    The Manson Family
    The actual performances during the film range from excellent to somewhat amateurish, but this amateurism is easily absorbed by the sheer power of the imagery on display.
  2. Calling All Earthlings
    Most appealing is the film’s mixture of California post-War history, cults and a tinge of science fiction — an intriguing combination of elements that make it a winner.
  3. The Beach Bum
    The Beach Bum is not a terrible movie. The directing is competent, the score is excellent, and the cast is game and hilarious. However, considering who was at the helm, it is not focused enough and winds up with nothing to say.
  4. A Jihad for Love
    Rich with compelling, often heartbreaking stories.
  5. Monuments
    In Monuments, the comedy outweighs the drama, for better and worse. For better because Sullivan is an engaging comedic presence, at once gawky, twitterpated, and restless. For worse, because the ending does not have nearly as much emotional effect as it probably should.
  6. Ali Zoua: Prince of the Streets
    Beautifully produced but emotionally vacant drama.
  7. The Terminal
    It may not be great but you're guaranteed to feel great walking out the theater door.

    Olympic Dreams
    Olympic Dreams offers a little love in a fantastic location.

    Odessa... Odessa!
    A lyrical poem to the lost places in our past and our heritage.
  10. Offseason
    Despite the many things it does right, atmosphere and casting, mostly, it doesn’t give you any reason to remember it.
  11. Wuthering Heights
    Even if this doesn’t wind up being your favorite version of the film, it’s worth seeing Fennell’s updated take.

    The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare
    It’s all about the action. The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare may be forgettable in the long run of Guy Ritchie movies, but it’s fun.
  13. A Christmas Story Christmas
    Fans of A Christmas Story, and those simply in the mood for a holiday flick, will enjoy A Christmas Story Christmas for the light, nicely touching tale that it is in its own right, without the pressure of having to be as perfect as something as legendary as the leg lamp.
  14. Becoming Jane
    Hathaway's exuberance and dramatic range are fitting for this portrayal of the celebrated literary figure.

    Green Street Hooligans
    A great film because of it's realism and the ability to show viewers a world that exists even today, but not everyone knows about.
  16. The Devil All the Time
    None of the characters feel real, necessarily, but they’re all immensely watchable in their own right.
  17. The Brothers Bloom
    A little bit of screwball comedy and a lot of film noir, add a dash of suspense-drama, and half a dozen card tricks too, then you have the recipe for making The Brothers Bloom.

    Resurrecting the Champ
    It is great to see a boxing movie that portrays both boxing and Jackson in different lights.
  19. Beast Beast
    Beast Beast captures the high school experience like lightning in a bottle.
  20. Old
    The actors do what they can, but even the talent assembled here can’t help getting swallowed up in the Shyamalan vortex of nonsense.
  21. The Garden Left Behind
    The Garden Left Behind is an amazing drama filled to the brim with realistic and heavy performances that will absolutely leave a lasting impression and subject matter that should more commonly be explored and celebrated. This film is special, and it deserves mass audience attention.
  22. Camp
    This is the kind of film you can watch over and over again on several levels, especially as you mine the script for knowing jokes about the theatre (it's packed with them).
  23. Short Cut to Nirvana: Kumbh Mela
    A beautifully crafted documentary.
  24. Street Kings
    Two things come to mind as you watch the first act of Street Kings, the first is how fresh and exciting the movie would’ve been if it was released in 1984, the second is the question, “James Ellroy wrote that?”

    Yesterday
    What Richard Curtis brilliantly does with this well-worn storyline is bring in elements to make it feel fresh.
  26. Nancy Drew and the Hidden Staircase
    This is innocuous, pop entertainment and, taken on those grounds, it does the job just fine.

    Whistle
    Much like the rides at the carnival, Whistle delivers heady highs and some disconcerting lows, sometimes within the same scene. It’s a film with flashes of imagination and nostalgia that suggest something brighter lurking beneath the surface. Much like the whistle itself, it delivers on what it promises, and the noise it makes is hard to ignore.

    Wendy
    There were many aspects from a filmmaking and storytelling process that I found admirable, but I just can’t see myself recommending it. I know all too well that my criticisms have everything to do with the very core of J.M. Barrie’s original story and Pan mythology itself.

    Endgame
    It’s a great story. I’ve read books on the subject and have found it fascinating. But even reading Mandela and Desmond Tutu will not prepare you for the barrage of information Endgame throws at you.
  30. A Lot of Nothing
    The filmmaker plays with our assumptions around justice and race. While A Lot of Nothing uses elements ripped from the headlines, in this context, what you expect to come from it will say more about you than it does the script. The revelation of the final act changes everything that has gone before. Hang onto the edge of your seat for a wickedly entertaining ride.
