Bridgend (2016) |
Without any sense of time or place to anchor the story and give it meaning, it becomes little more than an endless parade of misery. - All Movie Guide

Crimson Peak (2015) |
Watching Crimson Peak, it's tempting to wonder if Guillermo del Toro should continue on as a filmmaker or retire to become a designer of theme-park attractions. - All Movie Guide

Ashby (2015) |
...any glimmers of a raw, electrifying performance from Rourke - an actor nearly incapable of being boring - are buried underneath a metric ton of barely developed story lines. - All Movie Guide

Orion: The Man Who Would Be King (2015) |
Orion: The Man Who Would Be King might be a well-made documentary or just one that got ahold of an astonishing true story, but either way, it's fascinating from beginning to end. - TV Guide

Dirty Weekend (2015) |
...at this point, Neil LaBute seems to have the same level of insight into sex and relationships as Sin City creator Frank Miller does into violence and criminality. - All Movie Guide

Snowden (2016) |
Snowden might be a gripping thriller (with this subject matter, how could it not?), yet it feels like a lot of the nuance has been ironed out of it in order to fit into a conventional, 134-minute narrative. - All Movie Guide

Holy Motors (2012) |
While a single viewing (or even three) of Holy Motors isn't enough to begin to plumb the depths of its mysteries, it is enough to confirm that this weird, dazzling, utterly unique movie is one of the highlights of 21st century cinema thus far. - TV Guide
