[Director] Colpaert makes nice use of blue and green hues, and he makes some valid points about the Iraqi war. But the script lacks coherence and ends with a 180-degree flip that lessens the impact of what has gone before. Apr 11, 2007 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

For such a gritty indie film, it's galling that [Arquette] and his family are so handsomely photogenic in a generic Hollywood way. Where's the rebellious truth in that? Mar 23, 2007 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

The choices made by the characters are sure to infuriate some, but at least they add to the discussion. Jan 26, 2007 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

G.I. Jesus is what a movie at a film festival should be -- creative, original, and challenging. Feb 2, 2009 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

G.I. JESÚS isn't perfect but in its modest manner it is an ambitious and intriguing film. It is packed with topics ranging from immigration to the deployment of potentially ill men and women to the lack of proper care for veterans to the haunting effects May 7, 2007 | Rating: C+ | Full Review…
