	"Dog Star Man is a work of realism into which abstraction intrudes." -- PopMatters Posted Apr 29, 2008	Dog Star Man (1964)	100%
4/5	"What The Naked City does is paint an indelible vision of both the New York City that never sleeps and of the human life and industry that teems within it" -- Filmcritic.com Posted Mar 9, 2007	The Naked City (1948)	92%
3.5/5	"*I do recommend this almost charming* picture to those with an interest, sociological or otherwise, in the slippery boundaries of "hip." It's just too goofy.*" -- F5 (Wichita, KS)* Posted Feb 18, 2007	Hot Summer (1967)	n/a
2.5/5	"The fun I had was largely a matter of gauging what the filmmakers had, in the course of earnest imitation, gotten wrong." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Feb 18, 2007	Apaches (1973)	n/a
2/5	"the fun I had was largely a matter of gauging what the filmmakers had, in the course of earnest imitation, gotten wrong." -- Filmcritic.com Posted Feb 18, 2007	The Sons Of Great Bear (1966)	n/a
3/5	"Director Hermann Zschoche ... manages some formal narrative sophistication that, while not up to Tarkovsky's high par, nonetheless resonates with great success amid what's given" -- Filmcritic.com Posted Feb 18, 2007	Eolomea (1972)	n/a
2.5/5	"*Kerrigan, in the film's denouement, might have succeeded in defying our expectations to the extent that, as in The Sixth Sense, his victory renders what came before it superfluous." -- F5 (Wichita, KS)* Posted Feb 7, 2007	Clean, Shaven (1995)	92%
3/5	"With entertainment this cardboard and weightless, isn't a response like disappointment disproportionately complex?" -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Jan 30, 2007	Snakes on a Plane (2006)	69%
2/5	"I began to feel as if Stone were singling out the 'decent' people of America and making this story theirs alone." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Jan 19, 2007	World Trade Center (2006)	70%
2.5/5	"Coppola's disconnected her character from history to achieve this glittering surface and there's nothing else to which a viewer can hang on." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Jan 19, 2007	Marie Antoinette (2006)	54%
3.5/5	"A pulp classic ranking near the top of its particular post-Hays Code, pre-MPAA moment." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Jan 19, 2007	The Honeymoon Killers (1970)	94%
3.5/5	"a bracingly muckraking piece of filmmaking" -- Filmcritic.com Posted Nov 7, 2006	Hands Over The City (1963)	n/a
4.5/5	"At its least it's an impassioned indictment of those who would exploit the powerless and at best a call to arms." -- Filmcritic.com Posted Oct 14, 2006	Harlan County, USA (1976)	100%
5/5	"One of cinema's truly unique visions... animated with a new kind of screen life." -- Filmcritic.com Posted Oct 4, 2006	Playtime (1967)	100%
3.5/5	"The Lower Depths both gains and loses by its proximity to Renoir�s later masterpieces: It�s not one of them them, but the same guy made it." -- Filmcritic.com Posted Aug 30, 2006	The Lower Depths (1935)	83%
3.5/5	"*By comparison with the new Louise Hogarth documentary The Gift, the shenanigans of the best fictional horror films seem like child's play." -- Filmcritic.com* Posted Jun 28, 2006	The Gift (2003)	n/a
2/5	"A familiar, superficial lesson." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Apr 22, 2006	In My Country (2005)	23%
2.5/5	"It would require unimaginable insensitivity to build an escapist adventure on those 11 graves. Spielberg understands this, but his approach to the material, while not exactly insensitive, lacks judgment all the same." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Mar 18, 2006	Munich (2005)	77%
2.5/5	"Its inconsistencies are puzzlingly obvious and they undermine much of the film's illusion." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Mar 18, 2006	Night Watch (2005)	57%
4.5/5	"stays with you long after the lights have come up in the theater -- how many recent movies can you say that about? -- and its horror and brilliance grow deeper with passing time." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Mar 18, 2006	Cach� (2005)	88%
0.5/5	"Animals, I imagine, have dreams with better narrative integrity." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Mar 9, 2006	Pink Panther (2006)	24%
3/5	"*Where Running Scared* is concerned I'm a victim who has decided, maybe unwisely, not to press charges.*" -- F5 (Wichita, KS)* Posted Mar 9, 2006	Running Scared (2006)	40%
5/5	"*Visionary, insane, and barbarously funny; don't miss the chance to accept the challenge Weekend* is still dying to make.*" -- F5 (Wichita, KS)* Posted Feb 9, 2006	Weekend (1967)	94%
0/5	"An inflated TV show by a sitcom creator." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Feb 9, 2006	As Good as It Gets (1997)	89%
0/1	"Why are these men in jail?" -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Feb 9, 2006	The Shawshank Redemption (1994)	88%
0/5	"The worst of the Coens' genre-ransacking; mean and self-congratulatory." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Feb 9, 2006	Barton Fink (1991)	91%
