Critic Reviews

This is a droll, laid-back film noir steeped in Crescent City atmosphere and music that culminates in the colliding worlds of genuine and virtual reality.Full Review

Los Angeles Times

Isn't for everyone. It seems certain to confound as many viewers as it will inspire. But pic will foster a core critical contingent that will find itself transfixed and, ultimately, deeply moved by the film's ravishing power.Full Review

Variety

Village Voice

Beautifully acted and filmed, with the Internet imagery rendered in Pixelvision.Full Review

David Hunter
The Hollywood Reporter
