(1 - 24) of 24 OFCS Rating: 83% Fresh Page   1   3/4 "How many movies offer up frank discussions based on existentialism?"   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair A - "Whatever ... the film to its credit never loses track of its humanity."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz 3.5/4 "Captures the resourcefulness and fragility of human nature with a consistently sharp eye that proves truly mesmerizing."   TheMovieBoy.com   Dustin Putman 2.5/4 "What with all the blanket statements and dime-store ruminations on vanity, the worries of the rich and sudden wisdom, the film becomes a sermon for most of its running time."   Slant Magazine   Ed Gonzalez A "A small, quiet movie, full of surprises and powerful character moments."   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov B "A small film, but one whose modest grace provides greater satisfaction than most Hollywood blockbusters."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek "One of the best films of the year with its exploration of the obstacles to happiness faced by five contemporary individuals...a psychological masterpiece."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 4/5 "Fractured, flowing ensemble piece has a heart of true, sincere humanity -- and two brilliant performances."   Netflix   James Rocchi 3/4 ""13 Conversations" holds its goodwill close, but is relatively slow to come to the point."   Palo Alto Weekly   Jeanne Aufmuth 6/10 "As [the characters] get more depressed, the story gets more tiresome, especially as it continues to mount a conspicuous effort to be profound."   Window to the Movies   Jeffrey Chen 5.5/10 "Whatever the truth, and despite some strong performances and a mildly creative way of interconnecting the various storylines, the picture is too much of a downer to be considered entertaining."   Screen It!   Jim Judy 4.5/5 "Treating the audience like adults with a fine ensemble cast, intelligent dialogue, and real everyday situations that make us question the purpose of our lives..."   ToxicUniverse.com   John A. Nesbit 9/10 "Sprecher's 13 Conversations About One Thing is as brilliant a second film as you're likely to see."   Planet Sick-Boy   Jon Popick A- "a screenplay more ingeniously constructed than "Memento""   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford 3.5/5 "It starts slowly, but this contemplative drama's cumulative effect is genuinely haunting."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh 3.5/5 "So packed with intriguing ideas that it's well worth seeing, even if it feels rather clinical and aloof."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline B "While the whole of the film is satisfying, it seemed there were a couple of pieces missing from this jigsaw puzzle."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten B+ "“13 Conversations About One Thing” is an intelligent flick that examines many different ideas from happiness to guilt in an intriguing bit of storytelling."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 2.5/4 "A decided lack of spontaneity in its execution and a dearth of real poignancy in its epiphanies."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw "It takes getting comfortable with the leisurely pace that Sprecher sets, but the cumulative effect of the performances and the narratives gets under the skin, perhaps to the point of prompting thoughts about one's own life."   Wolf Entertainment Guide   William Wolf 8/10 Read review   Movie Gazette   Anton Bitel A- Read review   EricDSnider.com   Eric D.
