Reviews for Monkey Warfare
A self-professed student of Godard, [Reginald] Harkema more closely resembles another Godard acolyte, Tarantino, right down to the latter's love of weed, foxy chicks, and subtle deceptiveness.
Closet anarchists and urban guerrillas everywhere will enjoy director/writer ... Reginald Harkema's 'How to Fuck The Man' primer.
Not only does it wear its budgetary restrictions with flair and a winning sense of authenticity, it allows its characters — and the remarkable trio who play them — to roam freely in the gap between good intentions and regrettable results.
In the end, the movie's higher themes -- whether the kids and their angry anarchy is "purer" and less hypocritical than old-school activism, that sort of thing -- tend to fall flat.
Along with some fairly silly comedy, romance and irony bounce off each other through Monkey Warfare.
Deep-dyed deadpan Monkey Warfare reps an above-average entry in the Canadian cinematic tradition of loser comedy.
