Rating	T-Meter	Title \| Year	Add Date (default)

Fresh 3/4	Fresh 70%	Chelsea on the Rocks (2009)	" Chelsea on the Rocks is very lively, somewhat thrown together in that loose yet aggressively visceral Ferrara style." — Slant Magazine Posted Sep 28, 2009
Fresh 4/4	N/A	Paradise (2008)	" It wouldn't be a stretch to compare Paradise to Alphaville, what with its imagining of the modern as otherworldly, or to imagine it as a capsule made by an outer-space explorer who visits Earth and finds layers of mystery in the mundane." — Slant Magazine Posted Sep 23, 2009
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 100%	Passing Strange (2010)	" A worthy public record of a show most people nationwide didn't get the chance to see." — Slant Magazine Posted Aug 20, 2009
Rotten 2.5/4	Fresh 78%	It Might Get Loud (2009)	" Nearly two hours of yackety-yak is less expressive than one image of White's hand bleeding from the intensity of pressing his guitar strings during a mad improvisation." — Slant Magazine Posted Aug 11, 2009
Fresh 2.5/4	Rotten 58%	A Perfect Getaway (2009)	" Unashamed of flaunting its B-movie conventions" — Slant Magazine Posted Aug 6, 2009
Fresh 4/4	Fresh 75%	Bad Lieutenant (1992)	" *Ferrara was in the right place at the right time to make Bad Lieutenant." — Slant Magazine* Posted Aug 5, 2009
Rotten 2.5/4	Rotten 52%	Friday the 13th - Part 6: Jason Lives (1986)	" While there's a superficial been-there-done-that, why don't-we-just-mock-the-whole-thing quality to this entry in the series, it certainly livens up what has become by this point a stale franchise." — Slant Magazine Posted Jun 12, 2009
Rotten 1.5/4	Rotten 13%	Friday the 13th - Part 5: A New Beginning (1985)	" The tone is crude, raunchy, and leering, with kill scenes combined with more nudity than usual." — Slant Magazine Posted Jun 12, 2009
Rotten 2.5/4	Rotten 20%	Friday the 13th - Part 4: The Final Chapter (1984)	" *This one certainly felt as if it properly closed out the Friday the 13th* series before it devolved into unadulterated camp.*" — Slant Magazine* Posted Jun 12, 2009
Fresh 3.5/4	Fresh 97%	Hearts and Minds (1975)	" Hearts and Minds is an essay told in a voice of thinly controlled moral outrage, which sometimes dribbles over into seething hate." — Slant Magazine Posted Mar 19, 2009
Rotten 1.5/4	N/A	The Haunted Castle (1921)	" There's almost no expressionistic phantasmagoria here." — Slant Magazine Posted Mar 16, 2009
Fresh 4/4	Fresh 94%	Hobson's Choice (1954)	" Lean's splendid frames specifically work to show the high and low status of a social grid." — Slant Magazine Posted Feb 23, 2009
Fresh 4/4	N/A	La Femme Publique (1984)	" *Though Kessling can be interpreted as a stand-in for Zulawski, Femme Publique* is not his autobiography in the same way his previous film Possession was.*" — Slant Magazine* Posted Feb 18, 2009
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 88%	Faces (1968)	" Cassavetes was interested in actors and their freak-show intensities, and their performances give his films a hyper-real quality." — Slant Magazine Posted Feb 14, 2009
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 100%	Shadows (1959)	" *The Beat generation espoused a rejection of mainstream American values, and John Cassavetes's Shadows* feels like a relic from that movement.*" — Slant Magazine* Posted Feb 14, 2009
Rotten 1.5/4	Rotten 13%	Friday the 13th - Part 3 (1982)	" Shot in such a way to capitalize on the brief fad of Reagan-era 3D movies, there's less memorable POV shots from the killer and more images from the perspective of the victims." — Slant Magazine Posted Feb 4, 2009
Rotten 2.5/4	Rotten 35%	Friday the 13th - Part 2 (1981)	" Friday the 13th Part 2 never aspires to be termite art." — Slant Magazine Posted Feb 4, 2009
