      Audience Member Chantal is the star of the show! 2nd billing goes to Denver, which looks great. The humanity and decency of the people who made the 2008 Democratic Convention a success is on display - too bad somebody made the decision to turn Denver into an armed camp at the same time. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Lisa Kennedy Denver Post What Convention sets out to do, it does with understated candor. Rated: 3/4 Jun 11, 2010 Full Review Mike Hale New York Times Some of this is awfully pedestrian, but there are moments of both high comedy and high drama. Rated: 2.5/5 Jun 4, 2010 Full Review Kyle Smith New York Post Cinma vrit? More like cinma banalit. Rated: 1/4 Jun 4, 2010 Full Review Matt Pais Metromix.com Ooh, will mayor's special assistant Chantal Unfug learn to ride a scooter? Will protestors spend less than half their time defending their right to protest? Rated: 2/5 Jul 6, 2010 Full Review Ian Buckwalter DCist While Convention may be more traditional documentary fare in content than his last film, A.J. Schnack is not without a new trick up his sleeve: a collaborative documentary made with a group of documentarians, each with his/her own assignment. Rated: 6.7/10 Jun 13, 2010 Full Review Eric Monder Film Journal International Slickly produced but devoid of purpose, Convention tackles several storylines occurring at the 2008 Democratic National Convention.
