Daydream Nation
The story begins with a drama of a different kind. The story began with Caroline Wesler, who moved into a strange society always because of an industrial fire after her father had a new job in that strange region. Along the way, Carolina faces a love triangle between her teacher, Mr. Anderson and her classmate Thorston. At the same time there is a serial killer who may have supernatural powers and a satanic thought.

Daydream Nation is a mess, but a gorgeous mess. Come for the flaccid teen distress, stay for the stunning imagery.

Sonic Youth should sue.

A fitfully engaging effort that is most successful as a performance piece for actors Kat Dennings and Reece Thompson.

While not always comfortable in its quaint, quirky skin, it does deliver some intriguing performances and some inventive directorial turns.

An alternately heady and queasy portrait of a small town slipping into madness.

The goodwill that the charming Dennings has built up in earlier films, such as 40-Year-Old Virgin and Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, doesn't excuse this role.

"Daydream Nation" rolls elements of "Juno," "American Beauty," "Donnie Darko" and "Twin Peaks" into a potent blunt.

Director/writer Mike Goldbach's first half of the film is engaging ..., suspenseful (who is the "man in the white suit?"-with a delectable shade of grey served up red herring style) and masterfully balanced.

Worth seeking out...
May 05, 2011
It's a film about teen angst that's too caught up in its characters' state of mind to see its way through to the other side.

Goldbach fills the story with too many distractions, but Dennings, known for "Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist," is feline and fun.

All three leads do a good job and the film is visually appealing. As a director, Goldbach shows promise.
