56 Up (2012) 98% 8.3/10 EDIT “Being able to view this slice of life (no matter how contrived or edited it may be by the shows producers) provides an enjoyable and provocative perspective into humanity.” – Paste Magazine Jan 4, 2013 Full Review Mea Maxima Culpa: Silence in the House of God (2012) 98% 8.5/10 EDIT “Even though Mea Maxima Culpa can be incredibly sad and frustrating, the film is able to go beyond the tragedy of these boys' lost childhoods, using that empathy to incite anger, impatience and action in its audience.” – Paste Magazine Nov 29, 2012 Full Review Decoding Deepak (2012) 55% 5.4/10 EDIT “Tthe film feels amateurish and leaves a lot to be desired as a documentary on one of the world's biggest spiritual icons.” – Paste Magazine Nov 9, 2012 Full Review Holy Motors (2012) 91% 6.9/10 EDIT “A fascinating and heartbreaking study of humanity, one leavened with a refreshing levity and humor that makes Carax's philosophy on life not only palatable, but thoroughly enjoyable.” – Paste Magazine Nov 9, 2012 Full Review The Other Dream Team (2012) 88% 7.3/10 EDIT “Markevicius vividly paints an inspiring picture of a group of men overcoming great political hurdles in order to bring pride back to a country that had been broken for decades and blaze a path for future generations.” – Paste Magazine Oct 5, 2012 Full Review Meet the Fokkens (2011) 94% 6.7/10 EDIT “Despite the pleasure of spending a little over an hour with these two warm, loving women, Meet the Fokkens often falters as a film.” – Paste Magazine Aug 16, 2012 Full Review American Animal (2011) 59% 5.1/10 EDIT “This ending helps make American Animal a thought-provoking debut film that, though in need of further development and refinement, shows a lot of promise.” – Paste Magazine May 14, 2012 Full Review God Bless America (2011) 66% 7.1/10 EDIT “A wonderfully sharp, funny film that fights tooth and nail against what is considered de rigueur behavior in modern life.” – Paste Magazine May 11, 2012 Full Review First Position (2011) 93% 6.7/10 EDIT “An interesting look into the intense labor these children put into crafting performances that are meant to look beautiful and effortless. That being said, the documentary offers no real surprises.” – Paste Magazine May 3, 2012 Full Review Detachment (2011) 59% 5.9/10 EDIT “Detachment is a powerful, incisive and emotionally stirring film that provides keen insight into an over-saturated topic.” – Paste Magazine Mar 26, 2012 Full Review
