HARDCORE HENRY

“…the film is pure fun enlivened by — rather than dominated by — inventive chaos.” – Kilian Melloy, Edge Boston

“Luckily though, the movie is committed to its own crazed insanity that it actually becomes kind of admirable.” – Sam Cohen, Under the Gun Review

“The most interesting part of HARDCORE HENRY is the level of violence that’s being displayed.” – Jaskee Hickman, Cinematic Essential

“HARDCORE HENRY just wants to dazzle us with conceit, and your mileage will vary based on your capacity for tolerating Naishuller’s gimmickry.” – Andy Crump, A Constant Visual Feast

“…an atonal mess, with a few respectable laughs mixed in.” – Deirdre Crimmins, Cinematic Essential

 

 

MTM3NzMzMjY0MjI2OTg1NjMxTHE INVITATION

“THE INVITATION’s constructed world is as constricting as its closed-door setting. Maybe that’s why nobody thought to leave.” – Jake Mulligan, Dig Boston

“We feel like we’re intruding on the melancholic privacies of Kusama’s characters, and yet she locks the doors and keeps us trapped inside with them.” – Andy Crump, Paste Magazine

 

 

april-720x389APRIL AND THE EXTRAORDINARY WORLD

“The true magic to APRIL AND THE EXTRAORDINARY WORLD is that it has an endgame worthy of its ambition.” – Norm Schrager, Film Racket

“…a beautiful film that reminds us of the aesthetic value of traditional animation and the necessity of human ingenuity, all without treating its audience like idiots. ” – Andy Crump, Paste Magazine
