Reviews
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Surprisingly incoherent and boring
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
