from the Variety review:

"Set in a quasi-Fascist alternative U.S. of the 1980s, "Radio Free Albemuth" is an engrossing adaptation of the same-named novel by Philip K. Dick. Produced on a much more modest scale than previous Dick interpretations such as "Minority Report," this well-performed paranoia piece about a music exec rebelling against the state after receiving messages from an alien intelligence should connect strongly
with Dick's fanbase and attract upscale auds seeking sci-fi with political and philosophical substance. John Alan Simon's helming debut, which hasn't yet secured Stateside distribution, could prosper in niche situations if correctly marketed. Hefty worldwide ancillary action is assured."

"the narrative delivers satisfying intrigue and suspense"

"Pic operates successfully as a study of enlightenment and a straight-ahead conspiracy thriller."

"Gritty HD lensing and imaginative, old-fashioned-in-a-good-way effects."

"A terrific score is the jewel in a first-class tech package."
