Critic Reviews

  • Kirk Honeycutt, Hollywood Reporter

    Everyone's comic imagination runs out way too early.

  • Kevin Crust, Los Angeles Times

    Though there's a thin noir line between lust and hate, Lansdown delivers nothing to stir the passions of filmgoers one way or the other.

  • Brent Simon, Entertainment Today

    A well-crafted, beautifully composed budget gem [that] sets it sights on the thin veneer of poise and professionalism we associate with the white-collar world.

  • Dan Fienberg, L.A. Weekly

    At 80 minutes, Lansdown still feels padded, visually lazy.

  • Tim Cogshell, Boxoffice Magazine

    Zuber's clever debut feature is a noir/thriller with comedic flair. It is, in fact, darkly hysterical.
