Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good
BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See
Ortiz Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
