The Tempest (2010) 31% 3.5/5 EDIT “What Taymor, Mirren et al have given us is not exactly a Tempest for the ages. But in the balance struck between talent, traditional casting, technology and the tale at hand, it manages to stand firmly on its own two feet as a Tempest for today.” – Jam! Movies Dec 10, 2010 Full Review Reel Injun (2009) 88% 3.5/5 EDIT “For Diamond, Reel Injun is a highly personal odyssey, undertaken in an attempt to reconcile the realities of his native childhood with the natives he saw portrayed on screen.” – Jam! Movies Feb 19, 2010 Full Review The Memsahib (2006) 20% 2/5 EDIT “Visually beautiful but sleepy.” – Jam! Movies Jan 15, 2010 Full Review The Magic Flute (2006) 70% 3.5/5 EDIT “It dwells quite happily somewhere in the no-man's-land between "Perfect" and "Perfectly Enjoyable."” – Jam! Movies Mar 20, 2009 Full Review The History Boys (2006) 66% 4/5 EDIT “A delightful thought-provoker that will have you questioning what constitutes a good education and a good teacher.” – Jam! Movies Nov 24, 2006 Full Review U-Carmen Ekhayelitsha (2005) 95% 4.5/5 EDIT “[Dornford-May] and his cast take the familiar strains of one of the world's best-known works of opera and, by blending it with the sights and ambient sounds of South Africa, transform it into something that is both as old as pain and as new as hope.” – Jam! Movies Nov 4, 2006 Full Review Rent (2005) 46% 4.5/5 EDIT “Inspired by La Boheme, its emotions are still operatic, but the score, for the most part, is good old rock 'n' roll.” – Jam! Movies Nov 23, 2005 Full Review Must Love Dogs (2005) 37% 2.5/5 EDIT “Beware! Every time you're just about to settle back into mature romantic comedy mode as if it were a warm bath, things get silly. Really silly.” – Jam! Movies Jul 29, 2005 Full Review Inside Deep Throat (2005) 83% 3/5 EDIT “Still capable of generating controversy.” – Jam! Movies Feb 11, 2005 Full Review Broadway: The Golden Age (2004) 83% 3/5 EDIT “What makes Golden Age compelling cinema is the archival material that McKay has assembled to bind his loose and often casually unfocused interviews.” – Jam!
