If you're the type who doesn't go to art-house films , Murderball should be your exception. It's hard to imagine anyone could walk away from this movie disappointed. -

Children of Men is CuarĂ³n's run for freedom, with a riveting story, fantastic action scenes and acting so universally solid that even the dogs perform masterfully under his direction. -

Anvil lives somewhere in that thoroughly entertaining gray area between self-parody and the triumph of human spirit. -

The result is an excellent film - entertaining and informative and sometimes stunning in its display of the personal demons shared by these two geniuses. -

As challenging as it must have been to pilot Joss Whedon's space opera from the TV junk pile to the big screen, the finished product is a triumph. -

By the time the ride is over, director Drew Goddard and co-writers Goddard and Joss Whedon will change course three or four times, nodding and winking but never losing momentum.- Posted Apr 12, 2012

It's a hilarious comedy made even more successful because so much of the satire seems fresh. -

It would have been enough for The Other Dream Team to simply pay tribute to the tie-dyed underdogs, but the filmmakers strived for more. Adding detailed historical context, the quirky feel-good story becomes a tragedy and a lesson. And that makes the victories resonate even more.- Posted Oct 11, 2012

The result is a comedy that's low budget in all the right ways - so hilarious, testosterone-charged and yet cringe-inducing to watch that the result is almost exhausting. -
