Wild Zero (2000)n/a
/
 
"There are so many sharp ideas here -- nothing that couldn’t be improved chemically -- the movie almost makes you feel nostalgic for sex like it never was. And never will be again." -- Georgia Straight
Posted May 8, 2008
 
Viva (2008)68%
/
 
"A bleary-eyed fever dream lumbered with impenetrable literary references, Death and the Compass quickly loses its way and expires long before its 90 minutes are up." -- Variety
Posted Jan 11, 2008
 
Death and the Compass (1996)17%
/
 
"Thoughtful, surprisingly fast-moving docu overcomes contextual messiness to provide a memorably quirky look at Dzonghsar Khyentse Rinpoche." -- Variety
Posted Dec 7, 2007
 
Words of My Perfect Teacher (2006)n/a
/
 
"A promising concept is gradually run into the ground." -- Variety
Posted Oct 13, 2007
 
Sex and Death 101 (2008)27%
/
 
"An uplifting ode to all that's still great, or at least moderately salvageable, about the USA, this talking-head road trip -- taken by two neophyte pic-makers with a really solid Rolodex -- is a handy antidote to prevailing Generation Why cynicism." -- Variety
Posted Sep 19, 2007
 
Anthem (1997)80%
/
 
"[A] snappily edited, shockingly well balanced (and occasionally gruesome) overview." -- Georgia Straight
Posted Aug 20, 2007
 
Your Mommy Kills Animals (2007)91%
/
 
"The locals may be eccentrics, but the movie makes it clear that they are not as far away as they seem." -- Georgia Straight
Posted Jul 30, 2007
 
Plagues and Pleasures on the Salton Sea (2007)95%
/
 
"Overall effect, regardless of aesthetic quibbles or kudos, is to make auds aware of how imminent the risk is to these environmentally interdependent creatures." -- Variety
Posted Jun 23, 2007
 
Arctic Tale (2007)62%
/
 
"Both a finely wrought period piece and a slice of delicately captured childhood." -- Variety
Posted Jun 20, 2007
 
Eve and the Fire Horse (2006)83%
/
 
"As pure cinema, there's no denying the power of Lunacy, although mostly that power can best be described as, well, sadistic." -- Georgia Straight
Posted Apr 16, 2007
 
Lunacy (2006)67%
/
 
"Pic is seasoned with fine perfs by JR Bourne as a charismatic, creepy hustler and Steph Song as Constanzo's sexy potential love interest." -- Variety
Posted Feb 24, 2007
 
Everything's Gone Green (2007)69%
/
 
"A tight script, smart casting and sharp direction prevail over modest production values in Run Robot Run!, a sci-fi spoof of corporate culture." -- Variety
Posted Feb 21, 2007
 
Run Robot Run! (2006)100%
/
 
"There's little here for people who like their pics loud, colorful and tidy. But Sleeping Dogs does offer some raw meat for auds willing to sniff out a little something extra." -- Variety
Posted Feb 18, 2007
 
Sleeping Dogs (2006)n/a
/
 
"A thorny subject is handled with care in this meticulous reconstruction of life inside the East German police state, as boiled down to the experiences of just two ex-inmates." -- Variety
Posted Feb 7, 2007
 
The Decomposition of the Soul (2007)73%

"Even if the attempt to tell a story in this B.C.-shot effort is a bit lame, the atmospherics still make it fun to watch." -- Variety

Sk8 Life (2006)n/a

"There’s always room for zombies, and Mile Zero maker Andrew Currie adds an instant classic to the genre with Fido." -- Georgia Straight

"Cohen, abetted by director Larry Charles, makes a meal of Borat Sagdiyev, a profoundly ignorant, deeply sexist, and determinedly anti-Semitic news reporter from Kazakhstan who nonetheless projects a kind of appealing, and appalling, innocence." -- Georgia Straight
Posted Nov 11, 2006
 
Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (2006)91%
/
 
"The film's pretty pictures are invaluable; still, it's almost shocking that such a worthy ode to nature's grace should be so clumsy." -- Georgia Straight

"Some say the biggest offender was the application of '80s pop songs -- the soundtrack to her own upbringing -- to an otherwise detailed period piece. But throwing on great, guitar-driven tunes is actually one her cannier moves." -- Georgia Straight
Posted Oct 28, 2006
 
Marie Antoinette (2006)54%

"If there's a more remarkable series of documentary films, or even as remarkable a premise for one, I don't expect to see it in my lifetime." -- Georgia Straight

"The Queen, a surprisingly intimate study of power at high levels, offers us the subtle pleasures of Helen Mirren playing a familiar figure from real life, Queen Elizabeth II of England, at one of the most challenging moments of her long reign." -- Georgia Straight
Posted Oct 28, 2006
 
The Queen (2006)97%

"Gary Burns' latest vision of dystopia is an edgy look at exurbia, this time with a documaker's eye." -- Variety

Radiant City (2006)93%

"In any case, evidence of Lennon's weaknesses, as an artist or a human being, in no way undermines the value of his work, nor the argument against bureaucrats fighting secretly against him." -- Georgia Straight

The U.S. vs. John Lennon (2006)76%

"Held back a year to allow Capote time to cool off, Infamous continues the Truman show by giving us a sharper, more elfin writer in his prime, and focusing more fully on his odd and ultimately wounding relationship with a convicted killer." -- Georgia Straight
Posted Oct 15, 2006
 
Infamous (2006)70%
/
 
"The fine line between eccentricity and outright dopiness is skirted with British aplomb in Keeping Mum, a comedy that revives the ghoulish tradition of the Ealing Studios' heyday, with Maggie Smith standing in for Alec Guinness in, say, The Ladykillers." -- Georgia Straight
Posted Oct 15, 2006
 
Keeping Mum (2006)55%
