie White Palms, a punishing, beautiful drama.
Time Out - 5/10 by Melissa AndersonFar from the uplifting sports pictures churned out by Disney, White Palms wallows instead in humiliation rituals, psychic scars and too much time-shifting.
User Review - 10/10 by Kasia KOMG!!! I luved this movie. it was amazing! the radies brothers r just sooo cute!!!!
User Review - 8/10 by Canem CVery catchy true story of a Hungarian gymnast.
User Review - 8/10 by Deweight J'Babel' - a masterpiece! Moving, amazing, so powerful! I love it! 'Grbavica' - great, moving drama. Recommended! (Oscar nommination please) 'Little Miss Sunshine' - I love it. So heart-warming and intelligent! The best funny-drama since 'Garden State'. 'Requiem' - far far better then 'Exorcism of Emily Rose' - more mature and realistic interpretation of those events. 'White palms' - so real, so strong, so emotional. Well-directed and intelligent sport-drama.
User Review - 6/10 by Marta KEuropean films just have their own unique color palette. I love the cinematography and art direction ( at least during the childhood segment). The sparse soundtrack and close-ups achieve to bring out the lost childhood that dongo goes through. It makes his achievement in the end all the more rewarding. At some points the movie reminds me of a nightmare..not a bad one but one we cant help revisiting.
User Review - 6/10 by Private UBy no means perfect, but found it a thoroughly absorbing insight into the gymnastics world - both contemporary western and old-school Eastern bloc. Some very nice hairy-chested totty and a chastening demonstration of what great physical shape a man can be in at circa 40.
User Review - 6/10 by Virag VInteresting story and a breathtaking end but the camera moving got my eyes tired...
