Rating	T-Meter	Title \| Year	Add Date
3.5/4	77%	Augustine (2013)	" Alice Winocour's take on this true story carries the superficial trappings of a period drama, but its perspective is entirely contemporary." — Slant Magazine Posted May 12, 2013
	80%	Only The Young (2012)	" It makes perfect sense for Oscilloscope to release Only The Young and Tchoupitoulas together. Both beautifully portray youthful exuberance in American landscapes that are changing as quickly as the films' adolescent subjects." — Slant Magazine Posted May 2, 2013
1.5/4	68%	The Iceman (2013)	" Michael Shannon has no interior to play with, since the film seems intent on ridding Richie of any emotion other than love for his family, and also no catharsis to build toward." — Slant Magazine Posted Apr 29, 2013
2.5/4	24%	Arthur Newman (2013)	" Throughout Dante Ariola's film, the expressions of the false-identity theme are multitudinous, and about as subtle as Wallace's choice for a new last name." — Slant Magazine Posted Apr 24, 2013
1/4	30%	The Numbers Station (2013)	" Sits awkwardly between shoot 'em up and psychological thriller without offering the excitement of either." — Slant Magazine Posted Apr 21, 2013
1/4	67%	Disconnect (2013)	" Fails not so much because of its occasional self-seriousness or didacticism than it does from a scattered plot that makes the story's overriding theme or message difficult to grasp." — Slant Magazine Posted Apr 7, 2013
3/4	75%	Simon Killer (2013)	" The film has many elements of a thriller, but ultimately Antonio Campos's interest lies much more in profiling, yet never over-determining, his moody protagonist." — Slant Magazine Posted Mar 31, 2013
2.5/4	——	Our Nixon ()	" The videos fail in their promise of revealing intimate moments, but the doc highlights how close Nixon, Haldeman, Ehrlichman, and Chapin were in other ways. " — Slant Magazine Posted Mar 17, 2013
3.5/4	100%	Blue Caprice ()	" The filmmakers are more interested in questioning what brings people to commit senseless and merciless acts than they are preoccupied with the historical record." — Slant Magazine Posted Mar 16, 2013
1.5/4	65%	Starbuck (2013)	" Yet another example of modern-family predicaments getting stuffed into the traditional-family-values message of conventional comedies." — Slant Magazine Posted Mar 16, 2013
3/4	89%	A Place at the Table (2013)	" More difficult to convey are the web of moral and political issues that surround the hunger crisis, and A Place at the Table proves its worth most by how it treats this wider set of problems." — Slant Magazine Posted Feb 23, 2013
2/2	52%	The Playroom (2013)	" Lacking much in the way of character depth, the film attempts to fill the gap with melodrama." — Slant Magazine Posted Feb 4, 2013
2.5/4	——	Sudoeste (Southwest) ()	" The inscrutability of the plot, intriguing at first, is ultimately impenetrable. " — Slant Magazine Posted Jan 12, 2013
.5/4	18%	Parental Guidance (2012)	" Offers a confused and flat portrayal of generational differences." — Slant Magazine Posted Dec 24, 2012
3/4	95%	West of Memphis (2012)	" By taking a disturbing and sometimes conflicted look at the prejudices that led to the West Memphis Three's imprisonment, it asks murky questions about how people could get something so wrong for so long." — Slant Magazine Posted Dec 19, 2012
1/4	35%	Cheerful Weather For The Wedding (2012)	" The Donald Rice film suffers most from an excessively blunt approach." — Slant Magazine Posted Dec 6, 2012
1.5/4	64%	The Fitzgerald Family Christmas (2012)	" Edward Burns certainly doles out his fair share of family turmoil, but he admirably doesn't make lunatics out of his characters. " — Slant Magazine Posted Dec 2, 2012
2.5/4	67%	California Solo (2012)	" Robert Carlyle's performance compensates for the film's less successful elements and even makes you wonder if they might be strengths." — Slant Magazine Posted Nov 24, 2012
2.5/4	98%	Mea Maxima Culpa: Silence In The House Of God (2012)	" Alex Gibney's latest lacks a certain cinematic depth, but that doesn't take away from its admirable reporting." — Slant Magazine Posted Nov 11, 2012
.5/4	5%	Nature Calls (2012)	" Writer-director Todd Rohal fills muddled scenes with manic amounts of jokes that all manage to land with a thud. " — Slant Magazine Posted Nov 6, 2012
2.5/4	96%	Chasing Ice (2012)	" If you need it, the doc offers a devastating, and often beautifully shot, reality check." — Slant Magazine Posted Nov 3, 2012
1.5/4	71%	We Are Legion: The Story of the Hacktivists (2012)	" The doc's straightforward and chronological structure is its own worst enemy." — Slant Magazine Posted Oct 14, 2012
3/4	82%	Two Years at Sea (2012)	" The stillness and silence with which we look upon Jake Williams ranges from curious to unnerving to fascinating. " — Slant Magazine Posted Oct 5, 2012
1/4	0%	Trade of Innocents (2012)	" Trade of Innocents is as much a piece of social-justice campaigning as it is a work unto itself, an important fact to remember when considering its many flaws." — Slant Magazine Posted Sep 29, 2012
