B
 
"An honest vocalization of the inchoate discomfort so many Americans on either side of the political divide are feeling." -- Film Experience
Posted May 15, 2008
 
Stop-Loss (2008)65%
/
 
"Theron sneaks out the door roughly 1/2 an hour into the picture. What is the movie to do without her energy?" -- Film Experience
Posted May 15, 2008
 
Sleepwalking (2008)19%
/
 
"What's most interesting is the correlations drawn between the diminutive director and the infamous judge who presided over the case like an auteur of the courtroom" -- Film Experience
Posted May 15, 2008
 
Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired (2008)85%
/
 
"a rather ignominious defeat for a "comeback" performance from one of the great stars" -- Film Experience
Posted May 15, 2008
 
I Could Never Be Your Woman (2008)60%
/
 
"Few films this year were as magnificent looking and few as misunderstood." -- Film Experience
Posted May 15, 2008
 
Atonement (2007)83%
/
B-
 
"Funny, sweet and often interesting... but the desperation is so tangible it proves exhausting" -- Film Experience
Posted May 15, 2008
 
Anvil! The Story of Anvil (2009)n/a
/
A
 
"It's often incorrectly reduced to a feminist fable, but the scope of Jane Campion's achievement is broader. If anything The Piano is a masterwork of humanism." -- Film Experience
Posted May 15, 2008
 
The Piano (1993)89%
/
D+
 
"Should my life flash before my eyes before my demise, I am certain that movie scenes will appear. I only ask that this movie not be included in the edit." -- Film Experience
Posted May 15, 2008
 
The Life Before Her Eyes (2008)26%
/
C+
 
"Messy and undisciplined, if at least always itself. But isn't this a more suitable aesthetic for an imaginary movie version of Marvel's 'Dazzler'" -- Film Experience
Posted May 15, 2008
 
Speed Racer (2008)36%
/
B-
 
"a fun night at the movies but unfortunately disposable" -- Film Experience
Posted May 15, 2008
 
Iron Man (2008)93%
/
 
"Tim Burton's most focused, alert and satisfying film since Ed Wood" -- Film Experience
Posted Dec 22, 2007
 
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007)86%
/
 
"Things I never expected to see in a major motion picture..." -- Film Experience
Posted Dec 7, 2007
 
Beowulf (2007)69%
/
 
"Fans of the book may be thrilled to see it come to life but this tentative film demands a tougher minded, more confident sequel." -- Film Experience
Posted Dec 7, 2007
 
The Golden Compass (2007)41%
/
 
"The macro eye closeup that opens this spectacular film (newly scrubbed and polished) is a perfect statement for the movie, human but abstract: unconnected to a face." -- Film Experience
Posted Oct 11, 2007
 
Blade Runner - The Final Cut (1982)97%
/
 
"less cloying and superficial than other movies of its subgenre and directed with true showman's flair." -- Film Experience
Posted Oct 11, 2007
 
The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (2007)94%
/
 
"the multiple actor gimmick is fascinating to grapple with (as is the movies comparably shape-shifting visual identity) but it leads to an uneven ride" -- Film Experience
Posted Oct 11, 2007
 
I'm Not There (2007)78%
/
 
"as elaborate, silly and attention seeking as one of Elizabeth's feathery headdresses." -- Film Experience
Posted Oct 11, 2007
 
Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007)34%
/
 
"If ...Violence was Cronenberg's gift to Viggo Mortensen, unlocking the greatness of the rising star, consider this the actor's return favor. He's mesmerizing." -- Film Experience
Posted Sep 21, 2007
 
Eastern Promises (2007)88%
/
D+
 
"Following her first vigilante act, the movie starts hemorhagging IQ points and the faux hand wringing escalates. This movie never stops lying to itself" -- Film Experience
Posted Sep 14, 2007
 
The Brave One (2007)44%
/
 
"Pfeiffer rocks. The rest is merely rocky." -- Film Experience
Posted Aug 10, 2007
 
Stardust (2007)76%
/
 
"Becoming Jane isn't purposefully cynical but if you stop to consider it, it rather undermines Austen's great talent." -- Film Experience
Posted Aug 6, 2007
 
Becoming Jane (2007)57%
/
 
"a bitchy but endearing mix of comedy and melodrama. Norma Shearer holds the chaos together with improbable dignity." -- Film Experience
Posted Jul 20, 2007
 
The Women (1939)86%
/
 
"An elaborately perverse buffet served up at a pivotal moment in Hitchcock's career" -- Film Experience
Posted Jul 20, 2007
 
Rope (1948)97%
/
 
"A coming of age fable for both Disney and the mermaid heroine" -- Film Experience
Posted Jul 20, 2007
 
The Little Mermaid (1989)86%
/
 
"Kooky abandon and unembarassed chutzpah make it a movie nobody dared to love" -- Film Experience
Posted Jul 20, 2007
 
Xanadu (1980)41%
/
 
"Good morning Moviegoers. Each new Hairspray's an open door. Each new "Tracy" a fantasy Each new version a symphony" -- Film Experience
Posted Jul 20, 2007
 
