      Shaun Munro Flickering Myth Ultimately, you'll probably be left feeling for everyone involved, even the shooter himself, with basic humanity and decency prevailing above all else. Rated: 4/5 Mar 19, 2018 Full Review Laura Hiros Diario La Estrella (Fort Worth, TX) The story based on a real 911 call in the suburbs of Atlanta will make your heart pound... [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 5/5 Mar 14, 2018 Full Review Kiko Martinez San Antonio Current The dynamic between actors Tarra Riggs and Bo Mitchell is authentic and humanistic as writer/director Reed Van Dyk allows the scene to take form one heartbreaking second after another. Rated: B+ Mar 7, 2018 Full Review MaryAnn Johanson Flick Filosopher Quietly shocking. A formidable counterargument to the bombast from certain quarters about arming teachers in order to meet such violence with more violence. Rated: 4.5/5 Mar 5, 2018 Full Review Indra Arriaga Anchorage Press The characters are complex and the acting superb. Feb 23, 2018 Full Review Dan Lybarger Arkansas Democrat-Gazette Writer-director Reed Van Dyk gives both actors remarkably meaty if not flashy roles and avoids the temptation for long monologues, which would kill any narrative tension. Rated: 4/5 Feb 23, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
