Dotan takes this iffy story and makes it nearly unwatchable by jumping back and forth in time, using screens within screens and bouncing between color and black-and-white. Jan 20, 2012 | Rating: 0.5/4 | Full Review…

The film nicely captures the grad-student vibe: beer-fueled bull sessions about science, religion, probability and destiny; fragile, self-absorbed egos preening even as confidence wavers. Jan 19, 2012 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

This quirky indie has an off-kilter, shaggy appeal and a filling story. Jan 19, 2012 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The conversations feel artificial, overly concerned with re-creating period detail or interjecting relevant philosophical life concepts, like a constantly rehashed theory of alternate universes built on different "what if?" scenarios. Jan 19, 2012 | Full Review…

The timeline jitters out of order, dropping viewers into a scenario it takes far longer than necessary to discover is straightforward and self-seriously soap operatic. Jan 19, 2012 | Rating: D+ | Full Review…

Less a story loosely bound by cause and effect than a kind of scrapbook of memories, all of which convey the concerns of being super smart and mostly confused in a culturally mixed Manhattan, circa 1980. Jan 29, 2012 | Rating: 3/5

A cautionary tale of innocence lost, delivering a prophetic message with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight that a generation ago America might have already been 'a culture in decay.' Jan 21, 2012 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

The first half of Shimon Dotan's Watching TV with the Red Chinese is a virtual compendium of high-culture references, topical concerns addressed almost in passing, and narrative fracturing devices. Jan 15, 2012 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…
