Air Racers (2012) EDIT “Shot mostly at the Reno Championship races, this rather superficial documentary was completed before last year's race in which 12 people were killed in a horrendous accident. The aerial photography excels, but the script disappoints as a minor puff piece.” – Film Journal International Apr 6, 2012 Full Review The Flowers of War (2011) 41% EDIT “The Flowers of War will likely be remembered as a triumph of the genre.” – Film Journal International Dec 21, 2011 Full Review Margin Call (2011) 87% EDIT “An investment firm facing extinction in the 2008 fiscal crisis has less than a day to navigate its inevitable crash. Writer-director J.C. Chandor's debut feature is as powerful as it is topical.” – Film Journal International Oct 17, 2011 Full Review American Violet (2008) 75% EDIT “Based on the true story of a racist raid in rural Texas during the 2000 Presidential election, American Violet suffers from a routine script and flat direction.” – Film Journal International Apr 8, 2009 Full Review Under the Sea (2009) 94% EDIT “Exotic, eye-opening 3D underwater journey to an octopus' garden in the shade.” – Film Journal International Feb 12, 2009 Full Review Pray the Devil Back to Hell (2008) 100% EDIT “The special effectiveness of women is the theme of director Gini Reticker's film, but there is a remarkable lack of moralizing and grandstanding here.” – Film Journal International Nov 7, 2008 Full Review A Thousand Years of Good Prayers (2007) 79% EDIT “A Chinese father visiting his Americanized daughter in Washington finds communication difficult, but the film offers rewards for the patient.” – Film Journal International Oct 14, 2008 Full Review Disaster Movie (2008) 1% EDIT “The "jokes" are limp and pathetic or stillborn, timing is ignored, performances are a not-so-giddy mug-fest. Audiences are left wondering when the freshman cast is going to learn the rudiments of performing.” – Film Journal International Oct 13, 2008 Full Review Fraude: México 2006 (2007) 80% B- EDIT “This heartfelt but one-sided look at the narrowly contested 2006 Mexican presidential election is technically sloppy but eerily reminiscent of the 2004 American presidential election.” – Film Journal International Oct 13, 2008 Full Review Miracle at St. Anna (2008) 33% EDIT “Brilliant homage to the Buffalo Soldiers during World War II may be Spike Lee's most powerful film.” – Film Journal International Oct 8, 2008 Full Review Z Odzysku (Retrieval) (2006) 100% EDIT “What gives Retrieval its unique drive and power is the exceedingly accomplished cast.” – Film Journal International Aug 8, 2008 Full Review Stealing America: Vote by Vote (2006) 54% EDIT “Stealing America: Vote by Vote does for American democracy what An Inconvenient Truth did for global warming.” – Film Journal International Aug 1, 2008 Full Review Quid Pro Quo (2008) 60% EDIT “Brooks has no idea how to pace his irritatingly giddy script, and the film feels overlong at 82 minutes.” – Film Journal International Jun 13, 2008 Full Review Beyond the Call (2006) 55% EDIT “A frustrating and frequently monotonous account, a public-relations presentation that only occasionally reveals the hits (or misses) of their missions.” – Film Journal International Apr 15, 2008 Full Review Liberty Kid (2007) 88% EDIT “For all its good intentions, Liberty Kid ultimately disappoints.” – Film Journal International Jan 25, 2008 Full Review Quantum Hoops (2007) 81% EDIT “An unpretentious but goodhearted tale of exceptional intellectuals surviving a state of perpetual frustration.” – Film Journal International Nov 5, 2007 Full Review Things We Lost in the Fire (2007) 65% EDIT “Bier is skilled at exploring the inner lives of her characters, but the editing by Pernille Bech Christensen and Bruce Cannon is more precious than revealing.” – Film Journal International Oct 18, 2007 Full Review Gone Baby Gone (2007) 94% EDIT “A thinking man's crime film, whose deeply etched characters and brilliant plotting have a near-Shakespearean power.” – Film Journal International Oct 18, 2007 Full Review Reservation Road (2007) 36% EDIT “All performances are first-rate, particularly those of Ruffalo and Phoenix.” – Film Journal International Oct 18, 2007 Full Review The Final Season (2007) 26% EDIT “Has nostalgic charms and heartfelt victories.” – Film Journal International Oct 12, 2007 Full Review Trade (2007) 33% EDIT “In addition to one-dimensional characters, the plot is unconvincing, with contrivance heaped upon contrivance.” – Film Journal International Sep 28, 2007 Full Review Deep Water (2006) 96% EDIT “In a sense, the subject of this film contributed a good deal of material to his cinematic biography, material that is gut-wrenchingly intimate and revelatory.” – Film Journal International Aug 24, 2007 Full Review Egoïste: Lotti Latrous (2007) EDIT “[Anspichler's] reliance on mostly interior scenes, dark and haunting, projects a mood of constant horrors suffered in secret by the innocent.” – Film Journal International Jun 4, 2007 Full Review The Salon (2005) 13% EDIT “Talks its way to a tedious, predictable conclusion that offers more yawns than laughs.” – Film Journal International May 14, 2007 Full Review Severance (2006) 66% EDIT “If anyone involved in this sloppy, inexplicable slasher flick had a notion of what they were doing or why, they've kept it to themselves.” – Film Journal International Apr 20, 2007 Full Review
