Rating T-Meter Title | Year Add Date
A 98% Before Midnight (2013) " Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy come off as if they were conjoined for the past nine years in the gloriously-acted, hypnotically-conversational conclusion to the Before Sunrise trilogy -- the year's first legit contender for awards season love." — NECN
Posted May 28, 2013
A 69% The Croods (2013) " The Croods is the most entertaining film of the year thus far -- a Neolithic knockout." — NECN
Posted Mar 21, 2013

Posted Feb 1, 2013
A 88% Django Unchained (2012) " At a shade under three hours, Django Unchained never once feels that length...a testament to the ferocity of Tarantino's fantastically unmannerly concoction." — NECN
Posted Dec 25, 2012
A 69% Les Misérables (2012) " This is filmmaking of the most opulent order -- par excellence." — NECN
Posted Dec 25, 2012
A 96% Argo (2012) " The impeccably paced political thriller further affirms the fact that Affleck is a towering force behind the lens." — NECN
Posted Oct 9, 2012
A 85% The Master (2012) " Phoenix is back in a behemothic way with his magnum opus in The Master, a blindingly brilliant character study from cinema's most prodigiously skilled auteur, Paul Thomas Anderson." — NECN
Posted Sep 21, 2012
A 96% The Muppets (2011) " A luminous and loving tribute to the man who breathed life into nothing but felt and faux fur." — NECN
Posted Sep 4, 2012
A 89% The Descendants (2011) " A thoroughly rewarding assembled-for-adults dramedy that benefits immensely from both its island locale and one of George Clooney's finest performances." — NECN
Posted Aug 27, 2012
A 92% The Cabin in the Woods (2012) " The most maniacal monster movie ever created." — NECN
Posted Aug 25, 2012
A 94% Coriolanus (2011) " If this is how Fiennes rolls behind the camera, our next great director has raised his fist to the skies." — NECN
Posted Aug 24, 2012
A 99% Jiro Dreams of Sushi (2012) " If the ultimate goal of a documentary is to drop you into a location and make you feel it as if you were actually there, consider this the most scrumptious trip to Tokyo you'll ever take." — NECN
Posted Aug 24, 2012
A 93% Drive (2011) " With a titanic infusion of pound-feet of torque, Drive is the best movie of 2011, a raging race that's part F1 and equal part demolition derby." — NECN
Posted Aug 24, 2012
A- 62% Epic (2013) " Though Epic walks a woefully-worn, save-the-planet path, it manages to feel fresh, even when drawing inspiration directly from Alice in Wonderland, Avatar and The Lord of the Rings." — NECN
Posted May 21, 2013
A- 50% The Great Gatsby (2013) " A visually-stunning, theatrically-showy spectacle that's as lavishly grandiose as one of Gatsby's grotesquely over-the-top shindigs." — NECN
Posted May 10, 2013
A- 65% Spring Breakers (2013) " Korine kills it with a Britney Spears-backed montage of the pretty little gangsters protecting Franco's drug-trafficking turf. Gun-toting teens clad in string bikinis passing for high art? Indubitably." — NECN
Posted Mar 22, 2013
A- 80% Warm Bodies (2013) " It's hard to beat a brain-eating scene with John Waits' "Missing You" blaring in the background, the '80s ode to the forlorn has never sounded so grotesquely poignant." — NECN
Posted Jan 22, 2013
A- 93% Zero Dark Thirty (2013) " While it's executed with the same level of meticulous precision as the raid itself, you can't help but wonder if Bigelow could have compressed things just a bit." — NECN
Posted Jan 11, 2013
A- 63% Anna Karenina (2012) " Breaking down the walls - literally - Wright has served up a silver screen stunner. Cue the standing ovation." — NECN
Posted Nov 15, 2012
A- 89% Lincoln (2012) " Day-Lewis doesn't play Abraham Lincoln, he is Abraham Lincoln in a performance that will have you seriously questioning if what you're watching is a documentary shot in the 1860s." — NECN
Posted Nov 9, 2012
A- 92% Skyfall (2012) " With the onset of the sublime Skyfall, Daniel Craig officially wrests the title of "Best Bond Ever" from Connery, the British bulldog delivers a brilliant, bulldozing performance in a cinematic spectacular more streamlined than one of his Tom Ford suits." — NECN
Posted Nov 6, 2012
A- 94% Hugo (2011) " A luminous triumph that may just remind you why our hearts leap when the lights go down in a movie theater." — NECN
Posted Oct 22, 2012

