"... displays sinuous cutting between live action and animated images, rapid-fire associations and transformations, freedom in collaging the everyday with the imaginary in sound and image, and a diabolical moment of synthesis at the climax when the rat trap is sprung. ... Breer is easily the greatest animator currently practicing." - Amy Taubin, The Soho Weekly News
"... a typically bravura and delightful display of simple objective forms flashing, rotating, and dissolving into abstraction ...." - J. Hoberman, The Village Voice
