(1 - 15) of 15 OFCS Rating: 73% Fresh Page   1   B+ "A film of miniature treasures...a lyrical picture, not forceful. Give it some time, and it's almost sure to get under your skin."   BrianOrndorf.com   Brian Orndorf 3/5 "conjures up a handful of winsome delights in its brief running time"   Filmcritic.com   Chris Barsanti "While the scene announces the film's intensive focus on water -- a sign of transition, loss and rebirth -- it is also a sign of its stylized poetry, sometimes lovely, sometimes precious."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs B "Explores modern-day loneliness and alienation in Tel Aviv."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz "Its seventy-eight minutes are dense and resonant, a weave of stories related by theme, plot and beachfront location."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Donald J. Levit 3/5 "An imaginative Israeli film about loneliness, missing persons, and the value of truly being present with others."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 6/10 "We get a mix of comedy, tragedy, and some mysticism. The stories are strange and offbeat and just matter-of-factly seem to drift into magical realism."   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Mark R. Leeper 2/4 "Jellyfish exists in a no man's land, adrift in vague, waterlogged abstractions on which the filmmakers can hang their characters' collective baggage."   Slant Magazine   Paul Schrodt 1/5 "Although it runs 78 minutes, it feels like 78 hours. This is a Jellyfish with no sting."   Film Threat   Phil Hall B- "...an intricate weaving of the separate lives of its three [femme]principals. Their story is told with an intelligent understanding of the characters"   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 8/10 "A wonderfully complex exploration into people's attempts to control the fates and their own discovered strengths in the wake of illusory failure."   Monsters and Critics   Ron Wilkinson 6/10 "...the contrivances ... allow the filmmakers to tell the stories of a number of different characters who would otherwise have no business being in the same film."   Playback:stl   Sarah Boslaugh B "It has the modest scope of a short-story collection, with simply but vividly sketched characters that briefly glow within their tales."   Seattle Post-Intelligencer   Sean Axmaker 7/10 "It is a restful film, and one full of wise observations."   Antagony & Ecstasy   Tim Brayton "Click here to see review"   Wolf Entertainment Guide   William Wolf  (1 - 15) of 15 OFCS Rating: 73% Fresh Page   1
