Reviews
|
Observer -
Burning Palms is too sick to attract the masses, but he's onto something subversively valid, and the film is never boring.
|
|
Los Angeles Times -
Landon's sardonic view of human nature and deft filmmaking skills - plus a raft of sharp portrayals - keep the viewer from pondering the preposterousness of certain situations and instead encourages going along with the fun.
|
|
The Hollywood Reporter -
Never quite achieves the balance of melodrama and dark comedy for which it's aiming.
|
|
Variety -
Making his directorial debut, screenwriter Christopher Landon struggles so mightily to offend that he forgets to supply a rooting interest in his characters.
|
|
L.A. Weekly -
Built-to-shock anthology film.
