Movie Reviews

Reviews:
4 stars out of 4 -- "Everywhere we turn in this film, there is strong acting. Riseborough is brilliant..." - 04/11/2013 Chicago Sun-Times


"Screenwriter Andrew Stern smartly sees that our devices are just devices....It's the fallout that holds our interest..." - 04/11/2013 Los Angeles Times


"[T]he film is impressive...a bleak vision of life in the Internet age..." - 04/11/2013 Wall Street Journal


"The tightness with which the strands are drawn makes DISCONNECT unsettling to watch as its characters and vignettes jostle one another like riders in a jammed subway car. The film ominously conveys a world of too much information but too little communication..." - 04/11/2013 New York Times


"[A] timely and often poignant drama....It's enough to make you want to unplug everything and go live in a yurt." -- Grade: B - 04/19/2013 Entertainment Weekly
