—— Ucho () New York Times
Posted May 21, 2005
4/5 100% 28 Up (1985) " The effect of 28 Up is to bring a dimension of wisdom and insight to the earlier footage, and in doing this Mr. Apted has been subtle and selective." — New York Times
Posted May 21, 2005

8% Meteor (1979) New York Times
Posted May 9, 2005
2/5 97% Killer of Sheep: The Charles Burnett Collection (2007) " The dialogue, which is read with either insufficient or excessive emphasis by the nonactors, is often buried under a soundtrack of vintage blues, making it doubly hard to follow. Even the slaughter of the sheep is numbingly uneventful." — New York Times

2/5 82% I Wanna Hold Your Hand (1978) " If there's a tray full of food within camera range, rest assured that somebody will knock it over. If a stuck-in-the-elevator-on-the-eve-of-an-important-event routine presents itself, rest assured that its staging will be tried and true." — New York Times
