Rating T-Meter Title | Year Add Date
4/5 78% The Dirties (2013) " A masterful blend of black humor and queasy dread ..." — Los Angeles Times
Posted Oct 3, 2013
3.5/5 68% Bad Milo! (2013) " "Bad Milo!" is a cult classic in the making." — Los Angeles Times
Posted Oct 3, 2013
2.5/5 45% Men at Lunch (2013) " Regrettably, "Men at Lunch" obsesses over disappearing ghosts instead of the records we already have and the history we should know." — Los Angeles Times
Posted Oct 3, 2013
—— Walter: Lessons from the World's Oldest People (2013) " [A] dim-witted and embarrassing first-person documentary ..." — Village Voice
Posted Oct 1, 2013
3.5/5 —— The Spy () " Regrettably, the subtitles fail to capture Sul and Moon's witty wordplay - but their snappy, prickly chemistry is obvious to all." — Los Angeles Times
Posted Sep 26, 2013
3.5/5 100% On The Job (2013) " Despite the relative flatness of [the] characters - their relationships to one another are more archetypal than particular - the film is as heartbreaking as it is heart-stopping." — Los Angeles Times
Posted Sep 26, 2013
2/5 43% Wedding Palace (2013) " The genre elements of the romantic comedy "Wedding Palace" attempt a transpacific transit, but get lost in translation." — Los Angeles Times
Posted Sep 26, 2013
2/5 60% +1 (2013) " In trying to say everything, "Plus One" reveals it doesn't have much to say at all." — Los Angeles Times
Posted Sep 19, 2013
2/5 14% The Colony (2013) " The film strands its archetypal characters in a featureless danger zone and gives them overly familiar dialogue borrowed from a dozen other B-movies." — Los Angeles Times
Posted Sep 19, 2013
50% Thanks For Sharing (2013) " A winsome mix of funny, harrowing, and smart, it's most commendable for making characters who are addicted to bad behavior-and who refuse to blame themselves for it-somehow exceedingly sympathetic." — Village Voice
Posted Sep 17, 2013
2/5 —— A Strange Brand Of Happy (2013) " There's nothing strange about David's happiness - and nothing compelling either." — Los Angeles Times
Posted Sep 13, 2013
2.5/5 92% Sample This (2013) " The film offers disappointingly little insight into the music itself." — Los Angeles Times
Posted Sep 12, 2013
2.5/5 29% Tio Papi (2013) " Dedio undoubtedly wrote Ray Ray as a star turn, but the character is so forcefully written to be likable - in this case, as a nebulously defined everyman - that he never feels human enough to empathize with." — Los Angeles Times
Posted Sep 5, 2013
1/5 —— 36 Saints (2013) " An especially hollow Armageddon, in which the final battle between good and evil is as flavorless and thinly structured as a Communion wafer." — Los Angeles Times
Posted Sep 5, 2013
2/5 44% Bounty Killer (2013) " Flat jokes, uneven performances, and a predictable romance help make "Bounty Killer" a lot less fun than it should be - a killer shame, given its boldly gonzo premise." — Los Angeles Times
Posted Sep 5, 2013
60% La Maison De La Radio (2013) " La Maison de la Radio is the kind of film that divides its audience into two camps: those happy to observe and those impatient to be told a story." — Village Voice
Posted Sep 3, 2013
3/5 —— Go Grandriders (2013) " A sweet, slight documentary chronicling the two-week, 730-mile journey by scooter a handful of adventure-seeking seniors take around the perimeter of Taiwan." — Los Angeles Times
Posted Aug 22, 2013
2/5 62% Scenic Route (2013) " Mitchell and Carter never extend beyond the archetypes of Unhappy Family Man and Bitter Failed Artist. Nor do Duhamel and Fogler's inconsistent performances breathe life into their flat characters." — Los Angeles Times
Posted Aug 22, 2013
99% Short Term 12 (2013) " Easily one of the best films so far this year, it's a nearly perfect blend of pimple-faced naturalism, righteous moral fury, nuanced social insight, and unsentimental but devastating drama." — Village Voice
