3.5/5
Stylish, sharp and rocking an infectious energy, Sender is intoxicating. A truly singular exploration of addiction, paranoia and the all-too-real vulnerability tethered to our reliance on e-commerce. Go to Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com Mar 19
The problem is that too many of Goldman’s choices as a director seem to actively be working against what Britt Lower brings to his interesting script Go to Full Review Alejandra Martinez Austin Chronicle Mar 18
A harrowing film that understands the messiness and the terrifying nature of recovery from addiction. Perhaps the messiness is the point, even if it left me feeling a little empty. Go to Full Review Karina Adelgaard Heaven of Horror 1d
3/5

Goldman crafts a corrosive horror story about algorithmic intimacy, surveillance capitalism, addiction, and the terrifying possibility that unseen corporate forces know us more intimately than we know ourselves. Go to Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue 3d
This unnerving satirical thriller about paranoid conspiracies remains grounded in strained family dynamics and the need for human connection. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
