For the Plasma Reviews
AV Club
Mike D'Angelo
Ranks among the year's most singular movies, even as it also ranks among the year's most painful movies to endure.
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
With deadpan line readings that seem purposefully affected, it's a film that plays with our instinct to look for meaning in imagery, and the baggage we bring to a movie.
Slant Magazine
Carson Lund
The film, whose disparate narrative threads unsurprisingly never connect, drowns in weirdness for its own sake.
The Playlist
Jason Ooi
Extremely funny at times, light and breezy throughout, the film eludes but never fully discourages its audience from following along.
Under the Radar
Julia Bembenek
As the plot spools out and never finds any moments of true narrative clarity, the film's particularities feel less and less sure-footed.
Los Angeles Times
Michael Rechtshaffen
[An] annoyingly oblique exercise in arty affectation by Bingham Bryant and Kyle Molzan.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
The movie's sole attraction is an odd, exceptionally potent electronic score by Japanese pop musician Keiichi Suzuki.
Village Voice
Danny King
For the Plasma finds genuine, almost innocent-seeming delight in its own swerves in style and rhythm.
Variety
Nick Schager
Only faintly touching upon notions of intuitive collaboration and inspiration, "For the Plasma" wanders about as if it's in a fog, ultimately to the point of pointlessness.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
"For the Plasma" is a film with no shortage of ambition, taste (Maine looks great in 16-millimeter) or ideas. It's a shame those ideas are so incoherent.
indieWire
Eric Kohn
For the Plasma offers many pleasures, but no single interpretation, and that open-ended state is a liberating alternative to anything else in recent American cinema.
New Yorker
Richard Brody
The movie's visual prose, aided by simple but fanciful camera work, has an original, giddy spin; Bryant and Molzan's smooth and floaty direction sublimates the rocky landscape into something disturbingly ethereal.
Gay City News
Steve Erickson
"For the Plasma" may frustrate some people by erring too much on the side of the enigmatic, especially in its final half hour, but it offers up a compelling optimist's vision of the forest of life, before which we're all searching for answers.
Newcity
Ray Pride
[For the Plasma] mixes verdant landscape with shimmery surveillance and passages of solitude with the simmer of paranoia in a fashion not often played through in narrative filmmaking.
Brooklyn Magazine
Elina Alter
In its obvious, 16mm love for wilderness, its desire both to capitalize on and dismiss tradition, and its stubborn refusal to cohere, a very American production.
Film Journal International
Eric Monder
Co-directors Bingham Bryant and Kyle Molzan show a genuine talent for maintaining a low-grade level of suspense and juxtaposing camera movement and tableaux shots in creative ways.
