Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Rarely has comedy been as unnerving as it is in The Red Chapel. Perhaps that's because it's hard to tell who the joke is on. One thing's for sure, though: North Korea isn't laughing.

Things might not go quite as Brugger planned, but as is so often the case, that seems to have been for the best.

The Red Chapel becomes an infectiously funny, gonzo glimpse into the sausage-making process of propaganda.
