Entertainment Reviews:
The wan drama is enlivened by bursts of black comedy, some bits more effective than others, and though it ultimately disappoints, there's promise in the understated creepiness of Riley Stearns' debut feature.

Rating: 3/4 --
"Faults" is a richly-textured movie that concerns the weird space between thinking you know what you're doing, and actually knowing what you're doing.

Director Riley Stearns' new film is a conceptually adventurous black comedy about the world of cults, making for a metaphysical thriller that is captivating from the very start.

Cinemacy
While "Faults" glances at the narcissism of cult leaders, its most penetrating investigation is into the root emptiness within disciples, the desperate hunger to relinquish personal initiative.

New York Times
Its final reveal is the sort of beautiful Twilight Zone fillip you see coming only about 10 seconds before it arrives, and I recommend seeing the movie without reading anything further about it: The payoff is that good.

By the time the film gets where it's going, viewers may identify more than they expect with those who've been controlled by others with hidden agendas.
