"Compelling, frequently funny and, commendably, resists wrapping things up sentimentally. Nice Manu Chao soundtrack, too." -- Time Out

"A lovely little comedy-drama." -- Time Out

"Not one he'll be remembered for, but a cut above." -- Little White Lies
Posted Jul 20, 2007
 
Private Fears in Public Places (2007)79%
/
 
"Charting the thin line between courage and foolhardiness, it’s a poignant portrayal of the excruciating emotional odyssey of all involved." -- Time Out
Posted Jul 14, 2007
 
Deep Water (2007)96%
/
 
"With its riffs on art, its split-in-half story and Goya-esque production design, you can see it reaching for grand ideas about actions and their reverberations, but it merely rumbles on, illuminating neither the artist nor his tumultuous times." -- Time Out
Posted May 3, 2007
 
Goya's Ghosts (2007)28%
/
 
"With exquisite performances (Giamatti’s, in particular), it leaves you thrillingly hovering, happily uncommitted to any one interpretation." -- Time Out
Posted Feb 28, 2007
 
The Illusionist (2006)75%
/
 
"You long for more context on both workers and project, though a breathtaking five-minute-plus helicopter shot along the snaking concrete-and-iron colossus at the close helps distract from any moans." -- Time Out
Posted Feb 3, 2007
 
In The Pit (2007)71%
/
 
"The intrusive narration, from hip hopper Chris ‘Ludacris’ Bridges, offers little sense of real lives unfolding, more of a way being paved to an, admittedly tense, all-American triumph-over-adversity climax." -- Time Out
Posted Dec 30, 2006
 
The Heart of the Game (2006)86%
/
 
"It's enjoyably rousing, and cinematographer Lars Vestergard works miracles turning the Danish countryside into bright slices of Americana." -- Time Out
Posted Nov 16, 2006
 
We Shall Overcome (2006)83%
/
3/6
 
"An existential nightmare of grief, guilt and penance, with Guillermo Nieto’s sublime photography of the frozen, otherworldly landscape a correlative to Santiago’s suspended state." -- Time Out
Posted Oct 28, 2006
 
Born and Bred (2006)100%
/
 
"Petersen’s expert direction ensures it remains gripping, keeping the tension ratcheted right up and commendably steering it all home within 100 minutes." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Poseidon (2006)33%
/
 
"The settings and tone are hyper-real, yet the human behaviour is grounded and credible, the moral conflicts complex and involving. Shiny, intelligent fun." -- Time Out
Posted Jun 24, 2006
 
Serenity (2005)82%
/
 
"It’s a masterpiece that tangles individual and social ills into a knot, which, as we’re warned in an opening voiceover, it offers no easy way to untie, rousing a sickening sense of injustice." -- Time Out
Posted Feb 9, 2006
 
Los Olvidados (1950)93%
/
 
"This ambitious but frustrating timeshift thriller never quite manages to jam together two distinct stories." -- Time Out
