89% | Cast Away (2000) |
Wilson jokes aside, Robert Zemeckis's Castaway is a surprisingly haunting movie about what it's like to be alone on a deserted island for a very long time. - Vice

80% | Letter Never Sent (Neotpravlennoye pismo) (1959) |
Letter Never Sent is a dark, brooding film that doubles as a subtle parody of Soviet Union ideals like altruism and resolve. - Vice

2.5/4 | 76% | Disneynature Chimpanzee (2012) |
Combines breathtaking wildlife footage with silly, self-conscious voiceover narration aimed at preschoolers. - Boston Phoenix

3/4 | No Score Yet | Anita (2009) |
Much of the credit is due to Ms. Manzo, whose performance is so authentically realized that it eclipses Carnevale's uneven art design and occasionally clunky camerawork. - Boston Phoenix

1.5/4 | 7% | Losing Control (2012) |
With its labored parade of polygamists, neurotic Jewish parents, and projectile semen explosions, Control offers nothing new. This one should have stayed in a test tube. - Boston Phoenix

2/4 | 67% | The Ballad of Genesis and Lady Jaye (2012) |
The blasé result feels like a great disservice to P-Orridge, who conducts himself with genuine grace. - Boston Phoenix
