The Weeping Meadow (2004) 68% EDIT “Angelopoulos has, irrespective of his own efforts, acquired a depth granted with age, sacrificing the striking clarity and precision of his earlier work for a contemplative freedom of movement.” – Cinema Scope Nov 8, 2017 Full Review Oki's Movie (2010) 85% EDIT “Happily, Oki's Movie not only sustains the pertinence of Hong's cinema but refracts it through an extra-cinematic device.” – Cinema Scope Nov 8, 2017 Full Review Essential Killing (2010) 77% EDIT “Quite literally, Gallo is the only reason to see Essential Killing, and it's that which guarantees the film's blessedly quick fade from our ever more cluttered horizons.” – Cinema Scope Nov 8, 2017 Full Review Lebanon (2009) 90% EDIT “For all its grim purposefulness Lebanon is aimless and adrift, its rigorous fidelity to its central gimmick -- and ultimately it is nothing more than this -- effacing any true contemplation of the experience, or the representation, of combat.” – Cinema Scope Nov 8, 2017 Full Review Martha Marcy May Marlene (2011) 90% EDIT “Despite its well-learned manoeuvres, Martha Marcy May Marlene remains solidly within the genre territory... ultimately having little to say about its charged subjects beyond the sum of its largely well-turned effects.” – Cinema Scope Nov 8, 2017 Full Review Shame (2011) 79% EDIT “The real shame in all this is the misuse of Fassbender, who acts his stillborn role with fierce intensity and a flagellant's dedication.” – Cinema Scope Nov 8, 2017 Full Review Something in the Air (2012) 81% EDIT “Après mai grows larger, and closer, in the rearview.” – Cinema Scope Nov 8, 2017 Full Review Skyfall (2012) 92% EDIT “What ultimately hobbles Skyfall is its dramatic imbalance at both macro and micro levels.” – Cinema Scope Nov 8, 2017 Full Review Mud (2013) 97% EDIT “Mud feels thoroughly, depressingly familiar in nearly every one of its narrative, thematic, and dramatic beats, even if one can't place a precise predecessor.” – Cinema Scope Nov 7, 2017 Full Review Passion (2012) 36% EDIT “Despite the low vs. high dialectic, Passion is saying nothing of substance about cultural relativism or commodification.” – Cinema Scope Nov 7, 2017 Full Review Only Lovers Left Alive (2013) 86% EDIT “The leadenness of the assorted would-be bon mots is equal to that of late-period Woody Allen (there's even an unfunny slap at Los Angeles), and not helped by their lugubrious delivery.” – Cinema Scope Nov 7, 2017 Full Review Clouds of Sils Maria (2014) 91% EDIT “It's easier to evoke a cinematic tradition through a few italicized stylistic tendencies than it is to convincingly fabricate a modern masterpiece of European drama through a few lines of dialogue.” – Cinema Scope Nov 7, 2017 Full Review Silence (2016) 83% EDIT “Silence is Martin Scorsese's best film in 20 years.” – Cinema Scope Nov 7, 2017 Full Review No Country for Old Men (2007) 93% EDIT “The Coens have engineered a series of setpieces which, on technical merits, are pretty much peerless in light of any recent offerings.” – Reverse Shot Feb 23, 2016 Full Review A Touch of Sin (2013) 95% EDIT “It's that quality of directness, of purpose -- here particularly fierce purpose -- that gives Jia's plays with fiction and nonfiction both their vigour and their political perceptiveness and bite.” – Sight & Sound May 22, 2014 Full Review Exhibition (2013) 85% EDIT “Exhibition proclaims itself to be an assertively front-facing film: an object knowingly placed on view, inviting or challenging us to contemplate it from outside.” – Sight & Sound Apr 28, 2014 Full Review