Posted Aug 20, 2013
47% We're The Millers (2013) " This film's eagerness to please functions as a slow poison, draining The Millers of its vitality by rendering its characterization uneven, its potential undeveloped, and its plot predictable and stupid." — Village Voice
Posted Aug 7, 2013
60% Breakup at a Wedding (2013) " Quinaz shot the film days before his own wedding, and perhaps that explains Breakup's soft, squishy heart: It can't help but melt." — Village Voice
Posted Jul 30, 2013
62% Broken (2013) " Unfortunately, Broken lives up to its mawkish title, and the slice-of-life tragedies of the film's first half devolve into manipulative melodrama in the latter part." — Village Voice
Posted Jul 16, 2013
36% The Hot Flashes (2013) " [Brooke Shields'] plodding performance brings the film down as ineluctably as gravity on the female body. " — Village Voice
Posted Jul 10, 2013
85% The Way Way Back (2013) " The Way, Way Back is a crowd-pleasing summer treat, predictable in its sweetness but satisfying all the same." — Village Voice
Posted Jul 2, 2013
76% The Kings of Summer (2013) " As nostalgic projections of boyish freedom by a couple of thirtysomething dudes, the so-called kings are good-enough jesters, but I couldn't help wishing they would shut up more and let the grown-ups talk." — Village Voice
Posted May 28, 2013
100% Elemental (2013) " The insightful contrasts within the aggregate picture make up for the film's leisurely pace and lack of narrative propulsion." — Village Voice
Posted May 14, 2013
27% 33 Postcards (2013) " The script's programmatic feel-goodery smooths out everything strange and noteworthy about Dean and Mei Mei's relationship into an unmemorable and unconvincing blandness." — Village Voice
Posted May 14, 2013
—— Wuss (2013) " A witty black comedy with sociological aspirations that hits unexpected emotional marks while nimbly sidestepping clichés." — Village Voice
Posted Apr 30, 2013
67% Free The Mind (2013) " Devotees may enjoy seeing their practice in (proverbial) action, but the veterans' therapy is too short and qualitatively evaluated to convince skeptics or would-be recruits." — Village Voice
Posted Apr 30, 2013
25% Aroused (2013) " Aspires to be a consciousness-raising documentary but is only as deep as a tube of lipstick ..." — Village Voice
Posted Apr 30, 2013
54% Oblivion (2013) " Ultimately, Oblivion is aptly named - no other movie so far this year has been so instantly forgettable." — Screen Junkies
Posted Apr 23, 2013
6/10 38% The Guilt Trip (2012) " The film's feel-good message is undermined by its ultimate purpose: As a vindication of the rights of Jewish mothers to annoy their children as much as they please." — Movieline
Posted Dec 20, 2012
4/10 38% Here Comes the Boom (2012) " James creates a witty, confident everyman in the first act, only to sacrifice him to the pic's demands for formula and sentimentality thereafter." — Movieline
Posted Oct 10, 2012
8.5/10 87% Frankenweenie (2012) " It's probably too early to peg Frankenweenie as Burton's comeback vehicle, but it's certainly the director's best movie in twenty years." — Movieline
Posted Oct 5, 2012
2.5/5 55% Starry Starry Night (2012) " The symbolism is so heavy-handed that the film seems to have anvils for arms" — Boxoffice Magazine
Posted Sep 14, 2012
3.5/5 88% Pink Ribbons, Inc. (2012) " Pink Ribbons is an intelligent and moving account of how capitalism has profited off philanthropy, and how it's hurt cancer patients in the process." — Boxoffice Magazine
Posted Jul 12, 2012
2/5 46% Beyond The Black Rainbow (2012) " 'Beyond' would be more interesting with limitations." — Boxoffice Magazine
