American Dream Audience Reviews

Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!
ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
