"Liam Neeson lends visibility to formulaic human-trafficking action thriller."
Posted Feb 26, 2008
 
Taken (2008)n/a
/
 
"By scrupulously avoiding melodrama, [director] Kalin ensures that the characters remain recognizably human despite their flaws and monstrous weaknesses."
Posted May 25, 2007
 
Savage Grace (2008)42%
/
 
"Succeeds reasonably well in achieving what many said was beyond the scope of cinema: conveying the world of scent and smell."
Posted Oct 19, 2006
 
Perfume: The Story of a Murderer (2006)56%
/
 
"A love story with star actors and a bigger budget heightens the mainstream appeal of Tony Gatlif's ethnic road musical."
Posted Oct 18, 2006
 
Transylvania (2006)69%
/
 
"[Bailliu's] corrosive humor will endear the movie to all those who enjoy the sight of the French behaving badly."
Posted Sep 28, 2006
 
Fair Play (2006)n/a
/
 
"Najac purports to be a call to arms against globalization. In fact it is a celebration rather than a manifesto, a wry shrug at the contradictions involved in living off the land in the digital age, and all the more enjoyable for that."
Posted May 26, 2006
 
Najac Calling Over to You, Earth (2006)n/a
/
 
"Student friendships, success and failure make for absorbing entertainment."
Posted May 20, 2006
 
Poison Friends (2007)88%
/
 
"Bled is a finely observed slice of life shot in a low-key semi-documentary style. The latest in a run of French-made movies dealing with Franco-Algerian cross-currents, it speaks volumes about the conditions of life in today's Algeria."
Posted May 18, 2006
 
Bled Number One (2006)n/a
/
 
"A vivid tableau of a world that, as the filmmakers note in their closing sequences, is under threat."
Posted Apr 19, 2006
 
La Plančte blanche (2006)50%
/
 
"While lightheartedness is not a quality one readily associates with Blier, the movie is more frankly entertaining than most of his previous work."
Posted Dec 5, 2005
 
Combien tu m'aimes? (2005)60%
/
 
"Murky but absorbing."
Posted Oct 11, 2005
 
Grey Souls (2005)n/a
/
 
"Chereau spoils it all by frequently resorting to trivial mannerisms, slipping gratuitously into black and white, using freeze frames, slow motion or sudden fades to white and inserting silent movie-style titles."
Posted Sep 24, 2005
 
Gabrielle (2005)75%
/
 
"The quest format keeps the story moving briskly, and Jeunet provides numerous pleasures, particularly visual, along the way."
Posted Nov 10, 2004
 
A Very Long Engagement (2004)77%
