An exhilarating piece of popular entertainment.

Fiennes and writer Abi Morgan mercifully forsake the gee-golly traditions of similar fame-minded fare...in constructing a narrative as emotionally repressed as its subjects must have been, with each character existing within their own arena of personal and social compromise.

What's best about the film is not the hot romance, but the coldness that lies at its heart.

Don't miss it.

There are some cheap shots, and there's an argument to be made about whether the film is sending up stereotypes or simply perpetuating them. But for every dubious moment, there are plenty that connect.

He’s taken what, on paper, boils down to an extra ridiculous episode of “Law and Order: Criminal Intent” and passes it off as high cinematic art.

Like it or hate it, Titanic lives and breathes as a piece of pure cinema.

Given the enormous praise, the film falls short.

An insistent, insinuating film -- both in terms of its plot and characters, and in its impact on the viewer -- Harry's effects are small-scale but so perfectly pitched that they never seem small.

The result is a movie that turns the financial phenomenon of Web startups -- the crazy kids with ideas, and the crazier bankers with more money than sense -- into a moving human drama.

Levinson is at the top of his game with Liberty Heights, his instincts acutely cinematic, his purpose clear.

A very funny film that never sacrifices the lives of its characters to the needs of its story.

Even when it seems mercenary and muddled, X-Men Days of Future Past is enjoyable and well-made and actually about character, a necessary shot of adrenaline born of both inspiration and desperation for a franchise that desperately needed one.

The movie on its own is great, but with this music it's sublime.

The animation is beautiful, the music is catchy and the lyrics are clever.

While it’s only modestly effective at the serious stuff, at least it’s free of sanctimony and preciousness.

Heartfelt and haunting, sympathetic while still aware of the limits of sympathy, Wild incorporates beautiful direction, smart writing and brave acting.

Hanks gives possibly the most compelling performance of his career.

Drags on far too long.

For those seeking even a little adventurousness in their filmgoing experiences, the movie will wear thin very quickly.

Rush is one of those rare sports movies that’s compelling as both a drama and a spectacle.

Undiluted Jackie Chan, not the watered-down stuff he's been doing stateside.

Unlikely to draw the audience it deserves, but those who do see it will have a hard time shaking its gentle, ghostly echoes.

Stars the cult celebrity Om Puri, widely considered by cinephiles to be one of the best actors in the world.

A strange and lovely combination of cinematic nostalgia and offbeat (gay) love story.

The point of this film is the spell it weaves and, by and large, it is successful. It’s the music, it’s the cinematography, it’s the score, it’s Casey Affleck’s hollow speaking voice — they all add up to something that resembles a fever dream facsimile of an eventful movie.

The human imperative informs every aspect of After Tiller, resulting in an unexpectedly warm film.

When the writing is good, Go is good, and when the writing is flat, things fall apart.
