“Cipa gracefully moves between genres, films, and television series, showing a patient focus on fine details” — Shawn Loht, Philosophy in Review (2025)

“...its themes are ideas so universal, and so deep, that it has a fair chance of finding an audience among nonspecialists. All it really requires of the reader is a love of film and television” — Bill Rothman, University of Miami

“...a very rewarding read. Cipa stretches our understanding and renews our appetite for thinking about cinema and television.” — Daniel Varndell, University of Winchester
