Glenn Kenny New York Times By the end of the piece I felt deliberately alienated, and to a nearly infuriating degree. Dec 3, 2015 Full Review Chloë Bass Hyperallergic River of Fundament is a travesty on many levels, but the worst part is that the tragedy of the film is the tragedy of Detroit: we all knew this was happening, and no one said stop.

Audience Member taboo smashing nonsense... product of brainless patronage... hostile to its audience... pretty undergrad. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member The best film I've seen all year, and will probably remain so for the year considering how much of an epic, enjoyable achievement this film is. Extremely glad I caught it at my local theatre on it's roadshow-esque run. Beautiful cinematography, beautiful music, and epic story. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews
