T-METER
/
 
"Too portentous, overheated, flashy, derivative and implausible for its own good." -- Time Out
Posted May 12, 2008
 
El Mar (2000)n/a
/
 
"The comedy sits uneasily with the admittedly efficient action scenes, although at least here we have none of the usual Brooks sermonising to dilute the brew." -- Time Out
Posted Apr 8, 2008
 
Dollars (1972)80%
/
 
"Despite winning several Oscars, Olivier's (condensed) version of Shakespeare's masterpiece makes for frustrating viewing." -- Time Out
Posted Feb 20, 2008
 
Hamlet (1948)92%
/
2/6
 
"The songs are poor, the faddishness (folk parading books passim, à la Godard) and Garrel’s performance are irritating, and only Chiara Mastroianni as a grieving sister brings any real sense of conviction to her role." -- Time Out
Posted Dec 13, 2007
 
Les Chansons d'Amour (2007)38%
/
 
"At heart it's a terribly anguished expression of rejection, loneliness and love. If only it knew when to stop." -- Time Out
Posted Aug 16, 2007
 
A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001)72%
/
2/6
 
"Be thankful it’s not longer; at 80 minutes, one may still derive some perverse pleasure from the silliness of it all." -- Time Out
Posted Jul 6, 2007
 
Edmond (2006)46%
/
 
"The film’s watchable enough if you’re indulgent of its flaws but at 167 minutes it does tax the patience." -- Time Out
Posted Feb 15, 2007
 
The Good Shepherd (2006)56%
/
 
"It all moves along in a rather efficient if lifeless fashion, with only John Williams shining as a canny police detective." -- Time Out
Posted Jan 4, 2007
 
Dial M for Murder (1954)79%
/
 
"The humour’s less hit than miss, and a little of Castellitto’s melancholia goes a very long way. Disappointing." -- Time Out
Posted Nov 29, 2006
 
The Wedding Director (2008)43%
/
 
"Overly reliant on a weak lead performance, it drags so much that you’re left almost wanting the bomb to go off." -- Time Out
Posted Oct 30, 2006
 
Day Night Day Night (2007)71%
/
 
"As often with Antonioni, a film riddled with moments of brilliance and scuppered by infuriating pretensions." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Blow-Up (1966)85%
/
 
"Another problem, these days, is Pacino's characterisation; he seems at times more like a misplaced hippy than a plainclothes cop." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Serpico (1973)94%
/
 
"For all the praise heaped upon Oshima's admittedly ambitious film about East-West relations in the microcosm of a Japanese PoW camp during World War II, it's far less satisfactory than most of his earlier work." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence (1983)77%
/
 
"Carefully mounted, well directed and acted, but basically the sort of well-meaning pap out of which Oscars are made." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
The Life of Emile Zola (1937)68%
/
 
"By the time we get to the point where the camera is endlessly circling Shepard sitting on a sofa in the middle of the street, it feels as if he and his director were making things up as they went along." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Don't Come Knocking (2006)42%
/
 
"Raucous, vulgar, over long." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942)92%
/
 
"Outrageously overrated at the cynical end of the Swinging Sixties." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Midnight Cowboy (1969)90%
/
 
"After nearly two hours the tension has evaporated, and all that's left is a curdle of jokes and brutality." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Time After Time (1979)85%
/
 
"It certainly has the courage of its convictions." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Leaving Las Vegas (1995)90%
/
 
"While the anatomical special effects are imaginative enough, the manic rather than magical tone fails to achieve the sense of awe that made Fantastic Voyage -- clearly this film's inspiration -- so fascinating." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Innerspace (1987)79%
/
 
"Filling out and greying at the temples, Van Damme is far from convincing, even in the tedious fight sequences." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Universal Soldier: The Return (1999)6%
/
 
"A few flaws undermine the moral, political and dramatic force of the filmmakers’ ‘argument.'" -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
The Road to Guantanamo (2006)86%
/
 
"Intriguing, eccentric, sporadically entertaining tosh (but tosh all the same)." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Shadow of the Vampire (2000)82%
/
 
"The fashionably fussy, funky veneer may convince some that the film's serious, but it's finally another chase pic, murky in detail, muddled in ideology and strangely predictable in dramatic thrust." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Minority Report (2002)92%
/
 
"Pretty warmed-over stuff, this future world of the terminal TV game shows, and director Glaser fails to muster much pace and punch." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
The Running Man (1987)63%
/
 
"A crude piece of work, spottily acted and directed." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
American Pie (1999)60%
/
 
"One of his quietest and least startling." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
This Land is Mine (1943)71%
/
 
"A surprise summer hit in the States, this is another film-making-by-numbers exercise in teenage wish-fulfilment." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
The Karate Kid (1984)88%
/
 
"Far from bad, but academic and -- for once with this director -- overlong." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
The Story of Marie and Julien (2003)50%
/
 
"Hoffman and Farrow awake to each other in a New York bed and interminably worry, via chat, fantasy, flashback and some trendy cultural reference, whether they should do it again." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
John and Mary (1969)38%
/
 
"It often seems complacent and shallow." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Pillow Talk (1959)92%
/
 
"The leads and their accomplices look dead glam, but it's never clear whether their vacuity is a deliberate strategy. Certainly Avary's style seems all for instant gratification." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
The Rules of Attraction (2002)43%
/
 
"Fundamentally, this is just further proof of Hollywood's untiring ability to reduce all science fiction to its most feeble stereotypes." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Logan's Run (1976)72%
/
 
"Hepburn is clearly awkward as the Cockney Eliza in the first half, and in general the adaptation is a little too reverential to really come alive." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
My Fair Lady (1964)94%
/
 
"A truly dire romantic melodrama." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
The Sandpiper (1965)13%
/
 
"A sad product of its times." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
The Thomas Crown Affair (1968)76%
/
 
"Tron never reaches a level of excitement commensurate with its effects budget." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Tron (1982)67%
/
 
"Only during a final procession does the old Kurosawa magic get a brief look-in, but by then the hackneyed moralising and dramatic languor have ensured that, despite the well-meaning message, it's hard to care." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Dreams (1990)53%
/
 
"The leads are vacuous; the absurdities sometimes forced and obvious." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
The Princess Bride (1987)95%
/
 
"Unpleasant even by contemporary horror standards." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Dario Argento's Tenebre (1982)75%
/
 
"This might have been tailor-made by director Pollack to ease Ford into more straightforwardly romantic territory." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Random Hearts (1999)15%
/
 
"Parents beware: this film is too crude, violent and offensive for younger viewers." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Kangaroo Jack (2003)8%
/
 
"A wishy-washy, sanctimonious plea for tolerance, directed with Kramer's customary verbosity and stodginess." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Guess Who's Coming to Dinner? (1967)64%
/
 
"For hardcore Van Damme and Sparks fans only." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Knock Off (1998)6%
/
 
"Ambitious, efficient, sensitive, but a little disappointing." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Les Destinees (2002)61%
/
 
"Marshall betrays the dancing by never letting us see it properly." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Chicago (2002)87%
/
 
"If Reitman's film gets closer than most to covering the bases, there remain huge gaps in plausibility and a romantic subplot any ten-year-old could tell you is just plain icky." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Kindergarten Cop (1990)50%
/
 
"A little of the Wilsons goes a long way." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
The Wendell Baker Story (2007)44%
/
 
"Passable teen/sports movie." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
All the Right Moves (1983)55%
/
 
"Unendurable." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Richie Rich (1994)25%
