Q (1/93, p.80) - 3 Stars - Good - "...an album of stark, frail beauty...the music threatens to catch fire with quite mesmerising results..."Magnet (p.108) - "Out of the cinders of G500, the duo emerged dreamily optimistic and triumphant."The Wire (p.68) - "Damon & Naomi create a self-contained world of sound that drifts on softened harmony vocals and the fragile, almost bottomless, rhythms of sparsely strummed guitars."Musician (9/97, p.85) - "...If the airy folk textures recall the dreamier side of vintage psychedelia, glimpses of passion offer an arresting reminder of the turmoil within....Damon & Naomi's deliciously wry style conveys major stuff like uncertainty and regret with rare eloquence..."Clash (magazine) (p.107) - "[T]he husband and wife combo are at their most melancholic on this album, but in a pensive, introspective way."Record Collector (magazine) (p.92) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "Damon & Naomi's is a dreamy but somewhat eerie sound, Naomi's voice providing a cut-glass counterpart to the musical bittersweet swirl."17.2002

Wisely, Meehl roots this redemption tale in carefully observed demonstrations at his clinics..."Film Comment "It keeps you fascinated, even enthralled; elicits astonishment, even wonderment, and makes you grateful for the chance to meet someone remarkable."Wall Street Journal "The film is deeply moving yet never maudlin in telling this hard-knocks-but-hope-infused story."Los Angeles Times "Soft-spoken and stoical, Brannaman is a firm but sensitive presence in front of the camera and facing down a spooked horse."Movieline "A not-so-simple story simply told, BUCK was directed by Cindy Meehl....Finding a great subject can be half the battle in documentary, and in Mr. Brannaman she discovered one who holds you attention and heart for a tight 88 minutes."New York Times 3 stars out of 4 -- "Buck Brannaman was the original HORSE WHISPERER....He has a way with horses and Cindy Meehl's documentary is moving as he shows them engaged in dances of understanding."Chicago Sun-Times "The movie is shaped with the same economy, restraint, and unfussiness as the man, to unexpectedly inspiring effect." -- Grade: A-Entertainment Weekly10.91646

"[S]weetly nostalgic and gently satiric....What renders it worth watching are three key performances. John Malkovich is pitch-perfect as the egomaniacal, vaudeville-style magician..."USA Today "[A]n agreeable show business satire with a warm heart....John Malkovich exaggerates the familiar mannerisms of this self-described professional mentalist to create a barbed but affectionate portrait of a second-string trouper struggling for a comeback."New York Times 3 stars out of 5 -- "Buck is the type of 'take it and run with it' part that brings out the best in Malkovich....Blunt adds further star power to the film's terrific cast..."Box Office "THE GREAT BUCK HOWARD gives the loopy John Malkovich the showcase he deserves....[The film] is in love with kitsch, the backwaters of showbiz, and true magic. It's a wee charmer..." -- Grade: A-Entertainment Weekly 3.5 stars out of 4 -- "Colin Hanks is affecting....No one else could have played Buck better than Malkovich....The film is funny and perceptive..."Chicago Sun-Times 3.5 stars out of 4 -- "Malkovich is just right for the role of the quirky mentalist....The pacing and direction of the film match up perfectly with Malkovich's performance."Premiere6.28466
