In Search of a Midnight Kiss (2008)100%
/
3.5/5
 
"Portraying moments of drama and danger with a Hitchcockian lack of ceremony, Shyamalan's mundane depictions of tragedy create a quiet but weighty resonance." -- Boxoffice Magazine

Dare Not Walk Alone (2008)100%
/
3.5/5

Chaos Theory (2008)29%
/
3/5

Posted Apr 11, 2008
 
Smart People (2008)49%
/
3/5

On Broadway (2008)n/a
/

"As volatile as the subject matter is here, Liberty Kid is shockingly subtle. Massive aspects about the relationship between Tico and Derrick are only inferred and the performances of the leads are really quite good." -- Boxoffice Magazine

Forever (2007)92%
/
4.5/5
 
"Hershman-Leeson’s film amply lives up to the task of exposing and criticizing this governmental wrong that typifies the current context of paranoia while also highlighting the massive divide that continues to grow between art and government." -- Boxoffice Magazine
