	"If the human details are often problematic, the IMAX-grade bombast, ceremonial camera, and Jodorowsky-esque eclecticism still combine for a singular spectacle." -- Village Voice Posted May 7, 2008	The Fall (2008)	57%
	"The sense of storytelling intelligence is undeniable." -- Village Voice Posted May 7, 2008	Turn the River (2008)	79%
	"It takes a controlling hand to chisel something more contoured than monotony out of this dense angst, and director Luc�a Puenzo doesn't have it." -- Village Voice Posted Apr 30, 2008	XXY (2008)	71%
	"Seven Days is all fetishized decay and "daring" press-kit stuffing." -- Village Voice Posted Apr 23, 2008	Seven Days Sunday (2008)	n/a
	"Give up, old timers�the kids are all right." -- Village Voice Posted Apr 23, 2008	SqueezeBox! (2008)	n/a
	"Celebrating and singing the scene it records." -- Village Voice Posted Apr 23, 2008	Walden ()	n/a
	"This is the first collaboration between kung fu's Astaire and Kelly, and, as that, it disappoints." -- Village Voice Posted Apr 16, 2008	The Forbidden Kingdom (2008)	62%
	"Dark Matter's insights go no deeper than 'chickens coming home to roost' banality." -- Village Voice Posted Apr 8, 2008	Dark Matter (2008)	34%
	"Reynolds, called to 180 from anal nebbish to feral beast, is beautifully committed, but he gets no help on the other side of the camera." -- Village Voice Posted Apr 8, 2008	Chaos Theory (2008)	30%
	"Completing the convergence of rare young talents is the 27-year-old French director C�line Sciamma." -- Village Voice Posted Apr 2, 2008	Water Lilies (2007)	83%
	"Stupid monikers are just one symptom of a stultifying, overwritten cleverness that substitutes quirk for character." -- Village Voice Posted Apr 2, 2008	Sex and Death 101 (2008)	26%
	"[Actor] Elio Germano vitalizes the film: He's hyper-reactive, flickering between brash, bashful, playful, and awkward -- offering a Swiss Army knife performance that's diverse and yet totally unified." -- Village Voice Posted Mar 25, 2008	My Brother is an Only Child (2008)	90%
	"Ricci is appealingly human, and some acknowledgement of the importance of female friendship, in addition to romance, is faintly touching." -- Village Voice Posted Feb 27, 2008	Penelope (2008)	53%
	"The cast is a museum exhibit on the nigh-extinct art of scaled-in American bit acting, with the magnificent Sylvia Sidney as the daughter of a prominent family brought low, her flashing pridefulness intact, and Tommy Noonan as a peeping poltroon." -- Village Voice Posted Feb 27, 2008	Violent Saturday (1955)	n/a
	"Mary Olive Smith and Amy Bucher feel no need to overlay this health-care calamity with pious outrage." -- Village Voice Posted Feb 5, 2008	Walk to Beautiful, A (2008)	88%
	"So objectively awful it ceases even to be a reflection of writer-director Andrews Jenkins's non-talent, How to Rob a Bank calls into question the distribution filtration process that should protect delicate consumer eyes from things like this." -- Village Voice Posted Feb 5, 2008	How to Rob a Bank (2008)	9%
	"This is no career high, but it's impossible to actively dislike Rudd." -- Village Voice Posted Jan 31, 2008	Over Her Dead Body (2008)	13%
	"The prevalent shooting style is monotonous naturalism, as the camera buzzes between contentious actors and trolls after anything on the move." -- Village Voice Posted Jan 22, 2008	Lost in Beijing (2008)	47%
	"Without cheapening the suffering of American or Afghan, the film retrieves the torture issue from the realm of the abstract and gives the plain facts of this world right now. As long as we still care about people and power, they will matter." -- Village Voice Posted Jan 15, 2008	Taxi to the Dark Side (2008)	100%
	"Morgan butchers me every time with that overemphatic- delivery thing that makes incidental lines multiplex-leveling funny." -- Village Voice Posted Jan 8, 2008	First Sunday (2008)	15%
	"Anker's excavated some remarkable stuff here..." -- Village Voice Posted Dec 18, 2007	Imaginary Witness: Hollywood and the Holocaust (2007)	86%
	"The film avoids potentially interesting frictions by always letting the team debate (and win) on the 'correct' side of every issue -- that which aligns with generally accepted modern liberal sympathies." -- Village Voice Posted Dec 18, 2007	The Great Debaters (2007)	79%
