“As far as dumb action movies go, this is a great-looking one, but it should have been so much more.” – Sean Burns, North Shore Movies

“Sadly, besides a few memorable scenes and the visual/score matchup to be nothing short of brilliant, I was underwhelmed and bored by the once manga masterpiece.” – Nick Casaletto, We Live Entertainment

“It should engage the youngsters but will leave more sophisticated viewers–say, those older than eight or nine–wanting something with more substance…” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies

“In the end, what lingers most about THE BLACKCOAT’S DAUGHTER is a sunken feeling in the pit of your stomach that everything is *not* going to be okay.” – Sean Burns, Spliced Personality

A NOTE FROM BOFCA:

The advent of a new year brings with it many changes, and The Boston Online Film Critics Association is no exception to this. BOFCA would like to officially welcome Max Covill and Sam Cohen as the newest members of our fine organization. You’ll now find their reviews, writings and other offerings right here on this site.

In addition, BOFCA also extends its gratitude and wishes of good luck to departing member Inkoo Kang, who may have left Boston and the Boston-area media behind for sunny San Francisco but will be fondly remembered here for her unique perspective on all things cinematic and spirited, thoughtful contributions to the Boston film-criticism scene. We wish her good luck in future endeavors and as part of the San Francisco Film Critics Circle.
