Stephen Curry: Underrated (2023) 85% EDIT “If the measure of a good documentary about a superstar athlete is in synthesizing what makes its subject tick, “Stephen Curry: Underrated” gets passing grades.” – Variety Apr 29, 2023 Full Review Endgame (2015) 50% EDIT “Carmen Marron's underdog tale of a Hispanic chess team makes too many predictable moves.” – Variety Sep 25, 2015 Full Review Reset (2015) 20% EDIT “Bojack, making his first film in eight years, seems to have a few too many ideas saved up in his notebook, and is determined to include all of them.” – Variety Aug 6, 2015 Full Review Runoff (2014) 79% EDIT “Levin, who also co-edited, gets naturalistic performances from all her actors, and tells her tale with a narrative economy that, despite the leisurely pace, never lingers too long in a scene.” – Variety Jun 10, 2015 Full Review Playing It Cool (2014) 14% EDIT “A broad romantic comedy that submits the genre to such a rigorous self-examination it nearly tips over into parody - which would have been a good thing.” – Variety May 7, 2015 Full Review 23 Blast (2014) 36% EDIT “A fairly predictable yarn that's lighthearted and well-acted, if cast mostly with characters that are little more than tackling dummies.” – Variety Oct 24, 2014 Full Review No No: A Dockumentary (2014) 97% EDIT “While the film's sense of chronology is at times strained and its tale of redemption hardly unique, its subject is certainly one of a kind.” – Variety Sep 8, 2014 Full Review 4 Minute Mile (2014) 23% EDIT “A by-the-numbers tale of inspiration through perspiration.” – Variety Aug 1, 2014 Full Review Trust Me (2013) 50% EDIT “There's certainly humor running through writer-director-star Clark Gregg's "Trust Me," the tale of an inept agent for child actors; it's just that not all of it feels intentional.” – Variety Jun 8, 2014 Full Review Farmland (2014) 38% EDIT “Though the perspective of farmers is well worth examining, this good-looking 77 minutes of propaganda is heavy on sugar-coating and light on nutritional value.” – Variety May 5, 2014 Full Review Small Time (2014) 56% EDIT “Coming-of-age drama delivers some laughs, but loses its way when things gets serious” – Variety Apr 21, 2014 Full Review Redwood Highway (2013) 89% EDIT “Solid acting overcomes a lack of dynamic tension in this family-friendly film.” – Variety Apr 15, 2014 Full Review Saving Lincoln (2013) 27% EDIT “The script, while largely historically accurate, is undermined by stilted dialogue, and the pic is laced with ill-fitting parts that wind up literally all over the matte.” – Variety Feb 14, 2013 Full Review
