(1 - 12) of 12 OFCS Rating: 33% Rotten Page   1   B "The roles are superbly realized by Wood and Thurman, but the real backbone of the picture is Perelman, who takes great care to weave the small tragedies into a wounded whole."   BrianOrndorf.com   Brian Orndorf "Diana pays for her bad choices perpetually, in large part through her self-comparisons to M, whose piety she alternately teases and reveres."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs 3/4 "...an intricately-plotted and richly conceived drama..."   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair 3/4 "Paints a compelling and thought-provoking picture of not only school violence, but violence in general, and the trickle-down effect that a single moment in time can have on one's whole future."   TheMovieBoy.com   Dustin Putman C "Matters of taste aside, the film's platitude-heavy dialogue and pseudo-philosophical themes are ridiculous."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider C "Perelman's ambition...is admirable; he's obviously trying to tell this story in a distinctive and challenging way....Unfortunately, he doesn't quite pull off the trick."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 3/4 "Technically, the movie is impressive."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli "The trouble lies in the story."   Planet Sick-Boy   Jon Popick 2/4 "It's sad to see such subtle, wrenchingly emotional work expended on such trifling material."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh C+ "Director Vadim Perelman...makes a misstep with the well crafted but flawed The Life Before Here Eyes."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 3/10 "Full of fussed-over significant images and delicately planned interlocking narrative motives, and it's about as subtle and clever as somebody clubbing you over the head with a folding chair"   Antagony & Ecstasy   Tim Brayton "Click here to see review"   Wolf Entertainment Guide   William Wolf  (1 - 12) of 12 OFCS Rating: 33% Rotten Page   1
