(1 - 10) of 10 OFCS Rating: 100% Fresh Page   1   "Humorously narrated by cult filmmaker John Waters, Plagues & Pleasures on the Salton Sea evokes both laughter and tears."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Betty Jo Tucker A- "It's an absorbing, frightening witness to nature's final hours, filled with strangely enlightening accounts of life on a lifeless terrain."   DVDTalk.com   Brian Orndorf 4/5 "we've seen movies about eccentrics before, but few of them have much to do with anything actually important."   Filmcritic.com   Christopher Null 4/4 "Funny, tragic, and informative Plagues & Pleasures on the Salton Sea is an unforgettable portrait of a desert town turned into a sewer."   ColeSmithey.com   Cole Smithey 4/5 "Plagues and Pleasures of the Salton Sea can best be described as An Inconvenient Truth with a stronger sense of humor, a keen sense of the cost of neglect and with a cast of characters who'd make the residents of Twin Peaks seem mundane."   eFilmCritic.com   Dan Lybarger 6/10 "Plagues and Pleasures on the Salton Sea is a sort of ecological morality tale. This film is fascinating like a slow motion road accident."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Mark R. Leeper 3/4 "Plagues & Pleasures on the Salton Sea is funny, enlightening, informative, and most importantly of all - admiring."   Aisle Seat   Mike McGranaghan 4/5 "A smart and engrossing film that illustrates in sharp and convincing detail how ecological accidents can mushroom into full-blown disasters as long as people are willing to turn a blind eye to their ongoing impact."   eFilmCritic.com   Peter Sobczynski 4/4 "Chris Metzler and Jeff Springer’s 'sea-umentary' is a compelling tale of human foible, greed and inertia."   JWR   S. James Wegg 3/4 "The ridiculous and the sublime collide, with tragicomic results, in Plagues & Pleasures on the Salton Sea, Chris Metzler and Jeff Springer's lively, fascinating chronicle of "Paradise Lost" in the Southern California desert."   Reel.com   Timothy Knight  (1 - 10) of 10 OFCS Rating: 100% Fresh Page   1
