The American Ratings & Reviews
Beyond the Cinerama Dome
Tina Kakadelis
The American celebrates such a delicate art, but is a bloody tale about the cost of obsessively reaching for perfection.
Loud and Clear Reviews
Philip Bagnall
The American may not hold a lot of surprises, from an artist getting a big break, to letting their workaholism and confidence undermine them, to a fall before redemption. Still, it's worth seeking out for Ryder's performance.

Mark Jackson
These Bolshoi girls are beautiful on the outside and as cutthroat as gangsters inside ... I like the Chinese classical dance where spirit leads form, so that form is imbued with spirit. Hopefully ballet incorporates that philosophy again someday.
