      Rachel Saltz New York Times Employing the usual grab bag of documentary building blocks, Mr. Woods never quite melds his film into a compelling whole, though individual pieces can be fascinating. Rated: 2.5/5 Sep 22, 2011 Full Review Nick Schager Village Voice Even at 78 minutes, White Wash pads its material through repetition but remains a proficient portrait of how increased social, economic, and geographic opportunity fosters diversity -- in life and out on the waves. Sep 20, 2011 Full Review Andrew Schenker Slant Magazine Feels simultaneously dense with information and analysis and as pleasantly breezy as a day at the beach-at least for its first half. Rated: 2.5/4 Sep 18, 2011 Full Review Read all reviews
