As it stumbles to the finish line, "Zipper" means to be a condemnation of our political system, but the impact is negligible. The fate of a dull enigma doesn't have much weight.

The film as a whole feels sort of retro as a tawdry cautionary tale.
August 28, 2015 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review… -
Lurid and cheesy and sometimes unintentionally funny.
August 27, 2015 | Rating: 1.5/4 -
Another cautionary yarn about a political hopeful whose adulterous behavior catches up with him, Mora Stephens' "Zipper" hits a snag from the get-go.

What "Zipper" lacks in depth it makes up in interesting, morally shaded supporting characters.
August 27, 2015 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review… -
Mr. Wilson, as dexterous with righteous bravado as with calibrated self-disgust, ably captures Sam's growing enslavement to his impulses.