	"Persepolis is a small landmark in feature animation." -- Village Voice Posted Dec 18, 2007	Persepolis (2007)	95%
	"Lamentable scenes include that comic relief stand-by, the Bad Date Montage, but the movie comes off better than it should by virtue of Benhamou and (especially) Lister-Jones, appealing and modest young actors who create a plausible central relationship," -- Village Voice Posted Dec 11, 2007	Arranged (2007)	67%
	"One incredible tale: As independence gains a foothold, a crowd of USSR-loyal reactionaries storms the capitol building in Tallinn. The trapped officials...radio an S.O.S. to the Estonian public -- and the People actually show up." -- Village Voice Posted Dec 11, 2007	The Singing Revolution (2007)	86%
	"One incredible tale." -- L.A. Weekly Posted Dec 6, 2007	The Singing Revolution (2007)	86%
	"The film...is unkempt and sometimes awkward -- a homely, homemade labor of love that's loosely structured as an investigative procedural." -- Village Voice Posted Dec 4, 2007	'Tis Autumn - The Search for Jackie Paris (2007)	92%
	"Revolver disappoints." -- Village Voice Posted Dec 4, 2007	Revolver (2007)	16%
	"Writer-director Michael Schroeder compulsively references canonical films and books, presumably in the hope that genius rubs off." -- Village Voice Posted Dec 4, 2007	Man in the Chair (2007)	50%
	"Chronicle might be utterly uncompromising in its "you are there" visceral style�or just unresourceful. I tend toward the latter reading." -- Village Voice Posted Nov 28, 2007	Chronicle of an Escape (2007)	60%
	"There's not much, finally, to lift this thing above its necessarily niche appeal." -- Village Voice Posted Nov 27, 2007	The Rocket (2007)	56%
	"It's no revolution, but comic-pastoral traditionalism refined to its essence." -- Village Voice Posted Nov 13, 2007	The Whole Shootin' Match (1979)	n/a
	"[A] deeply amoral morality tale." -- Village Voice Posted Nov 6, 2007	Divorce, Italian Style (1962)	100%
	"Though the storytelling is haphazard, artistry often transcends mere good intentions." -- Village Voice Posted Nov 6, 2007	Holly (2007)	62%
	"*If you evaluate Darfur Now* against the goals it sets for itself -- as a stirring call to action -- it must be considered lacking.*" -- L.A. Weekly* Posted Nov 2, 2007	Darfur Now (2007)	69%
	"The argument can be made that the subject's urgency excuses the need for artfulness; the opposite, of course, is true." -- Village Voice Posted Oct 30, 2007	Darfur Now (2007)	69%
	"This is great filmmaking in the sense that overplayed virtuoso guitar shredding is great music -- which is to say, not at all." -- Village Voice Posted Oct 23, 2007	The Living and the Dead (2006)	90%
	"This is the barbaric yawp of the Soviet film industry circa 1968, an entertainment A-bomb test announcing to the world: 'Here is what we are capable of.'" -- Village Voice Posted Oct 16, 2007	War and Peace (1968)	100%
	"*Beneath the 1950�s seemingly placid exterior of Ozzie and Harriet* normalcy, there were -- brace yourself! -- sinister undercurrents at work.*" -- Village Voice* Posted Oct 16, 2007	The Girl Next Door (2007)	62%
	"The rebellion never achieves the mythopoeic visual potency it strives for; while passably adopting several familiar modes of art-house style... Khadak doesn't exhibit full, dynamic fluency in any of them." -- Village Voice Posted Oct 9, 2007	Khadak (2006)	64%
	"*Helpless with comedy, heavily reliant on coincidence, and out of step with all current cinematic vogue, We Own the Night* finally resonates as a beautiful, dolorous nocturne.*" -- Village Voice* Posted Oct 9, 2007	We Own The Night (2007)	55%
	"Hard as it is to believe that anyone thinks the comic possibilities of polyester arrow collars haven't been thoroughly strip-mined, those are the primary source of ostensible laffs here." -- Village Voice Posted Oct 2, 2007	Finishing the Game (2007)	33%
	"A remarkable confluence of talents are at work here." -- Village Voice Posted Sep 27, 2007	The 400 Blows (1959)	100%
	"Achieves something more resonant than a Solemn Affirmation of the Immortal Spirit of Art." -- Village Voice Posted Sep 18, 2007	Forever (2007)	91%
	"The film is most enamored, naturally, with the era of its subject's greatest influence, the '50s..." -- Village Voice Posted Sep 11, 2007	Toots (2007)	100%
