Ghostbox Cowboy Ratings & Reviews
n+1
A.S. Hamrah
Immersed in our shared dollar-store world of travel-sized toiletries, useless trinkets, and selfie sticks, Ghostbox Cowboy investigates American and Chinese capitalism by presenting two sides of the same bad penny.
Film Threat
Lorry Kikta
The score by Casey Wayne McAllister encapsulates the dystopian discomfort the film is out to convey, somehow being serene yet grating simultaneously.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
A scary, dryly funny dissection of entrepreneurial absurdism bleeding into existential and metaphysical despair.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
This original if sometimes befuddling vision blurs the line between fiction and documentary elements, conventional storytelling and improvisational collage, all to oft-bracing effect.
Los Angeles Times
Noel Murray
The movie is unique, and often off-putting, in ways that should be exciting to open-minded cinephiles.
IndieWire
Eric Kohn
"Ghostbox Cowboy" truly defies categorization, and remains so unpredictable that no single viewing can resolve the fertile ideas it puts on the table about globalization, innovation, and the role of individuality in a fast-paced world that rejects it.
It's Just Movies
Ron Wilkinson
A scam flick that quickly breaks out into fantasy and morphs into a good-natured nightmare.
The Playlist
Joe Blessing
Fascinating, atmospheric, and utterly strange in ways both good and bad, Ghostbox Cowboy pulls back the curtain on those trying to export the American dream and reaping the whirlwind.
The Hollywood Reporter
Harry Windsor
If this all sounds a bit depressing, it is. But it's certainly never boring, and Maringouin makes the madness feel queasily real.
