A leisurely arc is that allows for conversations into which exposition is less obviously inserted, and scenes have time to wander before getting to a point.May 24, 2018
A quasi-biography about one of the founders of modern jet propulsion and rocket science technologyJune 12, 2018
More tantalizing than satisfying - though it's amply and very watchably tantalizing.June 14, 2018
I can say that, on nothing more than an unfulfilled promise and a few well-performed weirdos, I'm sold enough to keep watching this genre-shifting historical fiction -- though I'm not devout enough to spill blood yet.June 14, 2018
It might not work as an elevator pitch, but [Jack] Reynor's brash performance keeps the fuel flowing long enough for a viewer's curiosity to take over.June 15, 2018
Strange Angel could develop into an engrossing adventure... but it's too content early on to dwell on the mundane instead of truly embrace the strange.June 15, 2018
Strange Angel is equally a biopic about a stubborn optimist and a commentary on the trying times in which he existed, and it's substantially more compelling when it's the latter.June 11, 2018
The opening episodes can get a bit plodding, mired in round after round of exposition and character development.June 12, 2018
A reasonably engaging slow burn.June 13, 2018
Nice-looking production that needs -- please excuse the cheesy pun -- a lot more rocket fuel.