Rotten 2/4	Fresh 61%	Friday the 13th - Part 1 (1980)	" *You really have to wonder what exactly made the Friday the 13th* series so wildly successful.*" — Slant Magazine* Posted Feb 4, 2009
Rotten 1/4	Rotten 15%	The Spirit (2008)	" *Samuel L. Jackson has hit a rock bottom with The Spirit* that's comparable only to Joan Crawford's appearance in Trog.*" — Slant Magazine* Posted Dec 20, 2008
Rotten 2/4	Rotten 27%	Seven Pounds (2008)	" Looking like he hasn't shaved in days, and wearing the same suit day after day, Smith is playing the Hollywood version of worn and weary." — Slant Magazine Posted Dec 17, 2008
Fresh 4/4	Fresh 97%	Casablanca (1942)	" The movie has a peculiar magic to it, and it's in the richness of its details that mostly go unnoticed because of the film's pace." — Slant Magazine Posted Dec 13, 2008
Fresh 4/4	Fresh 87%	Kiss of the Spider Woman (1985)	" Argentine writer Manuel Puig's book Kiss of the Spider Woman has a theme that endures throughout all its various incarnations: that of human dignity and compassion surviving within a society that denies it." — Slant Magazine Posted Aug 14, 2008
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 83%	Before the Rain (1994)	" What it loses in novelty and subtlety it makes up for in its earnest depiction of love and individual human decency in the face of societal cruelty." — Slant Magazine Posted Aug 12, 2008
Rotten 2/4	Fresh 82%	Tropic Thunder (2008)	" Ben Stiller used to be unafraid of pointed mockery, but nowadays he pulls his punches." — Slant Magazine Posted Aug 11, 2008
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 86%	Shine a Light (2008)	" Even an average performance by the Rolling Stones isn't boring." — Slant Magazine Posted Jul 28, 2008
Rotten 2/4	Rotten 32%	The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008)	" Because the show has been off the air for so many years now, audiences may wonder why these characters haven't moved on from their obsessively singular points of view." — Slant Magazine Posted Jul 24, 2008
Rotten 2.5/4	Fresh 77%	Lou Reed's Berlin (2008)	" The movie experience gets in its own way." — Slant Magazine Posted Jul 14, 2008
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 87%	Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)	" Adolescent pulp fantasia meets sentimental married life in Guillermo Del Toro's follow-up to his 2004 working-class superhero movie." — Slant Magazine Posted Jul 9, 2008
Fresh 4/4	Fresh 95%	Night of the Living Dead (1968)	" *There's a brute force in Night of the Living Dead* that catches one in the throat.*" — Slant Magazine* Posted May 27, 2008
Rotten 2/4	Fresh 89%	Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989)	" *There's considerable pleasure in watching these two lions spar, but sometimes Last Crusade* mistakes dotting every I and crossing every T for detailed character development.*" — Slant Magazine* Posted May 21, 2008
Fresh 4/4	Fresh 94%	Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)	" Lost Ark holds up for many reasons, not least of which is because of Spielberg's consummate skill as a visual storyteller and his ability to draw charged performances from his actors." — Slant Magazine Posted May 21, 2008
Fresh 2.5/4	Rotten 46%	Mister Lonely (2008)	" As a champion for the beautiful and the strange, I'll take bottom-shelf Korine over just about anything else currently playing in theaters." — Slant Magazine Posted Apr 28, 2008
Fresh 3.5/4	Rotten 57%	Lost Highway (1997)	" It's pensive male anxiety, and for some cultural reason it's easier for audiences to accept female hysteria than the insecurities of men." — Slant Magazine Posted Apr 1, 2008
Fresh 2.5/4	Fresh 85%	The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1988)	" Making your way through the film is like eating an entire beautifully sculpted wedding cake." — Slant Magazine Posted Mar 31, 2008
