Rating T-Meter Title | Year Add Date
43% Robin Hood (2010) " Scott gives the proceedings an air of sombre importance, resulting in a film that (...) feels strangely laboured and lacking in the pleasure that even the darkest adventure can provide." — France24
Posted Sep 9, 2010
89% Stellet Licht (Silent Light) (2007) " Silent Light is a hard film to love, but it just might be an even harder one to shake." — Film Journal International
Posted Sep 8, 2010
80% The Milk of Sorrow (La Teta Asustada) (2010) " An affecting, gracefully crafted Peruvian film that struggles to breathe under the weight of too much allegory and symbolism." — Film Journal International
Posted Aug 26, 2010
82% Mesrine: Killer Instinct (L'instinct de mort) (2010) " A stylish, fast-moving but disappointingly superficial portrait of a gangster's violent rise to infamy." — Film Journal International
Posted Aug 5, 2010
54% Surveillance (2009) " Jennifer Lynch's nasty little crime procedural is not much more than an exercise, but it's a vivid, smartly executed and refreshingly eccentric one." — Film Journal International
Posted Jun 17, 2009
74% Julia (2009) " After a 10-year absence, French filmmaker Erick Zonca is back with a flawed but gripping English-language thriller powered by a superlative Tilda Swinton." — Film Journal International
Posted Apr 20, 2009
58% Taken (2009) " This French-directed English-language film squanders a fun genre--the kidnapping thriller--in favor of an exceedingly grim and insipid exercise in globetrotting sadism." — Film Journal International
Posted Jan 29, 2009
92% La Graine et le Mulet (The Secret of the Grain) (Couscous) (2007) " A year of uncommonly strong French releases hits its peak with Abdellatif Kechiche's richly entertaining and complex humanistic saga about an extended French-Arab family in the south of France." — Film Journal International
Posted Dec 17, 2008
59% Mary (2008) " Cult director Abel Ferrara bites off more than he can chew with this murky, unfocused exploration of religion and faith in the age of media madness." — Film Journal International
Posted Oct 20, 2008
86% Paris Je T'aime (2007) " The result is an uneven and unwieldy hodgepodge of visions and styles that collectively carry a faint whiff of futility." — Film Journal International
Posted Mar 9, 2007
44% Battle in Heaven (Batalla en el cielo) (2006) " The outcome often amounts to an impressive slideshow instead of a fluid, substantial piece of work that involves and challenges us." — Film Journal International
Posted Mar 1, 2007
76% Time to Leave (Le Temps Qui Reste) (2006) " One gets the feeling while watching Time to Leave that the feisty director is, for the first time, bored by the story he's telling." — Film Journal International
Posted Mar 1, 2007
77% Match Point (2005) " Match Point proves that Allen, at 70 years old, is very much still in the game." — Film Journal International
Posted Mar 1, 2007
60% Lonesome Jim (2006) " As the credits started to roll, I came to a pleasant and all-too-rare moviegoing realization: The smile that had crept across my face during the very first scene had never left." — Film Journal International
Posted Mar 1, 2007
82% Days of Glory (Indigenes) (2007) " Days of Glory is -- disappointingly, but not unsurprisingly -- a dull, plodding war film bursting with noble intentions, but ultimately wearing its agenda a bit too much on its sleeve." — Film Journal International
