Snider C+ "A near-miss that the adventurous might still want to check out."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 3/4 "Almost guaranteed to amass a cult following as it makes its way across U.S. theaters during its national release."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 3.5/4 "A bit of Zeus' myth, a tad of Freud, everything but the kitchen sink."   Palo Alto Weekly   Jeanne Aufmuth 7/10 "A colorful, high-energy rock show ... But it also has a poignant side."   Window to the Movies   Jeffrey Chen 4/10 ""Doesn't really come together as a whole, with over-the-top symbolism, incoherence and too much pretension to retain my interest all the whole way through.""   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo A " The rock musical is created anew with John Cameron Mitchell's dynamic, fearlessly individual vision and Stephen Trask's perfectly evocative music and lyrics."   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford 3.5/4 "Writer/director/star John Cameron Mitchell pulls off a stunning cinematic hat trick that's all too rare for a first-time filmmaker."   TheMovieReport.com   Michael Dequina 4/5 "One of the strangest and most effective musicals to come along in a long time."   Goatdog's Movies   Michael W. Phillips, Jr. 5/5 "Anyone who has ever felt discarded, disenfranchised, or just plain dissed will find in Hedwig a lot to hook into."   eFilmCritic.com   Rob Gonsalves B+ "Like its protagonist, Hedwig succeeds on its own terms, brazenly asserting itself with no regrets or apologies."   Flipside Movie Emporium   Rob Vaux 3.5/4 "Hedwig and the Angry Inch" is a top-notch rock and roll musical along the lines of "Moulin Rouge" and "Rocky Horror Picture Show."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten 3/4 "Velvet Goldmine and All that Jazz by way of The Wall--a bombastically endearing romp that is as infectious as it is (surprisingly) poignant."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw B+ Read review   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford Read review   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Jonathan F. Richards Read review   Montreal Film Journal   Kevin N. Laforest Read review   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline  (1 - 22) of 22 OFCS Rating: 89% Fresh Page   1
