May 3, 2002 -- The Los Angeles reviews are in for REVOLUTION OS. Film Critic Kevin Thomas of The Los Angeles Times writes that the film is "...witty" with a "...brisk pace." The LA Weekly states: "The filmmaker...evinces a fine sense of framing, montage, color and pace; shot on 35mm, Revolution OS is aesthetically pleasing, briskly involving and, for a movie about tech theories, surprisingly charming."
