MPR News' The Cube Critics Stephanie Curtis and Euan Kerr agree that "Afternoon Delight" hits some high notes, but never realizes its potential.

Amid the 'dreck' (Stephanie's word) at the movie theater, she recommends director Mark Cousins 15-hour sojourn through movie history entitled "The Story of Film." Euan suggests giving Werner Herzog's eerie documentary "Grizzly Man" another look, especially with Minnesota bear researchers in the news.
