Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3.5/4 --
Mr. Giamatti, in a humble and winning performance, carries this witty film, with the help of a talented supporting cast - in particular, Dina Korzun, who plays a Russian soul mule with tough grace.

Washington Times
A trippy premise literally dreamed up by director Sophie Barthes, it is pensive and ponderous, offering a nod and wink to the likes of Philip K Dick and Charlie Kaufman. But it's also peculiarly remote.

Cold Souls is imitation Kaufman, written and directed by newcomer Sophie Barthes, who makes no effort to hide the source of her inspiration.

Rating: 2/5 --
Barthes' execution is flat, philosophically empty and mostly boring. But you can't call it soulless (no, not even when it's a zinger of a pun to finish the review with).

Fanciful tale is fun for grownups; won't appeal to kids.

Product Description:
With this surreal comedy set in a world where souls can be bought and sold, director Sophie Barthes makes an assured feature debut that should appeal to fans of Charlie Kaufman. Oscar-nominee Paul Giamatti stars as a version of himself, an actor who is stressed out over taking on the role of Uncle Vanya. To ease his pain, he has his soul temporarily removed, but it is taken by a Russian actress. Now Giamatti must trek eastward to get his soul back.
