Reviews

The movie's not just good but moving, funny and true to the way people actually live in hard-times America.

Alan Scherstuhl, Village Voice

A low-key gem.

Soren Anderson, Seattle Times

The Confirmation is a nice change of pace from most of the hateful violence we're getting these days-inescapably inconsequential but ultimately endearing.
