Rating: 2.5/5 -- Marshall's ambitions are admirable, but he falls short when it comes to wrapping the message in credible, compelling drama. Full Review
TV Guide
Jul 1, 2005
Rating: 3/4 -- The fusion of fiction and independent journalism adds to the complexity of a story that exposes the 'news' as a narrative cowritten by the government and the TV networks. Full Review

Rating: 2.5/5 -- Stephen Marshall's admirable but unfocused new film is set in New York City during the 2004 Republican National Convention. Full Review

Rating: 1/4 -- Marshall says he was inspired by the Haskell Wexler cult classic Medium Cool, filmed at the infamous 1968 Democratic convention in Chicago. He has a lot to learn before he'll be anywhere near Wexler.

As any revolutionary knows, there's a big leap between theory and practice, and that leap proves too much for tyro helmer Stephen Marshall's This Revolution.
Variety

It's the kind of engaged, political filmmaking that is rarely seen today, and it's a welcome and powerful addition to the canon.

Product Description:

Rosario Dawson (SIN CITY) stars in this political thriller about ethics and the media. Nathan Crooker is Jake Cassavetes, a network cameraman with experience in war photography. His network asks him to cover another front: the 2004 Republican National Convention in New York City. There he meets Tina Santiago (Dawson), a single mother who challenges his convictions and his heart. Using real footage shot during the convention, THIS REVOLUTION gives a human face to radical political groups and the government's reaction to them.
