Kenji Fujishima Village Voice Some of the biking footage is pretty in a generic way; for the most part, we're told rather than shown how astonishing the riders' athletic feats are. Dec 22, 2016 Full Review Daniel M. Gold New York Times "The Ataxian" has moments of inspiration, beauty, even euphoria. But its lasting contribution is in making the world a little more familiar with this disease, and a little less lonely for the families struggling against it. Dec 15, 2016 Full Review Kimber Myers Los Angeles Times More unity of style would have made a better final product, but Kyle's story - coupled with vibrant cinematography from Schlanser - is strong enough to keep audiences engaged and moved throughout the brief running time.
