Sean O'Connell Washington Post Jon Van Dyke's "Not Today" doesn't qualify as a good movie, but it's built on an admirable foundation of good intentions. Rated: 2/4 Apr 12, 2013 Full Review Tom Keogh Seattle Times Writer-director Jon Van Dyke offers rugged production values, and his real agenda - getting Christian viewers to help end sex trafficking - mires the movie in self-conscious angst and speeches. Rated: 1.5/4 Apr 11, 2013 Full Review Diana Saenger ReviewExpress.com Touching and Important Rated: 4.5/5 Apr 17, 2013 Full Review David Noh Film Journal International Vitally important theme unstrung by shaky direction, writing and acting and a major flaw in subtitling. Apr 11, 2013 Full Review Kam Williams Sly Fox This compelling, modern morality play marking the noteworthy directorial debut of Jon Van Dyke amounts to a searing indictment of India's shameful caste system for its enslavement of females based on the color of their skin. Rated: 3/4 Apr 6, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews
