Reviews
Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
