Cast

Release

The film had its world premiere at the Berlin Film Festival on February 12, 2011.[3] and screened at SXSW on March 13, 2011.[4] The film was released in a limited release by Factory25 on October 28, 2011.[5]

Reception

Richard Brody of the "New Yorker" named it the 9th best film of 2011 [6] Variety stated that the film "probably contains Swanberg's clearest exposition of his philosophy, yet its sad aimlessness, from the mouth of an unhappy director (played by the helmer), elicits only a begrudging pity."[7] In the AV Club, the review stated "Silver Bullets’ introspection feels earned", continuing "splinters into an ending that isn’t entirely satisfying, though a prologue and epilogue suggest these issues of control and the line between pretense and reality continue throughout one’s creative life" and gave a "B+" grade.[8] A New York Times reviewer concluded that the film "neither pleases the eye nor stimulates the mind. At one point Mr. Swanberg’s character announces that he couldn’t care less about getting good reviews. Whew, I feel so much better."[9]
