53% A.C.O.D. (2013) " Director Stuart Zicherman, who wrote the screenplay for A.C.O.D. with Ben Karlin, must have drawn on his own life here, and he has drawn extremely well, for this is one very funny film. " — Film Journal International

50% Mademoiselle C (2013) " Fabien Constant's doc about ultimate fashionista Carine Roitfeld will be catnip to the style-obsessed, while definitely showing that a lot of hard work goes into those all glossy images one carelessly flips through." — Film Journal International
Posted Sep 12, 2013
92% Sample This (2013) " We've all danced at some time another to the rhythmic "Apache," even if we didn't know it, and this highly enjoyable doc reveals the incredibly colorful and variegated tale behind it." — Film Journal International

Posted Aug 22, 2013
52% Thérèse (2013) " This was the director's swan song, before his death in 2012, and I cannot think of a more glorious way to go out than with this exquisitely rendered, near-perfect and definitively French film." — Film Journal International

Posted Aug 6, 2013
80% Jamel Shabazz Street Photographer () " Taken in its entirety, this celebration of a pioneering visionary-who never knew that he was one at the time-is a highly worthy endeavor. " — Film Journal International
Posted Aug 2, 2013
57% When Comedy Went to School (2013) " The brilliant Robert Klein narrates with knowing affection, but despite the wonderful archival footage and painstaking assemblage of these surviving showbiz dinosaurs, the film isn't quite the rich, humorous feast one would have hoped for." — Film Journal International
Posted Aug 1, 2013
84% Smash & Grab: The Story of the Pink Panthers (2013) " Havana Marking's documentary ... purports to be a true-life detailing of such felons, but is far less engaging, And due to certain directorial choices, it also comes across as somewhat factually dubious. " — Film Journal International
Posted Aug 1, 2013
52% The To Do List (2013) " At long last, equal time has finally arrived for the ladies with The To Do List, which goes just as far as most male-oriented teen sex comedies, except its raunch and gross-out humor are actually funny and, yes, fully empowering." — Film Journal International

Posted Jul 19, 2013
37% Dealing With Idiots (2013) " Much of Dealin' with Idiots feels improvised, which is okay when the actors are fully on their game.

Posted Jul 18, 2013

Posted Jul 8, 2013
58% Stuck in Love (2013) " But all too soon, Boone's questionable taste level and constant, very self-conscious but none-too-deep emphasis on the what, how and why of Writers becomes oppressive and extremely precious." — Film Journal International

Posted Jun 28, 2013

Posted May 31, 2013
17% A Green Story (2013) " A highly admiring documentary might have been preferable to this highly admiring feature which paints a blandly noble portrait of a worthy pioneer in the ecology business." — Film Journal International
Posted May 24, 2013
76% The Kings of Summer (2013) " Working with Chris Galletta's disarming, quirky and often very funny script, Jordan Vogt-Roberts creates a coming-of-age tale which, while occasionally whimsically veering off into the land of twee, nevertheless mostly feels bracingly fresh." — Film Journal International
Posted May 23, 2013
20% Pilgrim Song (2013) " Tedium on the Trail could be the alternative title for this logy trek through the woods." — Film Journal International
Posted May 17, 2013
80% Becoming Traviata (2013) " A clumsy and sadly missed opportunity to capture the creation of a great opera role by a great singer." — Film Journal International
