- synopsis: Canyon Cinema catalog 1992
- "...Breerworld is homey but tumultuous, filled with sudden shifts in scale or color, flash frame jolts, and a steady back beat of good-natured apocalypse...he towers over a field where gimmicks are common currency and cuteness is as virulent as malaria in the tropics... T.Z. offers a typically witty barrage of domestic imagery and eclectic technique." --J. Hoberman, American Film
"Within the film's brief length, numerous dramas take place, puzzling and enthralling us with their restless, enigmatic denouements." --B. Ruby Rich, Chicago Reader
"An elegant home movie, its subject is Breer's new apartment which faces the Tappan Zee (T.Z.) bridge. It is permeated, as are all his films, with subtle humor, eroticism and a sense of imminent chaos and catastrophe." --Amy Taubin, Art Forum
- synopsis: Light Cone 1996
- "Le monde de Breer est familier mais cependant tumultueux, plein de changements d'échelles, de couleurs, de flashes au rythme soutenu d'un apocalypse de bonne nature... Il domine un territoire où les artifices sont monnaie courante et la joliesse est comme la malaria des tropiques. T.Z. nous montre un assortiment d'images quotidiennes drolatiques et une panoplie de techniques diverses." Jim Hobberman.
"Un journal élégant et dont le sujet est le nouvel appartement de Breer qui fait face au pont Tappan Zee (T.Z.). Il est imbibé, comme tous ses autres films, d'un humour, d'un érotisme et d'un sens imminent du chaos et de catastrophes à venir." Amy Taubin.
