The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou (2004) 57% 2/5 EDIT “All the stylized performances in stylized sets work to kill the film's emotional content. It's not that we don't like the characters; it's that Anderson won't let us get involved with them, a fatal flaw in something this strenuously whimsical.” – NOW Toronto Apr 1, 2019 Full Review Casino Royale (2006) 94% 4/5 EDIT “The screenwriters have brought Bond back toward the book.” – NOW Toronto Nov 2, 2015 Full Review The Simpsons Movie (2007) 87% 3/5 EDIT “The execution is reasonably funny in the hit-and-miss manner of latter-day episodes, but translating The Simpsons to the big screen is a pointless exercise.” – NOW Toronto Aug 2, 2015 Full Review The Bourne Ultimatum (2007) 92% 4/5 EDIT “Director Paul Greengrass returns to guide the cast as they run furiously around the streets of London, Madrid, Tangiers and New York, and the genre material benefits greatly from his paranoid documentary style.” – NOW Toronto Jun 23, 2015 Full Review Chicago (2002) 87% 3/5 EDIT “Chicago is entertaining in spots but could have been great.” – NOW Toronto Feb 25, 2015 Full Review No Country for Old Men (2007) 93% 5/5 EDIT “Seventy minutes into the film, there's a rude burst of mariachi music as the hero awakes... That wouldn't be worth noting, except that we suddenly realize that for the first tense, suspense-filled hour of the film there has been no music at all.” – NOW Toronto Feb 22, 2015 Full Review