Posted Oct 22, 2012
A- 78% Brave (2012) " The hopping lamp gang has done it again, giving birth to a sharp, fresh fairy tale that in the pantheon of Pixar releases may not go down as a centerpiece, but comes close enough to the bullseye to sate moviegoing subjects kingdom-wide." — NECN
Posted Oct 22, 2012
A- 95% Sister (2012) " Director Ursula Meier reveals a whopper of a twist that packs the impact of a piledriver performed on top of a folding table." — NECN
Posted Oct 19, 2012

Posted Sep 18, 2012

Posted Sep 4, 2012
A- 93% Midnight in Paris (2011) " The fact that Allen never explains how Bender bends time is a wise choice, there's no bogging down of the narrative which allows the flick to keep skipping along at a effervescent pace." — NECN
Posted Aug 27, 2012
A- 90% Martha Marcy May Marlene (2011) " A disturbing psychological drama that's guaranteed to rack up more and more followers as its menacing message is spread." — NECN
Posted Aug 25, 2012
A- 84% My Week with Marilyn (2011) " The film hinges on Williams' performance and not once do you question that she is Monroe. It's that "all-in" that makes the film work in such fantastic fashion. " — NECN
Posted Aug 25, 2012
A- 99% A Separation (2011) " A case study in how simplicity can produce spectacular results that extend far beyond a film's budget. " — NECN
Posted Aug 25, 2012

Posted Aug 24, 2012
A- 84% The Raid: Redemption (2012) " An electrifyingly kinetic and insanely frenetic action flick stacked with a level of violence at which the makers of Grand Theft Auto would marvel." — NECN
Posted Aug 24, 2012

Posted Aug 24, 2012
A- 75% The Intouchables (2012) " Roaring onto the screen via a Maserati racing through the tunnels of Paris, if first impressions are everything, The Intouchables makes a mockery of the test." — NECN
Posted Aug 24, 2012
A- 87% Easy Money (2012) " Kinnaman is a revelation as the in-over-his-head dreamer; witnessing his comeuppance as his world collapses down around him is spellbinding cinema. " — NECN
Posted Aug 24, 2012
B+ 85% This Is the End (2013) " A rapturously-riotous, celeb-skewering raunchfest." — NECN
Posted Jun 12, 2013
B+ 68% Trance (2013) " The film's sensory experience is too alluring to resist, Boyle salvaging his unduly swirly story with a slathering of his shimmering, sumptuous aesthetics." — NECN
Posted Apr 9, 2013
B+ 81% The Place Beyond The Pines (2013) " While Cianfrance's overambitious narrative and Crash-y conclusion come perilously close to bringing the film to its knees, the electrifying first half more than compensates. " — NECN
Posted Mar 5, 2013
B+ 32% Gangster Squad (2013) " It's the premium cast that redeems the project. " — NECN
Posted Jan 11, 2013
B+ 65% The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012) " Packed with crescendos and crap-outs, Peter Jackson's mega-bloated beginning to Bilbo Baggins' pilgrimage across Middle-earth to Lonely Mountain both awes and bores." — NECN
Posted Dec 12, 2012
B+ 88% Life of Pi (2012) " Serving up 2012's single most awe-inspiring stanza of cinema, Ang Lee's Life of Pi is a thing of beauty - a gorgeously presented piece of art." — NECN
Posted Nov 22, 2012
B+ 84% Smashed (2012) " Winstead's performance is sure to be remembered come awards season, it packs more punch than a bottle of Bacardi 151." — NECN
Posted Oct 25, 2012
B+ 93% Take Shelter (2011) " While Take Shelter isn't by any means perfect - writer/director Jeff Nichols could use a refresher course on editing - it's a powerful film, displaying a devolvement into insanity that ultimately proves to be quite visionary." — NECN
Posted Oct 22, 2012
B+ 84% Puss in Boots (2011) " Bet the litter box that the cat in the hat will be back, Puss in Boots is fantastic family fun, both kids and adults will lap it up like a cold glass of milk." — NECN
Posted Oct 22, 2012

Posted Sep 26, 2012
B+ 87% Arbitrage (2012) " Primetime dramas share similar plot points, but Gere elevates the proceedings with a positively commanding performance - his finest in ages." — NECN
