Rating T-Meter Title | Year Add Date
58% Kaboom (2011) " The tone and production values suggest a mixture of daytime soap, gay porn and Twilight slash-fiction, but the film's greatest asset, as ever with Araki, is sincerity." — Sight and Sound
Posted Jun 14, 2011
88% Superbad (2007) " Honest goodwill, fond observational detail and Greg Mottola's exuberant direction make the picture nigh on irresistible, but there are some missteps." — Sight and Sound
Posted Jul 6, 2010
1/5 18% Dance Flick (2009) " A musical spoof with two left feet and no rhythm." — Heat Magazine
Posted Aug 24, 2009
93% My Life to Live (It's My Life) (Vivre sa vie: Film en douze tableaux) (1962) " You can see now what Bernard Rose, Mike Figgis, Lars von Trier and all the other DV-fixated filmmakers are striving for; they're trying to reclaim the freedom, the weightlessness, of cinema. Bravo to them." — Observer [UK]
Posted Oct 24, 2007
50% Manderlay (2006) " The audience's familiarity with the stylistic devices of Manderlay should allow the film's more reflective screenplay to shine through." — Sight and Sound
Posted Sep 28, 2006
72% Syriana (2005) " The disorientation is purely cosmetic." — Sight and Sound
Posted Sep 28, 2006
76% Time to Leave (Le Temps Qui Reste) (2006) " The entire film is a balancing trick, with scenes of potential banality redeemed at the last by a subtle twist or subversion. In their conflicted expressions, the performers prove themselves experts at their own high-wire acts." — Sight and Sound
Posted Sep 28, 2006
82% Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005) " If anything cramps Depp, and the film's sense of fun, it is the weight that is placed on reconciliation between Wonka and his father." — Sight and Sound
Posted Sep 28, 2006
— 92% Vera Drake (2004) " An exceptional breadth of context and compassion is evident here, though the film is as much a triumph of production design as it is of acting, writing and direction." — Sight and Sound
Posted Jan 15, 2005
90% Last Life in the Universe (2004) " It's an unsuccessful experiment in combining genres that are as irreconcilable as oil and water." — Sight and Sound
Posted Aug 3, 2004
88% Bad Education (La Mala educación) (2004) " When the film gets in a spin, Bernal is its compass." — Sight and Sound
Posted Jun 1, 2004
43% I'll Sleep When I'm Dead (2004) " Some effort is made to question the macho values of the crime genre, and it is this that best distinguishes I'll Sleep When I'm Dead from other recent British thrillers." — Sight and Sound
Posted May 4, 2004
2/5 76% Big Fish (2003) — Independent
Posted Jan 24, 2004
60% Gerry (2003) " The picture can be read as a warning about the perils of improvisation -- a neat joke given how fruitful that method proves here." — Sight and Sound
Posted Oct 7, 2003
76% 8 Mile (2002) " 8 Mile may have corniness in its bones, but there are ambiguities enough here for a whole other movie." — Sight and Sound
Posted Feb 4, 2003
77% Changing Lanes (2002) " The pleasure of watching Affleck forcibly relieved of his security and complacency will be relished by anyone who enjoyed seeing Cary Grant sullying his suit in North by Northwest..." — Sight and Sound
