Rating T-Meter Title | Year Add Date
—— The Spy: Undercover Operation (2013) " The sort of film that lives in between where True Lies meets Get Smart, and quite fun." — National Post
Posted Oct 3, 2013
1/4 16% Baggage Claim (2013) " "First of all, this is the stupidest idea ever," someone says, in Baggage Claim. Unfortunately, nobody listened." — National Post
Posted Sep 27, 2013
1.5/4 60% Filthy Gorgeous: The Bob Guccione Story () " A remarkably incurious feature length documentary, it takes everything Guccione's friends, family and associates have to say at him at face value." — National Post
Posted Sep 20, 2013
1/4 31% Austenland (2013) " It would behoove those who produced this lamentable drama to re-read [Austen's] major works, if indeed they had ever read them at all." — National Post
Posted Sep 19, 2013
3.5/4 91% Far Out Isn't Far Enough: The Tomi Ungerer Story (2013) " The art floats and comes to life, animated and illustrating the flights of fantasy that continue unabated at [Ungerer] studio." — National Post
Posted Aug 30, 2013
—— The Venice Syndrome (Das Venedig Prinzip) () " Pichler captures the sense of resignation from all angles, through several residents. " — National Post
Posted Jul 25, 2013
3.5/4 92% Museum Hours (2013) " It peers into the twin galleries of art and life, and in particular follows the brief intersection of lives between a security guard (Bobby Sommer) and Anne, one of the museum's regular visitors (Mary Margaret O'Hara)." — National Post
Posted Jul 11, 2013
3/4 91% My Brother The Devil (2013) " The attention El Hosaini gives to the physical structures in this neighbourhood is a poignant reminder of the lack of focus there generally is on the people who live inside them." — National Post
Posted Jun 28, 2013
2.5/4 72% How To Make Money Selling Drugs (2013) " Once you've made your point, don't digress into a last-minute lecture on alcohol and tobacco, taxation of pharmaceutical drugs or addiction. This complete shift in tone will lose the audience." — National Post
Posted Jun 27, 2013
1.5/4 59% The Bling Ring (2013) " The most curious thing about this movie is that as the cautionary tale it so clearly wants to be, it fails." — National Post
Posted Jun 20, 2013
4/4 84% Much Ado About Nothing (2013) " This invigorated play is more Frank Capra than Kenneth Brannagh, and reminds me just how much 1930s screwball comedies were in debt to the Bard of Avon." — National Post
Posted Jun 20, 2013
2/4 —— Bruce Cockburn Pacing The Cage () " It's not a concert documentary, and... [it's] not a biopic, a eulogy or as flattering as it is, even really a tribute. If anything, it's like the space between songs on an album, a moment of reflection." — National Post
Posted May 24, 2013
45% Men at Lunch (2013) " Whether it merits a feature-length documentary or a slot on PBS, I'm not sure." — National Post
Posted Apr 18, 2013
2.5/4 72% Renoir (2013) " At least the French art house biopic is rich in ambiance." — National Post
Posted Apr 11, 2013
3.5/4 56% Love, Marilyn (2012) " The monologues are like exercises from the star's beloved Actors Studio, performances of emotional facets. For the most part these are effectively stark, tender, childlike and raw." — National Post
Posted Apr 5, 2013
1.5/5 29% Emperor (2013) " Emperor missed the opportunity to become an engrossing procedural of historic minutiae, like Lincoln." — National Post
Posted Mar 29, 2013
86% Birth Story: Ina May Gaskin and The Farm Midwives (2013) " It's interesting how in retrospect what [Gaskin] espouses, something so simple could be considered radical. Yet Sara Lamm and Mary Wigmore's documentary Birth Story makes that very point." — National Post
Posted Mar 28, 2013
2/5 —— Mad Ship () " There are many other fine moments of cinematic poetry, if only Marshall could be more consistent with them." — National Post
Posted Mar 28, 2013
2/5 28% Knife Fight (2013) " For all the knowing monologues mentioning tax breaks for the rich and diet drinks for the poor, Knife Fight feels squeaky-clean -- a remedial spin class that tells more than it shows." — National Post
Posted Jan 25, 2013
2.5/4 83% Berberian Sound Studio (2013) " The narrative rule of thumb is show, don't tell, but this film does the opposite, to sinister effect." — National Post
Posted Jan 22, 2013
2.5/4 73% Gainsbourg: A Heroic Life (2011) " What elevates Gainsbourg above Behind The Music territory is that peppered with his songs, something the Gainsbourg family has never let any other biographical feature do." — National Post
