3/5	"Hollywoodland works best -- as a cold look at the entertainment industry's obsession with youth and the fatality brought on by an errant wrinkle or gray hair, impressively encapsulated by Diane Lane�s strong showing as the past-her-prime." Posted Sep 8, 2006	Hollywoodland (2006)	69%
1/5	"Clerks II would make for an appropriate end to Smith's lackluster career." Posted Jul 21, 2006	Clerks II (2006)	63%
3.5/5	"Keating, who has shot for the Maysles brothers and Barbara Kopple, amasses an impressive amount of evidence to bolster his claims, allowing the relative dryness of his style to be overshadowed by the revelatory nature of his research." Posted May 12, 2006	Giuliani Time (2006)	85%
2.5/5	"Rae borrows a bit heavily from the Oliver Stone school of filmmaking: Quick cuts of seemingly random footage do more to draw attention to a possible dearth of relevant background materials than to evoke ideas of Native American history and struggle." Posted Feb 24, 2006	Trudell (2006)	31%
1/5	"Full of weak whimsy, woefully unsuccessful tries at humor and awkwardness from first scene to last, Casanova must have been a disaster from the script stage, and Hallstrom's unsteady decisions only speed up the free fall." Posted Dec 21, 2005	Casanova (2005)	42%
3.5/5	"A message film delivered with subtlety and grace, not allowing its weighty subject matter to overshadow the quiet dignity of its characters." Posted Oct 22, 2005	Loggerheads (2005)	71%
3/5	"The missed opportunities are impossible to ignore." Posted Oct 21, 2005	Three of Hearts: A Postmodern Family (2005)	78%
2/5	"Games of Love and Chance plays like a French version of Jim McKay's Our Song. But, unlike McKay's superior American version, Kechiche is unable to transform the everyday lives of his characters into something meaningful." Posted Sep 1, 2005	Games of Love and Chance (2005)	76%
3/5	"Well-crafted and sufficiently disturbing." Posted Aug 26, 2005	The Constant Gardener (2005)	84%
3.5/5	"Bitton slyly layers numerous interviews with locals atop the visuals, infusing each scene with an unexpectedly potent context." Posted Aug 26, 2005	The Wall (2004)	70%
5/5	"[A] memorable portrait of one man's immeasurable passion for preservation." Posted Jul 28, 2005	Monumental: David Brower's Fight for Wild America (2005)	80%
1/5	"The film presents its lofty goals as transparently as its publicity materials, its clunky dialogue and diminished production value adding to its inordinate lack of sophistication." Posted Jul 18, 2005	The Reception (2005)	71%
2/5	"A tepid startle-fest, with fairly run-of-the-mill scares that leave no lasting impression." Posted Jul 10, 2005	Dark Water (2005)	45%
4/5	"Browne's film succeeds on numerous levels, in no small part because he admirably balances the slow-pitch, flyover-state silliness of bowling with a genuine appreciation of the inherent tensions and rivalries in a professional spectator sport." Posted Jun 2, 2005	League of Ordinary Gentlemen (2005)	91%
3/5	"Double Dare remains an entertaining and informative look at a little-known struggle for equality and respect in a physically unforgiving but completely vital Hollywood discipline." Posted May 21, 2005	Double Dare (2005)	97%
4/5	"The courage, curiosity and perhaps partial insanity of the explorers -- not to mention the film crew -- are admirable, as their trials and tribulations yield stunning images galore." Posted Feb 18, 2005	Mystery of the Nile (2005)	69%
1/5	"A film with remarkably little to recommend it." Posted Dec 5, 2004	You I Love (2005)	33%
2.5/5	"[Loach] sheds little new light on the inevitable clashes between parents rooted to their native culture and their Western-influenced offspring." Posted Nov 29, 2004	A Fond Kiss (2004)	87%
1.5/5	"A poor script, occasionally baffling editing, and actors who cannot rise above the various missteps combine to make A Silent Love a messy, confusing debut that more resembles a student film than a theatrical release." Posted Oct 28, 2004	A Silent Love (2004)	94%
3/5	"No doubt it's a strong case. Why, then, does it feel so unconstructive?" Posted Sep 10, 2004	Hijacking Catastrophe (2004)	83%
2.5/5	"Kampmeier reveals her inexperience as a feature filmmaker, and her effort struggles with the weight of its own subject matter and final ambiguities." Posted Sep 5, 2004	Virgin (2003)	40%
2.5/5	"*The overtly cerebral, surreal motifs of Gozu* distract from Miike's potent -- and seriously twisted -- analyses of women and sex.*" Posted Aug 8, 2004*	Gozu (2004)	72%
