Comic Reno muses on the events of Sept. 11, 2001, militarism, patriotism, President George W. Bush and the media.

Frank Scheck

Hollywood Reporter

[Reno] delivers a monologue that manages to incorporate both the horror and the absurdity of the situation in a well-balanced fashion.

Megan Lehmann

New York Post

When [Reno] lets her radical flag fly, taking angry potshots at George W. Bush, Henry Kissinger, Larry King, et al., Reno devolves into a laugh-free lecture.

Rated: 2/4

Stephen Holden

New York Times

If Reno is to the left of liberal on the political spectrum, her tough, funny, rather chaotic show isn't subversive so much as it is nit-picky about the hypocrisies of our time.

Rated: 3/5

Jan Stuart

The Advocate

Rebel Without a Pause is never more necessary than when it calls into question our own vulnerability to patriotic fervor.

Doris Toumarkine

Film Journal International

The film delivers not just the full assault of Reno's immense wit and insight, but a time travel back to what it felt like during those unforgettably uncertain days.
