HollywoodChicago.com film review: 'Paranoid Park' from cult director Gus Van Sant

HollywoodChicago.com film critic Patrick McDonald says in his 3.5 out of 5.0 review of the new film “Paranoid Park” from cult director Gus Van Sant:

The film is told in bursts of flashback, flash forward and even flash sideways all framed in a dream-world sense. The slow-motion theatrics of skater tricks are particularly beautiful and almost a flight from the reality of the cruel teen years.
