[A] rich and textured film.
August 5, 2010 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review… -
Maddeningly ruled by signposts spotted from miles away.
July 30, 2010 | Rating: 2/5 -
The familiar plot structure is only the tip of the formulaic iceberg, a foundation for more stale conventions than any indie should dare embrace.
July 25, 2010 | Rating: 1/4 | Full Review… -
Features more cliches than it can comfortably handle and is not helped by its grindingly slow pacing.
July 23, 2010 | Full Review… -
Strongly acted and beautifully photographed (by Virgil Mirano), "Spoken Word" is a quietly resonant family drama about the tug of old habits and the difficulties of escaping the past.
July 23, 2010 | Rating: 3.5/5 -
A uniquely crafted introspective yet profoundly visceral film experience, touching on the healing powers of the music in language.

Nov 06, 2010I really wanted to like this movie... but it was a miss. There is some decent acting, but the rest is over-the-top. It seemed scattered as to what the story was supposed to be about: his drug problem, his family issues with his brother and father, his relationship with girlfriend or the conflict with "the villain". No focus.Thomas J Super Reviewer