Fresh 2.5/4	Fresh 93%	Shotgun Stories (2007)	" *Alternately terse and elegiac, Shotgun Stories* works best when it observes the lives of its main characters, three lower-class brothers from southeast Arkansas.*" — Slant Magazine* Posted Mar 23, 2008
Rotten 2/4	Fresh 78%	Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day (2008)	" Brisk, peppy, light on its feet, and trying awfully hard to be reminiscent of a fast-talking Depression-era rags-to-riches comedy, the film can be best described as inoffensive." — Slant Magazine Posted Mar 3, 2008
Rotten 1/4	Rotten 35%	Vantage Point (2008)	" It's mind-numbingly tedious, perhaps because the rhythm, the plot, even the seemingly indestructible veteran secret service agent Barnes seem lifted wholesale from any random episode of 24." — Slant Magazine Posted Feb 19, 2008
Rotten 1/4	Rotten 16%	Jumper (2008)	" The lazy regard for David's moral crisis, or lack thereof, is pitiful." — Slant Magazine Posted Feb 13, 2008
Fresh 4/4	Rotten 40%	Walker (1987)	" Walker is the dark, neurotic flipside of Repo Man, where the antiheroic title character is not interested in any form of individual self-expression other than a single-minded pursuit of fame and glory." — Slant Magazine Posted Feb 13, 2008
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 79%	Chicago 10 (2008)	" Chicago 10 is a reminder of a time when the counter-culture was out on the street making noise--a history lesson so removed from our present political climate it feels almost like science fiction." — Slant Magazine Posted Feb 11, 2008
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 60%	George A. Romero's Diary of the Dead (2008)	" Some filmmakers do their best work when they don't have much money and their back is against the wall." — Slant Magazine Posted Feb 6, 2008
Rotten 1.5/4	N/A	Tragic Ceremony (1972)	" Tragic Ceremony isn't scary enough to induce terror, unintentionally funny enough for camp, or bizarre enough for mad surrealism." — Slant Magazine Posted Feb 4, 2008
Fresh 2/4	N/A	Ricco the Machine (1973)	" *If you're feeling nostalgic for some 1970s Euro-sleaze, Ricco the Mean Machine* is a guilty pleasure for stoners eager to revisit the land of shag carpeting, bellbottoms, and free love.*" — Slant Magazine* Posted Jan 30, 2008
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 78%	A Zed and Two Noughts (1985)	" None of Greenaway's films take place in anything resembling naturalism or realism, and they don't feel modern. They're like archaic storybook adaptations of Jacobean plays illustrated by Vermeer." — Slant Magazine Posted Jan 22, 2008
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 100%	The Draughtsman's Contract (1982)	" A puzzle book for intellectual aesthetes." — Slant Magazine Posted Jan 22, 2008
Rotten 2.5/4	N/A	The Freethinker (1994)	" Even if it's good for you, it feels like you're taking medicine." — Slant Magazine Posted Jan 4, 2008
Fresh 4/4	Fresh 78%	Eyes Wide Shut (1999)	" Misunderstood as a psychosexual thriller, Stanley Kubrick's final film is actually more of an acidic comedy about how Tom Cruise fails to get laid." — Slant Magazine Posted Nov 19, 2007
Fresh 4/4	Fresh 91%	A Clockwork Orange (1971)	" Spectacular, operatic, colorful, and exquisitely photographed." — Slant Magazine Posted Nov 19, 2007
Fresh 3/4	Fresh 64%	The Two Jakes (1990)	" The Two Jakes allows Nicholson to reprise one of his most memorable characters as a way of seeing whether he's still got it." — Slant Magazine Posted Nov 8, 2007
Fresh 4/4	Fresh 100%	Chinatown (1974)	" The exhaustive, labyrinthine narrative is built up like a fortress around this film's bitter heart." — Slant Magazine Posted Nov 8, 2007
