    It moves so confidently and brightly that it's ticklish as well as chilling - and, in its own dark way, enthralling.

    The brouhaha aside, this chronicle of SNAFUs foretold doesn't have much new to say but says it with biting precision, and Phoenix's sharp, sneakily sympathetic performance is a pleasure to watch.

    For all the controversy surrounding Buffalo Soldiers, you'd think the film would at least be interesting.

    Dramatically, it doesn't work. On the comedy side of things, it was pretty freaking genius. A solid outing for Joaquin Phoenix.
