Ethan Mao Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle
John McMurtrie
It'd be unfair to reveal whether Ethan's prayers go answered, but viewers can take comfort in knowing that their own prayers will be: Yes, this movie, eventually, comes to an end.
L.A. Weekly
Tim Grierson
Nobody onscreen seems to realize that this deadeningly self-serious treatment of family dysfunction is so overwrought that it becomes a spot-on satire of low-budget ineptitude.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Even allowing for the burdens of low-budget filmmaking, Ethan Mao is little more than a revenge fantasy for anyone whose parents ever gave him or her a hard time.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
It builds tension gradually but surely to an exceptionally strong payoff.
Filmcritic.com
Don Willmott
acting, directing, and production are all B to C level
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
Awkward dialogue, amateurist acting and uninspired direction.
Film Threat
Phil Hall
Excellent drama, via Quentin Lee.
Variety
Robert Koehler
Messy admixtures of drama and mockery crucially undermine pic's serious message.
Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Overly ambitious in its themes and crude in its execution.
Village Voice
R. Emmet Sweeney
An exhausting exercise in genre mixing.
New Times
Luke Y. Thompson
For a low-budget indie with no special effects, Ethan Mao is a treat to look at.
