Watch Red Flag Movie Online No Survey A laugh-out-loud road trip comedy, starring writer/director Alex Karpovsky ("Girls," TINY FURNITURE) as Alex Karpovsky, a newly-single indie filmmaker who hits the road with an old friend (Onur Tukel) to promote one of his films. As the pair travels from one half-empty theater to the next, pursued by an adoring fan (Jennifer Prediger) who drives them into an exceptionally uncomfortable love triangle, Alex-as-Alex is forced to suffer an endless series of humiliations, each one more absurd than the last.

Review For Red Flag |
Alex Karpovsky picks at a navel better left ungazed. Peter Debruge-Variety
In an era when awkwardness is the new self-confidence, the director manages to be palpably neurotic without trying too hard. Sara Stewart-New York Post
If it's all reasonably familiar indie-comedy terrain, it's delivered at a brisk, economical clip with plenty of laughs, and a series of running gags that keep getting funnier. Andrew O'Hehir-Salon.com
If only "Red Flag" were funnier and tighter and had a sharper idea about what it means to blur the lines between self-interrogation and self-absorption. Rachel Saltz-New York Times
Karpovsky's anxiety-ridden shtick here combines the crippling doubt and self-loathing of many Woody Allen protagonists with the obnoxious solipsism of Larry David. Ian Buckwalter-NPR
Owing a debt to Albert Brooks' early comedies, "Red Flag" might be too much if it weren't just right. Joe Neumaier-New York Daily News
Starring roles in two of his own micro-budget indie films suggest a future that won't involve lattes or Lena Dunham. Greg Evans-Bloomberg News
It surprisingly abandons its obvious meta elements and unfolds as a straightforward road-trip flick, opting for an exhibition of self-loathing rather than self-reflexivity. Nick McCarthy-Slant Magazine
Modest, personal, and nicely proportioned, Red Flag resembles one of Hong Sang-soo's self-reflexive doodles about relationships and filmmaking-Oki's Movie, in particular-and it wisely doesn't take too big a bite. Scott Tobias-AV Club
You can see genuine talent poking through the festival-circuit tedium; hopefully Karpovsky's better instincts will win out next time. Keith Uhlich-Time Out New York
This could be a recipe for excessive self-indulgence, but the meta quality of "Red Flag" is entirely irrelevant to its low key charm and persistent irreverence -- anchored, as always, by Karpovsky's loopy screen presence. Eric Kohn-indieWIRE
Karpovsky is an engaging screen presence, doing comic artistic neurosis in "Red Flag"..an explosion of work from an intriguing filmmaker. Marshall Fine-Hollywood & Fine
Establishes Karpovsky as the Woody Allen of the digital media generation: As he presents himself here, he is as self-absorbed as Allen, but his comfort with new technology results in a lo-fi video diary that the perfectionist Allen would eschew. John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
...your tolerance for Karpovsky himself, who has appeared in several Lena Dunham projects, will determine your appreciation; based on an informal survey, I find him more amusing than most. Luke Y. Thompson-Houston Press
When Red Flag really hits its stride, which happens somewhat late in its second act, it becomes the film it should be through and through -- a funny, well-observed, keenly acted feature about drama, trauma, and second chances. Kate Erbland-Film School Rejects
