RTNew York TimesMar 19, 2010

Intermittently beautiful but frustratingly leaden, Shutterbug labors ineffectually to promote authenticity over artifice.

RTVarietyMar 17, 2010

Spins experimental imagery and mystical manifestations into a gossamer-thin, ponderously off-the-wall plot.

Papas makes our familiar city seem just as invitingly sinister as you once imagined it to be.

Kam Williams

RTNewsBlazeMar 26, 2010

An overambitious production which, while not quite ready for primetime due to techical flaws, at least exhibits enough promise in terms of acting, plot and camera angles to make this critic curious to see Papas's next picture. Dante's Purgatory!
