" Superbly acted (especially by bone-thin Farrow and Ruth Gordon as the ultimate neighbor from hell), it’s a satantango in the land of Is-this-real-or-am-I-crazy?, with a luridly literal ending that doesn’t negate the previous, more interior terrors."

Rosemary's Baby (1968)98%

" It's an astringently cynical take on official history, with Warren Beatty as a muckraker investigating the strange aftershocks of a senator's killing."

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005)89%

" A whimsical success of a very high order: The pace never lags, the invention is incessant, and it makes you want to have a bite of cheese afterward."

" One leaves the film with the Twilight Zone sense that the place isn't quite the hellhole prior reports have suggested."
Posted Aug 9, 2005
 
A State of Mind (2005)93%
/
 
" Though the film lacks some of the paper incarnation's subtlety, Dai's infidelity to his own text keeps things interesting."
Posted Jul 26, 2005
 
Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress (2005)78%

" Fun and nourishing, Charlie's the topsy-turvy equivalent of a three-course dinner in a single stick of gum."

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005)84%

" Patient and fascinated, but never succumbing to abstraction."
Posted Jun 14, 2005
 
Wheel of Time (2005)94%
/
 
" The multiple story lines can feel choppy, but the dialogue has snap, and the pants' powers never distract from the teenagers' emotions."
Posted May 31, 2005
 
The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (2005)77%
/
 
" Despite a fairly explicit lesbian boobfest (projected attendance just went up!), the film is more good-natured than provocative."
Posted May 24, 2005
 
Saving Face (2005)86%
/
 
" Several sharp jolts give the doc its dramatic shape, and one episode in particular, caught with a neighbor's lens, will make you gasp with grief."
Posted Feb 8, 2005
 
Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill (2005)95%
/
 
" Jessica Yu's elegant new doc In the Realms of the Unreal is a spry, creative response to his oceanic talent and claustrophobic life."

" Could SpongeBob, all gangly goodwill and ice cream appetite, be the anarchic savior for our stressed-out times?"
Posted Nov 23, 2004
 
The Spongebob Squarepants Movie (2004)68%
/
 
" Styles range from cabaret to barbershop to toe-tapping bubblegum, and the rainy-day serenade at the start nods Cherbourgward, with a soupçon of Low Countries sass."
Posted Oct 26, 2004
 
Yes Nurse! No Nurse! (2004)50%
/
 
" E J-Yong's transposition illuminates, with satisfying crispness, the hyper-Confucian high society of the time, as well as the underground Catholic movement."
Posted Oct 12, 2004
 
Untold Scandal (2003)89%
/
 
" His nostalgia enabled by technology, Conran takes the ghosts in his machine seriously, and the results appear at once meltingly lovely and intriguingly inhuman."

Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow (2004)73%
/

Miracle (2004)79%

" Adapted from the 1949 memoir by two children of pioneering efficiency experts Frank and Lilliann Gilbreth, the film now has a title that doesn't really make sense, but it gets modern-day mileage for its even more improbable premise."

" Bolly-go-lightly hybrid The Guru manages to have its dosa and eat it, too -- allowing that culture is a con game, while seeking pleasure in the deception."

The Guru (2003)58%