2/5	"Ice cold, indecent, and way too obvious to be in any way deep." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Feb 9, 2006	A Clockwork Orange (1971)	90%
0/5	"*Place it next to The Omega Code* and The Omega Code shines.*" -- F5 (Wichita, KS)* Posted Feb 9, 2006	Battlefield Earth (2000)	3%
0/5	"*Wildly unwatchable, as if someone had made Andy Warhol's Frankenstein* without being in on the joke.*" -- F5 (Wichita, KS)* Posted Feb 9, 2006	Crash (1996)	64%
0/5	"Worse than merely 'pertinent'." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Feb 9, 2006	Disclosure (1994)	57%
4.5/5	"*There is very little in the cold, clear air of Brokeback Mountain* that isn't first rate [although] its argument may, for many of us, already seem strangely under- and overdone.*" -- F5 (Wichita, KS)* Posted Feb 9, 2006	Brokeback Mountain (2005)	86%
5/5	"It's unique: a sci-fi feature wherein most of the exploration is done within the human soul, a kind of obverse of what we usually expect from the genre." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Oct 10, 2005	Solaris (1972)	97%
4/5	"I wish the plot were pared down, that the magic used more sparingly. But new movies offer us so little, it seems daffy to complain that this one gives us too much." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Oct 10, 2005	The Brothers Grimm (2005)	37%
4.5/5	"It's not Dickens and it's not David Lean, either. This perverse retelling of a classic could only be the work of one filmmaker that I can think of. It's my boy Polanski." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Oct 10, 2005	Oliver Twist (2005)	58%
2.5/5	"For the first hour and fifteen minutes of the movie, we make only limited excursions out of the tenement, and it begins to feel as though we�ve moved in ourselves. Kurosawa may have intended this, but it doesn�t make for very satisfying viewing." -- Filmcritic.com Posted Sep 10, 2005	The Lower Depths (1957)	n/a
3/5	"Among DEFA�s minor treasures, and with a Dr. Strangelove character as Henry Gibson might have played him." -- Filmcritic.com Posted Aug 7, 2005	First Spaceship on Venus (1959)	n/a
3/5	"as illusory as a dream about a mailman and as real as the letter you find in your hand" -- Filmcritic.com Posted Aug 7, 2005	The Phantom of Liberty (1974)	88%
5/5	"There are masterpieces scattered among Bu�uel�s French films like confetti, but here one of cinema�s most brilliant directors made the most brilliant film of his career." -- Filmcritic.com Posted Aug 4, 2005	The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie (1972)	100%
1.5/5	"Charlie and the Chocolate Factory has all the warmth of A Clockwork Orange." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Jul 29, 2005	Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005)	83%
2.5/5	"*Bay's enormous success has placed him beyond strictures of moderation. The Island* is a full hour too long, and, watching it, you can smell the budget and watch it burn.*" -- F5 (Wichita, KS)* Posted Jul 29, 2005	The Island (2005)	40%
3.5/5	"Captures a mood convincingly -- and, in cinematic terms, appropriately -- and it plugged into a cultural zeitgeist that bore it up and away." -- Filmcritic.com Posted Jul 25, 2005	Crazed Fruit (1956)	n/a
2/5	"The narrative miscalculation is extraordinary and ruinous to the extent that I can't conjure an example of a similarly enjoyable movie being beheaded so efficiently." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Jul 17, 2005	War of the Worlds (2005)	73%
4.5/5	"the most remarkable debut in recent experience" -- Filmcritic.com Posted Jul 2, 2005	La Ci�naga (2001)	86%
5/5	"Eraserhead is a work of rare genius and real bravery; it�s a comic nightmare we all have at once and whose meanings lay just out of reach." -- Filmcritic.com Posted Jul 1, 2005	Eraserhead (1976)	89%
1.5/5	"*Questions of 'entertainment' value aside, High Tension* boasts an improbability so humbling that a rational person quakes before it.*" -- F5 (Wichita, KS)* Posted Jun 23, 2005	High Tension (2005)	40%
2.5/5	"I was never bored, but I wasn't necessarily entertained either. Mine was a sociological interest. What's going on?" -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Jun 23, 2005	The Longest Yard (2005)	30%
5/5	"It was released in 1929, but it still has the power to make audiences cringe today and it may remain the most notorious 16 minutes of film ever made." -- Filmcritic.com Posted Jun 18, 2005	Un Chien Andalou (1929)	100%
4/5	"My heart wants to tell you that it's a great film, but my head fights it. I can settle it by saying that it's important, and that its joys outnumber its missteps." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Jun 12, 2005	La Dolce Vita (1960)	98%
2.5/5	"Wild at Heart feels belabored, and it lacks the resonance and power with which the best, most unfiltered passages of Lynch�s work vibrate." -- Filmcritic.com Posted Jun 12, 2005	Wild at Heart (1990)	66%
1.5/5	"On the surface it all seems very reasonable, but it exhibits an innate jingoism and its "feminism" is too thoughtless to be believed. An ungainly, smug film." -- F5 (Wichita, KS) Posted Jun 12, 2005	Million Dollar Baby (2004)	92%
