Critic Reviews for Life During Wartime
All Critics (16) | Top Critics (5) | Fresh (9) | Rotten (7)
It's a film of small delights rather than a home run, and an encouraging first foray for Dunsky.
Unable to decide where to go or what tone to adopt, it ends up treading water.
As a showcase for Tucci's comic skills, "The Alarmist" succeeds. We start the film feeling buoyed by his roosterlike energy and audacity, and we end it feeling let down by a script that can't quite decide what it wants to say.
Electric performances, the plot, and the cheerful guitar score by Christophe Beck, help make The Alarmist a fun and... well... "quirky" experience.
Although not without its flaws, The Alarmist is an intriguing and often hilarious look at urban life in the late 1990's.
First-time filmmaker Dunsky doesn't always know where to place his camera to maximize the edgy humor that lurks near the script's surface.
