Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
A delightfully strange hybrid creature.
Possibly represents the debut of a one-of-a-kind filmmaker, a natural driven by wild energy, like Tarantino.
It's like the world's coolest iPhone camera app writ large, and while it'd be misleading to make too much of this picture, it'd be a shame to make too little of it, either.
After a while, "Bellflower" feels like it can't stop checking itself out in the mirror. It's a pose, not a movie.
