Rating T-Meter Title | Year Add Date
60% +1 (2013) " Director Dennis Iliadis doesn't overdwell on the existentialism of the concept; he lets emotional beats strobe against the WTF experience of the temporal doubles, peppering the action with distinct images and events to make the repetition stand out." — Village Voice
Posted Sep 18, 2013
60% Ip Man: The Final Fight (2013) " A film that's less a kung-fu movie and more a meditation on kung fu's limitations." — Village Voice
Posted Sep 17, 2013
57% The Frozen Ground (2013) " The Frozen Ground hits the familiar notes." — Village Voice
Posted Aug 20, 2013
62% Scenic Route (2013) " The howl of the desert wind and the unflagging hammer of the sun are the backdrop for every bad decision, lending them a plausibility they wouldn't have in comfort." — Village Voice
Posted Aug 20, 2013
69% Cockneys vs Zombies (2013) " Weightless as a bag of crisps, this matinee fare offers more laughs than scares." — Village Voice
Posted Jul 30, 2013
71% Frankenstein's Army (2013) " Designed by Raaphorst and brought to life by Rogier Samuels's effects studio, Unreal, the half-glimpsed creatures are magnificent and repellent." — Village Voice
Posted Jul 23, 2013
—— The Romeows (2013) " If the film lacks momentum, it's still an hour or so spent among people who obviously love one another. In such company, who would quibble with the cook?" — Village Voice
Posted Jul 18, 2013
87% 100 Bloody Acres (2013) " Playing like a Down Under Elmore Leonard novel, 100 Bloody Acres features lucky breaks and quick reverses; a persistent soundtrack of Aussie oldies helps keep the mood cheery, despite a literal vatful of blood." — Village Voice
Posted Jun 25, 2013
52% Hatchet III (2013) " If you don't like sequels where the title's Roman numerals are rendered in jagged slashes of blood, this isn't for you." — Village Voice
Posted Jun 11, 2013
— —— Prey (2010) — Village Voice
Posted Jun 6, 2013
63% The Prey (2013) " If the thrills it yields are expected ones, the pleasure in the formula remains. " — Village Voice
Posted Jun 4, 2013
13% Hello Herman (2012) " The dialogue is all surface: Emotions are laid out on the autopsy table for the audience to dissect and analyze, but rarely feel." — Village Voice
Posted Jun 4, 2013
—— Re-emerging: The Jews Of Nigeria (2013) " Admirably, the film gives skeptics their say, however briefly. Yet in the face of the authenticity of Shmuel's faith, the evidence for or against the Judaic heritage of the Igbo is beside the point." — Village Voice
Posted May 14, 2013
—— The Second Meeting (2013) " Moments in The Second Meeting command attention-largely interviews about the combat-but where the present is concerned, the film is more greeting card than documentary, meandering into a cheery haze." — Village Voice
Posted May 9, 2013
—— Hamesima X (2013) " The mysticism chokes a bit on its own tail, but is tempered by the underlying human drama." — Village Voice
