Unraveled

"It's a fascinating fishbowl in concept, yet Simon's storytelling is unevenly textured and oddly listless - fatal for a film about a banal document-pushing felon clock-watching to a known outcome."

"How he lost his way is really never sufficiently explained, making the decision to cast Dreier as the central narrator of his own tale highly questionable."

"In allowing Dreier to shape his own narrative, too many lame excuses are allowed to pass, as the financial schemer spins his own story dangerously close to self-pity."

"Like the Upper East Side penthouse in which it unfolds, the documentary "Unraveled" is cool and elegant, echoing with spaces for our imaginations to fill."

"One moment Dreier is proclaiming his regret, the next he's drawing a bankrupt analogy between fictional bank robbers and the crimes he committed in "so-called reality.""

"The fascinating human portrait that emerges should draw appreciative if limited audiences."
