Reviews

Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
mraculeated The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
