Movie Reviews

Reviews:
"The violence in HARD TIMES is swift and pulpy -- it’s thrilling to watch Chaney K.O. his first opponent with a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it punch." - 05/03/2013 New York Times


"Directed with great precision and sobriety, HARD TIMES itself seems the taciturn opposite of so much of the unruly, loquacious American cinema of the 1970s..." - 07/07/2013 New York Times
