FEVER (Variety)

Variety - A soul-searching Vanessa Redgrave brings credibility, as few actresses could, to Wallace Shawn's monologue about how a well-to-do Westerner comes to terms with world poverty, exploitation and Karl Marx, in "The Fever." Radical politics have rarely been debated so openly, though a cameo by Michael Moore in his first fictional role should give viewers a clue to the film's outspoken tone. The HBO Films banner, which has flown over successful experiments like "American Splendor" and "Elephant," should help position this hard-to-classify, stirringly performed but uneven film for limited theatrical release and many fest screenings.
