DUELING CRITICS

"It's an intoxicating feeling when a movie excites and enlivens us like this -- and there's a particular giddiness to be had in thinking about what movies can (but don't often) do for one's soul after imbibing such a fine vintage"

- Lisa Schwarzbaum

"Makes you feel like you're trapped at dinner with a wiseass who's trying to convince you what a sensitive guy he is...There isn't any pleasure to be had in watching people whom you haven't been made to care about making fools of themselves"

- Charles Taylor
