Rating	T-Meter	Title \| Year	Add Date
	100%	Seduced And Abandoned ()	" James Toback explores the realities behind the red carpet in this sharp and entertaining documentary." — Hollywood Reporter Posted May 20, 2013
—	——	Mineurs 27 ()	— Hollywood Reporter Posted May 9, 2013
	——	Mood Indigo ()	" Michel Gondry's surreal Gallic dramedy is less a visual feast than an all-you-can-eat buffet, and one that's rather hard to consume." — Hollywood Reporter Posted Apr 23, 2013
	——	Dark Blood (1993)	" Left unfinished when River Phoenix died of drug-related causes in the middle of shooting, this terrifically played and superbly photographed three-hander reveals to what extent the 23-year-old star was an intense and unpredictable talent." — Hollywood Reporter Posted Feb 14, 2013
	——	Rue Mandar ()	" [An] uneven family dramedy." — Hollywood Reporter Posted Jan 27, 2013

	47%	Bullet to the Head (2013)	" A hard-hitting exercise in beefy, brainless fun..." — Hollywood Reporter Posted Nov 14, 2012
	——	Un plan parfait ()	" Uneven follow-up to Heartbreaker offers a similar pitch but significantly less laughs." — Hollywood Reporter Posted Nov 5, 2012
	——	Mr. Pip ()	" Adamson mixes magical realism with hard-hitting historical drama in a way that feels both contrived and questionable, even if the filmmakers clearly have their hearts in the right place." — Hollywood Reporter Posted Sep 12, 2012
	79%	A Late Quartet (2012)	" Strong performances mark a mildly involving tale of four classical musicians hoping to make it to the next season." — Hollywood Reporter Posted Sep 10, 2012
	67%	Cloud Atlas (2012)	" Everything gets homogenized into a blandish whole, the impact of each story softened by the constant need to connect the dots." — Hollywood Reporter Posted Sep 9, 2012
	85%	The Perks of Being a Wallflower (2012)	" Heartfelt but rather generic." — Hollywood Reporter Posted Sep 7, 2012
	95%	Side by Side (2012)	" An engrossing and detailed crash course on the digital revolution." — Hollywood Reporter Posted Jul 20, 2012
	73%	The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)	" Leaping back onto the screen with a new cast, crew, costume and a whole new array of daddy issues, The Amazing Spider-Man reboots the top grossing Marvel franchise to altogether satisfying results." — Hollywood Reporter Posted Jun 21, 2012
—	——	Quand je serai petit ()	— Hollywood Reporter Posted Jun 15, 2012
	——	A Respectable Family ()	" Although ambitions wind up preventing the film from delivering the kind of dramatic knock-out blow of A Separation, there's a similar underlying feeling of hopelessness." — Hollywood Reporter Posted May 24, 2012
	94%	Our Children ()	" This gloomy and penetrating psychological drama should receive steady art house play." — Hollywood Reporter Posted May 24, 2012
	100%	Ernest & Célestine ()	" A bear and a mouse cause a major ruckus in this charming Franco-Belgian animated film." — Hollywood Reporter Posted May 24, 2012
—	43%	7 Days in Havana ()	— Hollywood Reporter Posted May 24, 2012
	92%	Night Across the Street (2013)	" A bizarre and baroque meditation on death, memory and the passage of time that ranks among the director's more cryptic works (of which there are several in his whopping 100+ feature filmography), though it does offer up a few pleasurable moments. " — Hollywood Reporter Posted May 23, 2012
	——	Operation Libertad ()	" The revolution is rather clumsily televised in Operation Libertad, an unconvincing mash-up of found footage filmmaking and 70s leftist nostalgia from Swiss documentarian Nicolas Wadimoff." — Hollywood Reporter Posted May 22, 2012
	——	Journal de France ()	" [Offers] up an enticing amuse-bouche to an artist whose body of work has become essential viewing." — Hollywood Reporter Posted May 22, 2012
	82%	Like Someone in Love (2013)	" The film constantly toys with the expectations of both its characters and the audience, transforming a classic three-way tale of mistaken identities into something much more mysterious and troubling." — Hollywood Reporter Posted May 20, 2012
	82%	Nobody Else But You (2012)	" A quirky murder mystery where the world's most famous blond gets resurrected in rural France." — Hollywood Reporter Posted May 10, 2012

—	——	Bye Bye Blondie ()	— Hollywood Reporter Posted Mar 30, 2012
	35%	The Players (Les infidèles) ()	" Never much more than an extended sketch comedy whose longer segments tend to wear out their welcome." — Hollywood Reporter Posted Feb 28, 2012

—	——	Dorothy Mills (Dorothy) (2009)	— Variety Posted Feb 23, 2012
	59%	La Rafle (2012)	" Turning one of the darkest moments in modern French history into syrupy historical drama, writer-director Rose Bosch's The Round Up is a polished, pathos-driven re-creation of the Vichy regime's mass imprisonment and disposal of 13,000 Parisian Jews." — Variety Posted Feb 23, 2012
