10,000 Saints
In this film, Asa Butterfield, a pregnant girl (Healy Steinfeld) and the main singer Emile Hirsch live in the hope of forming a single family. They belong to the Bank Cook, where they decided to form their own alternative family in the era of CBGB. These coexist in Park Square where they provoke a real riot in New York's eastern village in the 1980s.

The cinematography by Ben Kutchins works more from grime than grim, capturing a battered backdrop for the characters rather than a cartoon battlefield of drugs and crime/

"Ten Thousand Saints" pulsates with full-blooded supporting characters who create a tragic-absurd tapestry of decay and rebellion in the Ronald Reagan years, from depressed New England to volatile New York. It's too bad the center cannot hold.

Jude, our narrator, is paper thin. His most memorable qualities are his gangly frame and his bright blue eyes.

It's far from a perfect film, but when it locks on to an emotionally complex moment, the feature succeeds more than a fails.

The movie feels like a quickly-sketched version of something much, much bigger.

The emotionally uneven film is more intriguing in parts than as a whole, with the periphery characters often more compelling than the somewhat passive protagonist.

For a movie with extremely loud punk-rock music at its core, "Ten Thousand Saints" is a pleasantly low-key experience; it's a small-scale character drama about learning to live with loss.

Ethan Hawke is so funny in Ten Thousand Saints that he nearly keeps the movie afloat.
August 20, 2015
The film shows all the earmarks of a story too heavily compressed; the complications among the entwined families pile up after a while, and the period milieu feels arbitrary.

It's a sensitive and interesting film.

Lacks resonance and a steady directorial hand.

Equal parts sensitive and overwrought, intelligent and preachy.
