Rating	T-Meter	Title \| Year	Add Date
	62%	The Awakening (2012)	" Nick Murphy's bigscreen directorial debut has good atmospherics that only go so far to prop up a mystery whose overdue explanation is convoluted and underwhelming." — Variety Posted Aug 6, 2012
	20%	Craigslist Joe (2012)	" The briskly edited docu seldom stops long enough to let Joe's new friends (identified only by first name) make anything beyond the most superficial impressions." — Variety Posted Aug 3, 2012
	0%	Assassin's Bullet (2012)	" Much of this makes little sense, but it's hard to care." — Variety Posted Aug 1, 2012
—	——	Stud Life ()	— Variety Posted Jun 26, 2012
	——	Strong! (2012)	" An engaging subject and a seldom-scrutinized athletic competition make Julie Wyman's documentary a fun watch, even though there's ultimately not a great deal of narrative drive or deeper insight." — Variety Posted Jun 26, 2012
—	——	Zenne (Zenne Dancer) ()	— Variety Posted Jun 26, 2012
—	——	Unconditional (2013)	— Variety Posted Jun 26, 2012
	50%	Sassy Pants (2012)	" Landing between the twee, naturalistic and formulaic, Sassy Pants settles for cute, taking too few gambles to make a more lasting impression." — Variety Posted Jun 22, 2012
	89%	OC87: The Obsessive Compulsive, Major Depression, Bipolar, Asperger's Movie (2012)	" [An] engaging mix of diaristic, interview-based and whimsical elements." — Variety Posted Jun 21, 2012
—	——	The Dark Side of Love (2012)	— Variety Posted Jun 21, 2012
—	——	D'Agostino (2013)	— Variety Posted Jun 21, 2012
	0%	For the Love of Money (2012)	" An attempted Scorsese-esque crime epic that too often feels like an underdeveloped outline." — Variety Posted Jun 8, 2012
	22%	6 Month Rule (2012)	" Funny and fresh." — Variety Posted Jun 8, 2012
	58%	U.N. Me (2012)	" These japes only do a disservice to the film's many serious allegations." — Variety Posted Jun 5, 2012
—	——	El Gringo (2012)	— Variety Posted May 11, 2012
	——	The Philly Kid (2012)	" Formulaic, functional guys'-night-in entertainment." — Variety Posted May 10, 2012
	——	Stash House (2012)	" Despite a decent premise, the pic's pedestrian execution and uninvolving characters make it a passable time-filler at best." — Variety Posted May 10, 2012
—	——	California, 90420 (2012)	— Variety Posted May 9, 2012
	——	Dragon Eyes (2012)	" Maintaining an admirably straight face, this fist-flying flashback is good fun for fanboy types who take its myriad absurdities with the requisite grain of salt." — Variety Posted May 8, 2012
—	——	The Beatles: The Lost Concert (2012)	— Variety Posted May 8, 2012
	0%	Nesting (2012)	" The script unfortunately suffers from its own case of arrested development, barely getting out of the gate before stalling, and never building enough laughs or narrative impetus to justify feature length." — Variety Posted May 8, 2012
—	68%	Step Up To The Plate (2012)	— Variety Posted May 8, 2012
	43%	Transit (2012)	" It's no Cape Fear, but it gets the job done with a certain bloody efficiency." — Variety Posted May 8, 2012
—	——	Gina Yashere: Skinny B*tch ()	— Variety Posted May 3, 2012
	29%	The Trouble with Bliss (2012)	" The difficulties of adapting idiosyncratic literature to the screen are all too apparent in The Trouble With Bliss." — Variety Posted Mar 23, 2012
	0%	Reuniting The Rubins (2012)	" Theoretical laughter, tears and maudlin contrivance ensue." — Variety Posted Mar 23, 2012
