Posted Jan 1, 1800
14% How to Seduce Difficult Women (2009) " How to Seduce Difficult Women is woefully incompetent and ugly, throwing out multiple threads without resolution, randomly interspersed with man-in-Union-Square documentary commentary of the Mars/Venus kind." — Village Voice
Posted Oct 27, 2009
93% Harmony and Me (2009) " Slight, indifferently shot, and entirely lacking in ballast, Harmony and Me's sole justification for being is that it's consistently very funny." — Village Voice
Posted Sep 15, 2009
30% Gamer (2009) " Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor have slowly started garnering actual critical consideration for their Crank movies; with Gamer, they make another good case for taking them seriously." — L.A. Weekly
Posted Sep 10, 2009
89% Yasukuni (2007) " The documentary's cultural impact is lost in translation -- Yasukuni initially had trouble getting shown at all in Japan -- but the skill of the enterprise isn't." — Village Voice
Posted Aug 11, 2009
100% Brighton Rock (1947) " A seedy noir, equal parts concealed-camera atmosphere and tense set pieces." — Village Voice
Posted Jun 16, 2009
84% Under Our Skin (2008) " Andy Abrahams Wilson builds a decent, if stylistically dull, case that Lyme disease is far deadlier and more neurologically debilitating than most doctors want to admit." — Village Voice
Posted Jun 16, 2009
82% Le Combat dans l'île (Fire and Ice) (1962) " There's a surprise every five minutes, except when fascism gets its ass kicked at the end." — Village Voice
Posted Jun 10, 2009
94% Tokyo Sonata (Tokyo Sonata) (2009) " Tokyo Sonata is finally deeply moving, either despite or because of the unusual path it takes to get there." — House Next Door
Posted Mar 16, 2009
89% Robert Blecker Wants Me Dead (2008) " As it turns out, its titular subject makes it one of the few genuinely problematic documentaries to come along in a long while." — Village Voice
Posted Feb 24, 2009
50% Dealing and Wheeling in Small Arms (2006) " If nothing else in Sander Francken's conscientious documentary on illicit arms trading packs the same kick (there's something powerful in outrageous behavior presented without editorial), it's still worthy without turning outright dull." — Village Voice
Posted Jan 21, 2009
86% The Pervert's Guide to Cinema (2006) " [Zizek] steers clear of his usual dense Hegel-centric language and goes straight for the fun bits." — Village Voice
Posted Jan 14, 2009
79% Gruz 200 (Cargo 200) (Freight 200) (2007) " Regardless of intent, Cargo 200 is beautifully filmed and completely disturbing for its entire running time." — Village Voice
