Auggie is at its best when Felix is vulnerable. The same goes for the actor playing Felix. Kind hasn’t been this good since A Serious Man. Read full review

Auggie isn’t “Her,” but it’s short enough to hold our interest, even if it’s not engrossing enough to manage anything more. Read full review

Auggie is purposefully grim in style and execution, moving at a snail's pace and seemingly photographed in drab shades of gray. Although its running time is a mere 81 minutes, the pic seems to last forever. Read full review
