  1. Sadly, the whole affair is little more than ennui with a pedigree.

    Perry creates an objective yet not overly dry character study of the man, now a fugitive living in Japan, as he recalls his days in power.

    Cegavske's film is a meld of surreal imagery, and a morbid somewhat horrific story that art lovers will enjoy. Horror fans need apply.

    The film builds everything up just to smash it and laugh, like a kid playing with LEGO.

    It’s a fascinating study of contradictions in values, made by and featuring women who want to transcend those contradictions.
  2. Heder infuses the characters and plot with such deep emotion it makes up for its lack of narrative originality.
  3. I'm not sure Sam Mendes' latest is a masterpiece as so many critics are exclaiming but it is very probably the most artful and earnest drama ever adapted from a comic book.
  4. August so firmly establishes characters of Martin and Barbara and their relationship, so when the disease does enter the picture, the film does not suddenly become about that; the focus clearly remains on the effect it takes on the people.
  5. A well-intended but hopelessly ill-focused documentary which wants to be the "That's Entertainment!" for the New York theater but seems like a hodgepodge of anecdotes, factoids and moldy memories.
  6. The movie is set up to pull the heartstrings, and it’s very effective at doing so. You care for the characters and what happens to them, and you leave the film wanting to know more.
  7. The film is professionally made but a thorough bore at every imaginable level.
  8. Doesn’t always hit all the right notes...But in the end, Affleck displays a surprisingly sure hand, and Gone Baby Gone largely delivers.
  9. The Last Stop In Yuma County is a stylish, great-looking noir with an excellent cast.
  10. Overall, New York Doll is an affectionate (occasionally too much so) look at Arthur Kane.
  11. With a deep respect for community and history, Unkovski weaves a sense of time and place throughout, capturing the harmony and imbalance of living through dialogue, people, music, and work.
  12. This touching film will undoubtedly make you sympathize with its protagonist, wonderfully interpreted with gentle poise and nuance by Diop.
  13. Burton fans and those eager for a more accurate adaptation of the novel will be happy with this new movie, while nostalgia-addled Gen X-ers and stoners of all ages will always have the original.

    In the end, Restoring Tomorrow reminds us that you can restore an old historic building to its original beauty, but it’s ultimately about the people.

    A pretty great little movie.

    It’s a welcome addition to the national debate, which while not always on the money, is consistently thoughtful, smart and thoroughly satisfying.
  14. It's a remarkable film; the dialogue takes our breath away with its sharp skewering of expectations and realities, the bleak honesty is balanced by the freshness of real life and moments of raw truth and comedy -- Don't miss it.
  15. Bell is as hilarious as ever. But she also emotes great empathy. Those smiles and tears are genuine. Fittingly, she’s given all of us going through the same thing what we have been looking for: a step in the right direction.
  16. It’s the investigative portion of the movie that is most engaging.
  17. This extraordinary work of cinematic art is among the most sublime, compelling and beautifully crafted films to grace the big screen.
  18. I like this film because of its nuances and hilarious banter and dialogue, which speak to the soul, not just what’s happening on screen.
  19. Best Summer Ever wants to do so much at once that it never slows down to allow the more dramatic moments to sink in properly. But, as a showcase for the cast and crew, it works rather well. Most of the songs are good, the dancing is energetic and well-choreographed, and it has charm to spare.
  20. The film effortlessly examines hefty themes like freedom, toxic masculinity, privilege, familial bonds (and the need to escape them).
  21. This film is not going to be for everyone, but for those who love horror served with a mean little edge of snarky humor, it’s quite a ride.
  22. Hal
    Hal is a loving tribute to a filmmaker who rarely gets the attention he deserves.
  23. Finally receiving a theatrical release 20 years after it was made, Philip Hartman’s “No Picnic” emerges as an entertaining if flawed relic from a very different era.
