    • Its short on fantastic conceits and long on paranoia, dope fueled conversations, and bureaucratic hypocrisy. ( Read More )
    • Owen Gleiberman

    • Ben Walters

      The narrative is also a slippery prospect, as scrambled and frustrating as Freds mask but then thats only fitting for a film about fake impostors with lives that feel like movies shot on CCTV. ( Read More )
    • Desson Thomson

    • Marjorie Baumgarten

      Animating the film proves to be a terrific strategy, as it enhances the storys mood of squinty surveillance and ubiquitous uncertainty. ( Read More )
