You may get the sense you've wandered into a super-intense acting class or someone's therapy session - a hothouse atmosphere that's oppressive.

Rated: 2/4

New York Times

Dependably genuine, and suffused with Mr. Jaglom's increasingly mellow intelligence, this lighthearted backstage drama will feel to his fans like a gathering of familiars.

Plays like an actors' workshop exercise that doesn't know when to quit ...

Sadly, the quality of the production gets shakier as we pass the half-hour mark. The camerawork is okay, but what the camera is recording wouldn't pass muster for your average high school senior play.

[Ovation] is passable fare that might suffice for a rainy-day matinee. But it can't complete with superior films playing around town now.

Rated: 1.5/4

The real-life theater location gives the picture more production value than is often found in the Jaglomography, and Ovation! is one of his more accessible works overall.
