Rating T-Meter Title | Year Add Date
3/10 47% Heaven's Gate (1980) " Sometimes, both audiences and critics get it right the first time." — PopMatters
Posted Jan 3, 2013
10/10 80% The Royal Tenenbaums (2002) " Each one of the Tenenbaums might be alone, and quietly miserable in a vaguely contented way, but at least they're lonely as a family. That's some kind of solace." — PopMatters
Posted Sep 10, 2012
7/10 62% Clue (1985) " ...really just an excuse for this band of comic actors to play around with a locked-room sex farce that's also a light satire on witchhunts." — PopMatters
Posted Aug 6, 2012
9/10 100% Homicide: The Movie (2000) " In Homicide's electric pop of language, Mamet provides a grand kind of stage for the ugly catalyst of jealousy and racial hatred that curdles in just about every character's mind." — PopMatters
Posted Oct 13, 2009
100% Indiana Jones - The Adventure Collection () " There should be room in our collective imagination for a hero who makes mistakes, lots of them, and still saves the day." — PopMatters
Posted May 27, 2008
9/10 96% Dazed and Confused (1993) " A film that practically demands repeat viewings." — PopMatters
Posted Aug 25, 2006
9/10 53% Kicking and Screaming (1995) " ...At once entirely of its moment and timeless." — PopMatters
Posted Aug 25, 2006
100% Kurutta Kajitsu (crazed Fruit) (1956) " They're on the road to nowhere, and looking good getting there. " — Slant Magazine
Posted Jun 20, 2005
—— Rescue Me - The Complete First Season (2005) " More raucous character study than Backdraft-style heroics; good but not quite great examples of either." — Slant Magazine
Posted Jun 8, 2005
100% The Petrified Forest (1936) " A ripping thriller shadowed with overtones of societal decay and Darwinian selection. " — Slant Magazine
Posted Feb 11, 2005
100% The Public Enemy (1931) " Cagney shoots a horse, and gets himself a career. " — Slant Magazine
Posted Feb 11, 2005
—— Sex and the City: The Sixth Season - Part 2 (2004) " Pretty and neatly wrapped, if Tiffany did television, this is how it'd be done." — Slant Magazine
Posted Dec 30, 2004
4/5 97% The Iron Giant (1999) " The kind of movie that Disney should be making, if they were still doing their job." — Elites TV
Posted Nov 15, 2004
4/5 95% Before Sunset (2004) " Fortunately, lightning has struck twice..." — Elites TV
Posted Nov 15, 2004
5/5 100% Dr. Strangelove Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964) " The last Stanley Kubrick film that had any real juice to it ... very simply the last word in Cold War satire." — Elites TV
Posted Nov 15, 2004
—— Wire - The Complete First Season (2004) " The best crime show out there, deserving of any and all hype." — Slant Magazine
Posted Oct 19, 2004
98% Eyes Without a Face (1962) " Well-rendered package for this creepy but somewhat underwhelming film." — Slant Magazine
Posted Oct 11, 2004
88% Clerks (1994) " If you want anything more out of a DVD, than there's just no pleasing you." — Slant Magazine
