BLAST!
“Paul Devlin has been involved with two of the better documentaries of the ‘00s: Power Trip and Freestyle: The Art of Rhyme.  Devlin comes away from his globe-hopping scientific adventure with a lot of terrific footage of giant balloons rising from barren landscapes, and stressed-out theoreticians nervously watching their fragile, expensive equipment scrape across ice floes.” – Noel Murray, The Onion

 

SlamNation
SlamNation is as much about cutthroat competition and unforgettable characters as it is about poetry, and that’s ultimately what makes it entertaining…” – Nathan Rabin, The Onion

 

Power Trip
“Devlin addresses an impossible quagmire with sympathy for supplier and consumer alike, showing how they all work in good faith to drag Georgia into the 21st century. Ominous coda aside, the film is that rarest of rarities: a portrait of corporate responsibility.”
Scott Tobias, The Onion

 

Freestyle: The Art of Rhyme
“Affectionate, wildly entertaining…Boasts a loose, spontaneous, free-flowing feel that’s perfectly suited to the sharp-witted improvisation and brash gamesmanship at its subject’s heart.” – Nathan Rabin, The Onion
