Review of The Reception

The Reception (2005)
5/10
If you liked The reception it can be a nice doorway to:
12 December 2006
ditto to Ted. It was very slow for me also. Who was mother/daughter? Where is this going. an African American relationship movie? gay/straight it went off into too many different directions and never quite arrived, unless thats your genre of film. If you liked this movie there is an interesting untapped genre not looked at by most Americans and thats the interesting world of French Canadian cinema. Most movies are available with English subtitles.

Though in French, the genre is still very North American. Though lacking in flashy special effects of Hollywood, relationships are explored and they have good sometimes very entertaining story lines with the beauty of Canada for a stage. Search Luc Picard, Roy Dupuis, Sophie Lorain, Patrick Huard for samples. Perhaps that was the purpose of the film? A nice doorway to Canadian films.
