"Does Andrew Stanton's film amount to much more than a brilliant aesthetic exercise? I'm not convinced it does." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Jul 18, 2008
 
WALL-E (2008)96%
/
4/5
 
"A near-classic of 40s film noir." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Apr 8, 2008
 
The Killers (1946)100%

5/5

Posted Nov 23, 2007
 
Blade Runner - The Final Cut (1982)97%
/
3/5

A Crude Awakening: The Oil Crash (2006)79%
/
5/5
 
"Fresh as a daisy after all these years, Satyajit Ray's 1955 spellbinder comes underpinned by a tumultuous Ravi Shankar sitar and paints a ground's-eye portrait of life in an impoverished Bengali village." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Oct 24, 2007
 
Pather Panchali (1954)97%
/
3/5

Princess (2007)55%
/
4/5
 
"A soulful valentine to music, friendship and the joys of honest hard graft, played out in the bedsits and recording studios of a deglamourised Dublin." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Oct 19, 2007
 
Once (2007)97%
/
3/5
 
"The moral implications of this scheme are so charged and turbulent that they defy neat resolution. If the film's inhabitants are walking a tightrope, it occasionally seems that that its writer-director is too." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Oct 12, 2007
 
The Counterfeiters (2008)94%
/
5/5
 
"I loved Ratatouille. I was even tempted to drop the odd bit of popcorn, like tipping the waiter after a particularly good meal." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Oct 12, 2007
 
Ratatouille (2007)95%
/
5/5
 
"The film is so boldly conceived, richly textured and beautifully paced that its marathon running time feels more like a sprint." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Oct 6, 2007
 
The Sorrow and the Pity (1971)100%
/
4/5
 
"Check your cynicism at the door: Robert Wise's adaptation of the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical still has a little soul in its bones." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Sep 22, 2007
 
The Sound of Music (1965)83%
/
3/5
 
"Krzysztof Krauze's droll, unassuming little biopic stands as a fitting memorial to a life on the fringes." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Sep 14, 2007
 
My Nikifor (2004)86%
/
3/5
 
"Form and content in perfect harmony." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Sep 8, 2007
 
Reprise (2008)89%
/
4/5
 
"It is at once a coming-of-age comedy and a fond farewell to an era." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Sep 8, 2007
 
Withnail and I (1988)96%
/
3/5
 
"A pungent ghost story, evocatively played out in a creaking haunted house." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Aug 17, 2007
 
Fissures (2007)73%
/
3/5
 
"It looks tired, slightly soft in the middle, and yet there is a raw, hard-won honesty here that puts most contemporary US movies to shame." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Aug 10, 2007
 
The Walker (2007)52%
/
5/5
 
"If anything, Robert Altman's self-styled "anti-western" looks even richer, stranger and more daring than it did when it first appeared back in 1971." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted May 4, 2007
 
McCabe & Mrs. Miller (1971)89%
/
 
"Smart, subtle and excruciatingly honest." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Mar 16, 2007
 
Funny Ha Ha (2005)89%
/
3/5
 
"A vivid portrait of a town in crisis." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Jan 27, 2007
 
Right at Your Door (2007)68%
/
3/5
 
"Unconscious is relentlessly wacky but robustly performed..." -- Guardian [UK]
Posted Sep 23, 2006
 
Unconscious (2007)85%
/
 
"Harvey Pekar is not your average superhero. He's at once author and character, hero and victim, his life and his art the result of a perpetual two-way osmosis." -- Sight and Sound
Posted Jan 6, 2004
 
American Splendor (2003)94%
/
 
"A consistently bewitching experience." -- Sight and Sound
Posted Dec 2, 2002
 
Wonderland (2000)63%
/
 
"This is a picture by turns amusing and melancholic, sweet-centred and dark-edged." -- Sight and Sound
