Java Heat |
"
It's violent enough to numb, but Allyn doesn't launch the effort to rousing heights of escapism. In the end, Java Heat works better as a travelogue than an international actioner.

What Richard Did |
"
Isn't shocking in obvious ways, preferring to stun the audience with an authentic atmosphere of guilt and indecision, investing in the frustration of delayed response over unapologetic manipulation.

The Great Gatsby |
"
If you're able to make it through the first party scene at Gatsby's mansion, you'll come out on the other side to find a film of surprising restraint and patience.

No One Lives |

A novel twist, given away early. Otherwise, a generic bloodbath, decently acted but not frightening.

The Great Northfield Minnesota Raid |
"
For all its flaws, The Great Northfield Minnesota Raid is the kind of first movie so rich in texture and invention that we can look forward to a lot more from Philip Kaufman.

Kaufman's own script never gels and the whole exercise, admirable as it is and enlivened by quirky decidedly unwestern like humour, fails to make much dramatic impact.

The Great Northfield Minnesota Raid |

A lovely, odd sort of middle Western. That is, it's neither conventional Western fiction nor completely documented fact, although it makes full use of history and is as crammed with the artifacts of 19th-century America.

The Great Northfield Minnesota Raid |

Interesting for its demonstration of how exploitative capitalism leads simple-minded farmers' boys into outlawry, though somewhat marred by Duvall's manic interpretation of the role of Jesse James.

The Reluctant Fundamentalist |
"
A near perfect masterpiece which tries hard to sprint on three legs but ultimately stumbles due to the weakness of its fourth one ... The problem is the love story. Frankly I'm not sure this film needed a love story, but it has one and it's a disaster.

A large part of what makes this version work is the glacial central presence of Alan Ladd, who's quite convincing as a man with a mysterious past.

There's much to enjoy in 'The Reluctant Fundamentalist': fine photography, juicy supporting turns from Kiefer Sutherland and Om Puri, and a powerfully sustained sense of a man adrift in a world going mad.

Deepa Mehta's radiant film Midnight's Children ... runs approximately 2.5 hours. But for me, the time passed in a flash ... American movie audiences might well relate to [it] as an Indian version of the Oscar-winning film Forrest Gump.
