88 Reviews
Awards Radar
Joey Magidson
88 is looking to be an issues movie, but it's so scattershot/preachy, lectures and "For Dummies" explanations replace tension or making cogent points. The ingredients are here for something quietly powerful, but a lack of a coherent identity prevents it.
AIPT
Nathaniel Muir
The movie is never actively bad, it just has a lot on its plate. For the most part, 88 is a competent movie. It just would have been better served if it were a little smaller in scope.
MovieJawn
Gary M. Kramer
Eromose has made a topical, political conspiracy thriller that offers a modicum of thrills but more than enough food for thought, which is not a bad thing.
We Got This Covered
Martin Carr
This complex political thriller from writer/director Eromose falls just short of greatness.
Eye for Film
Amber Wilkinson
The thriller element of all is slickly written and the tension well generated, but sometimes it struggles for air amid the film's more soapy subplots.
Behind The Lens
Debbie Lynn Elias
A high-concept political thriller, writer/director Eromose's 88 is filled with twists and turns that fuel the suspense and jaw-dropping intrigue as we see the inner workings of a political campaign unfold with horrifying revelations.
Culture Mix
Carla Hay
With compelling performances and an absorbing story, the intriguing drama 88 succeeds in its intention to get viewers to think about how U.S. political campaign fundraising is directly tied to race relations in America.
Mama's Geeky
Tessa Smith
Packed with powerful lessons about social issues, 88 provides some great conversation starters, but unfortunately tries to do way too much and ends up convoluted and messy.
Movie Nation
Roger Moore
It's possible to be a bit awed by the "JFK" ambition of "88," even if the execution waters down Eromose's message to the point where we wonder if he's simply lost his nerve.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
Combined with the increasingly "Parallax View"-like plot machinations, the result is dramatically wonky - and eccentrically thought-provoking.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
Overall, the approach proves too cluttered and diffused, especially if the goal - as it should be here - is to build real dramatic tension.
Hey, Have You Seen ...?
Jared Mobarak
Why put these ideas into a fictional thriller? It only sustains the chasm between conspiracy and reality to the point where the whole feels like a satire of its own earnest motives.
Mark Reviews Movies
Mark Dujsik
[T]he story, unfortunately, doesn't quite measure up to the boldness of its central hypothesis.
Every Movie Has a Lesson
Don Shanahan
While intellectually satisfying to a degree, headiness cannot be its sole peak of moral damage. For peril's sake, you have to let a little, or even a substantial, bit of your mounting suspense go ahead and detonate.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
A lackluster, contrived and vapid political thriller that's not nearly suspense, emotionally engrossing or biting enough.
Assignment X
Abbie Bernstein
88 is smart and entertaining.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
Dixon's compelling performance is overshadowed by a series of progressively far-fetched plot twists that compromise underlying messages about campaign finance loopholes and socioeconomic inequality.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Tim Cogshell
Brandon Victor Dixon's quite good in this movie that's not very good.
