It is a flawed but intriguing film that promises better things to come from its filmmaker. May 16, 2008 | Rating: 2/4

While people looking to get away from the big explosions and broad comedy that accompany most summer movies will appreciate the effort, this seems like the kind of thing you should be getting for free on TV. May 9, 2008 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

A dreary, interminable drama written and directed by Eva Aridjis, is exactly one-third of a good movie. May 2, 2008 | Rating: 2/5

Writer-director Eva Aridjis has a flat style that's frankly numbing; Wood tries valiantly, but he and Donowho are both dragged down by the script. April 30, 2008 | Rating: 2/6 | Full Review…

As an unconscious parody of everything that's wrong with Indiewood, Eva Aridjis's The Favor is brilliant. Otherwise, it's an unwatchable nightmare that brought back bad memories of NYU screenwriting classes. April 30, 2008 | Full Review…

Nothing extraordinary happens, and [director] Aradjis relies on Wood and Donowho to carry the slight thread of a film. May 16, 2008 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Yet another small, "sensitive" character study of unassuming "little" folk trying their best under trying circumstances, all amounting to the purest banality. May 2, 2008 | Full Review…

The Favor ultimately takes itself too seriously and ends up stranded in an unconvincing no man's land of cute bleakness. May 1, 2008 | Full Review…

Forgive me if I've already forgotten what The Favor is really about, but the truth is so does Miss Aridjis. So drastically in fact, that the film doesn't even qualify for After School Special exemption status. May 1, 2008 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…