2.5/5	"Aside from a few brief glimmers of hope or happiness, director Barbara Albert piles her compilation of abject misery a bit too high." Posted Jul 23, 2004	Free Radicals (2004)	63%
4/5	"The film's indisputable overall message is chilling no matter what side of the debate you're on: Some innocent men almost died for crimes for which they were wrongly convicted, so maybe some other innocent men actually did die." Posted Jun 5, 2004	Deadline (2004)	93%
2.5/5	"The final product feels frustratingly incomplete." Posted Jun 4, 2004	I'll Sing For You (2004)	59%
2/5	"Fails to ignite much emotion." Posted May 21, 2004	Union Square (2003)	50%
2/5	"A humdrum coming-of-age piece." Posted May 7, 2004	Valentin (2004)	59%
2.5/5	"Largely a documentary filmmaker, Masud may need a few more features under his belt before his work has a consistent flow." Posted Apr 30, 2004	The Clay Bird (2004)	89%
1/5	"Marathon contains nothing more than its thin premise." Posted Apr 3, 2004	Marathon (2004)	53%
3/5	"*Offers considerably more insight into the conceptions of real and artificial intelligence and emotion than the immensely overrated debacle that is AI: Artificial Intelligence." Posted Feb 13, 2004*	Robot Stories (2004)	71%
3/5	"An interesting doc, if only because it serves to introduce the work of a gifted, unique artist to those of us who have found little good to say about the 1980s and the excesses they produced." Posted Nov 26, 2003	The Legend of Leigh Bowery (2003)	91%
4/5	"By merely capturing the seemingly simple images of work and play, human and synthetic, Palfi constantly juxtaposes the natural and industrial realms to startling effect." Posted Nov 26, 2003	Hukkle (2002)	100%
1.5/5	"Lightheartedness is one thing, but trivializing cheating while failing to do so with humor or creativity makes for an unsuccessful if not unseemly film." Posted Aug 29, 2003	The Other Side of the Bed (2003)	45%
3/5	"Has a refreshingly simple look and feel; shots are not intricately choreographed, and there are no perfectly placed musical cues to garishly indicate where a laugh, cry or gasp is requested." Posted Aug 22, 2003	Suddenly (2003)	95%
3.5/5	"Unsettling." Posted Jul 22, 2003	The Embalmer (2003)	81%
3/5	"Oddly nostalgic." Posted Jun 28, 2003	Hell's Highway: The True Story of Highway Safety Films (2003)	75%
2.5/5	"*As beautiful as it often is to watch, Coral Reef Adventure* ultimately comes off as a bit too kid-friendly and faux-inspirational, which is kind of a drag.*" Posted Jun 7, 2003*	Coral Reef Adventure (2002)	90%
2.5/5	"As with most porn, viewing this smut for over an hour straight is not the most exciting way to spend one's time." Posted Jun 3, 2003	The Good Old Naughty Days (2003)	75%
2.5/5	"Akerman spends so much time capturing non-events, albeit picturesquely, she misses out on the opportunity to delve deeper into the plights of the people themselves." Posted Apr 11, 2003	From the Other Side (2003)	57%

3.5/5	"*It's the included portions of Deren's films that are the best part of In the Mirror of Maya Deren." Posted Jan 24, 2003*	In the Mirror of Maya Deren (2003)	94%
2/5	"*It's always disappointing when a documentary fails to live up to -- or offer any new insight into -- its chosen topic. Unfortunately, that's precisely what Arthur Dong's Family Fundamentals* does.*" Posted Oct 20, 2002*	Arthur Dong: Family Fundamentals ()	75%
3.5/5	"Thoughtful, intelligent film." Posted Oct 20, 2002	Talk to Her (2002)	92%
3/5	"Charles' entertaining film chronicles Seinfeld's return to stand-up comedy after the wrap of his legendary sitcom, alongside wannabe comic Adams' attempts to get his shot at the big time." Posted Oct 13, 2002	Comedian (2002)	77%
3.5/5	"Reinforces the often forgotten fact of the world's remarkably varying human population and mindset, and its capacity to heal using creative, natural and ancient antidotes." Posted Aug 18, 2002	Ayurveda: The Art of Being (2001)	62%
3.5/5	"When placed in its cultural context and presented as a reawakening of spirit in youngish widow ... belly dancing becomes not a cringe-worthy, faux-authentic gimmick but much more an expression of personal freedom and passion." Posted Aug 18, 2002	Satin Rouge (2002)	83%
3/5	"Gui Zi's unassuming, unpretentious script rolls along nicely, but it's Bensham and Jie who, along with the supporting cast, really raise the bar here." Posted Jul 2, 2002	Happy Times (2002)	72%