Hairspray (2007)91%
/
 
"When you get a good view you'll probably be thrilled. But the thrills vanish with the next quick cut. There should have been more that met the eye." -- Film Experience
Posted Jul 4, 2007
 
Transformers (2007)57%
/
 
"My compliments to the chef Brad Bird. This writer/director has one of the best young filmographies in the world." -- Film Experience
Posted Jul 3, 2007
 
Ratatouille (2007)95%
/
 
"The best thing about it is the very thing that's most potentially maddening to moviegoers. Movies and TV offer US a steady diet of reductive emotional sensationalism but this one, like its protagonist, keeps a cool head even in horrific situations." -- Film Experience
Posted Jun 29, 2007
 
A Mighty Heart (2007)77%
/
 
"At first you can't believe that so much talent has been assembled. But by the end of this deathbed reverie you can't believe what they've done with that abundance." -- Film Experience
Posted Jun 27, 2007
 
Evening (2007)27%
/
A-
 
"Once owes its genuine immediacy to the blessed decision to capture its musicians in the flush of actual performance." -- Film Experience
Posted Jun 8, 2007
 
Once (2007)97%
/
 
"Cotillard's impersonation of Piaf at different ages is periodically moving but as a whole the performance is no great success. You can't connect the dots between these women. This teenager is this young star is this old woman?" -- Film Experience
Posted Jun 8, 2007
 
La Vie En Rose (2007)75%
/
B-
 
"doesn't add anything new to its routine equation but a hundred and thirteen minutes pass swiftly and fourteen actors have a good time -- an enjoyable, disposable lark" -- Film Experience
Posted Jun 8, 2007
 
Ocean's Thirteen (2007)70%
/
 
"Despite passages of comic lunacy lifted directly from the book, this is all curiously unfunny." -- Film Experience
Posted Oct 21, 2006
 
Running with Scissors (2006)29%
/
 
"Problematic at the center, but there's still pleasure to be had in watching the actresses navigate the emotional terrain." -- Film Experience
Posted Oct 20, 2006
 
Friends With Money (2006)71%
/
 
"Thoroughly entertaining, the competing character agendas are realized superbly by a cohesive ensemble." -- Film Experience
Posted Oct 20, 2006
 
The Departed (2006)92%
/
 
"Awkardly structured and too reminiscent of better films" -- Film Experience
Posted Oct 20, 2006
 
Flags of Our Fathers (2006)73%
/
 
"Frustrating but fascinating, with moments that refuse to be shrugged off" -- Film Experience
Posted Oct 20, 2006
 
The Black Dahlia (2006)35%
/
A
 
"With its wide vistas and sparse population of perfectly realized characters Brokeback Mountain manages to be both epic and intimate..." -- Film Experience
Posted Dec 1, 2005
 
Brokeback Mountain (2005)87%
/
 
"Mother is greedy. Pumpkin is naive. Sayuri is determined. Hatsumomo is angry. Mameha is wise. Etc..." -- Film Experience
Posted Nov 27, 2005
 
Memoirs of a Geisha (2005)35%
/
 
"Though Jonathan Larson's peculiarly powerful musical survives the many botched film elements, it's still a missed opportunity." -- Film Experience
Posted Nov 23, 2005
 
Rent (2005)48%
/
 
"For a film this potentially dry, it speeds along at an absorbing clip. David Strathairn is excellent." -- CineScene.com
Posted Nov 22, 2005
 
Good Night, And Good Luck (2005)94%
/
 
"A lot of righteous finger wagging along the way but many punches are pulled. More stylistic bark than substantive bite." -- CineScene.com
Posted Nov 22, 2005
 
The Constant Gardener (2005)84%
/
 
"Giggle inducing with a few truly high quality guffaws. In terms of silly joy, it's hard to beat." -- CineScene.com
Posted Nov 22, 2005
 
Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (2005)96%
/
 
"Laughs of discomfort or of the 'ewwww gross' variety are not really the same as good hearty laughs. You'll need a shower afterwards." -- CineScene.com
Posted Nov 22, 2005
 
The Aristocrats (2005)80%
/
 
"After the bloated hit-and-miss feel of many of Burton's recent live-action work it is a joy to experience this throwback to the glory days." -- CineScene.com
Posted Nov 22, 2005
 
Tim Burton's Corpse Bride (2005)84%
/
 
"Despite Charlize Theron's efforts to play more than a saintly martyr, the film's director Niki Caro continually overstates the case." -- Film Experience
Posted Nov 22, 2005
 
North Country (2005)68%
/
 
"Indiscriminately hostile..." -- Film Experience
Posted Nov 22, 2005
 
The Dying Gaul (2005)48%
/
 
"Be amazed at my cruel virility. Feel the pain. Oh yeah." -- Film Experience
Posted Nov 22, 2005
 
Oldboy (2005)82%
/
 
"A firebomb heaved at the short-term thinking of amoral US interference in global affairs, but as a film it lacks clarity and fires in too many directions at once." -- CineScene.com
Posted Nov 22, 2005
 
Syriana (2005)75%
