Home (2005) 38% EDIT “It's all terribly self-referential.” – Village Voice Sep 19, 2006 Full Review The Mostly Unfabulous Social Life of Ethan Green (2005) 30% EDIT “[A] most unfabulous, unfunny, and unwatchable embarrassment.” – Village Voice Jun 13, 2006 Full Review Going Under (2006) 17% EDIT “At times, inchoate ideas (emotional wounds hurt deeper than physical pain?) threaten to congeal into an actual theme, but that turns out to be, like the rest of the film, a drawn-out tease.” – Village Voice Jun 13, 2006 Full Review El perro (2004) 83% EDIT “How do you say 'shaggy-dog story' in Spanish?” – Village Voice Jun 6, 2006 Full Review Stagedoor (2005) 63% EDIT “Shiva has a sensitive eye for rarefied outcasts.” – Village Voice May 30, 2006 Full Review The Lady in Question Is Charles Busch (2005) 79% EDIT “The filmmakers go heavy on the hagiography and light on the revelation.” – Village Voice Mar 21, 2006 Full Review Hate Crime (2005) 6% EDIT “When the plot gets lost in irrational revenge fantasies, you'll wish you had stayed home watching reruns.” – Village Voice Mar 14, 2006 Full Review Take My Eyes (2003) 91% EDIT “For once, it makes sense that the battered wife always returns to the abusive spouse, even if we don't believe his promises ('I've changed') any more than hers ('I'm never going back').” – Village Voice Mar 14, 2006 Full Review Cowboy del Amor (2005) 70% EDIT “A 60-year-old eccentric with a knack for self-promotion, Thompson makes an engaging documentary subject.” – Village Voice Feb 7, 2006 Full Review Mrs. Henderson Presents (2005) 68% EDIT “This is Dame Judi's show. However extraordinary an actor she may be, she cannot conceal the obvious fact that she's having the time of her life here. Isn't that delicious?” – Village Voice Dec 6, 2005 Full Review Rent (2005) 46% EDIT “Rent is about as timely now as Gigi.” – Village Voice Nov 23, 2005 Full Review Hellbent (2004) 48% EDIT “The scariest thing about Hellbent is that somebody thought making this humorless gaysploitation slasher flick would be a good idea.” – Village Voice Sep 13, 2005 Full Review Finding ElĂ©azar: Portrait of a Tenor and a Role (2005) 25% EDIT “Only true opera diehards will appreciate the backstage psychodrama, a catalog aria of the singer's multiple neuroses.” – Village Voice Sep 13, 2005 Full Review Ferpect Crime (2004) 85% EDIT “Spanish director de la Iglesia continues his streak of caustic social satires framed as send-ups of Hollywood genre clichs.” – Village Voice Aug 16, 2005 Full Review The Man Who Copied (2003) 68% EDIT “About as engaging as a paper jam.” – Village Voice Apr 19, 2005 Full Review The Phantom of the Opera (2004) 32% EDIT “Sure, all the ingredients of camp are there (oh, the hubris!), but this isn't a so-bad-it's-good classic. It's worse.” – Village Voice Dec 21, 2004 Full Review Go Further (2003) 57% EDIT “Go Further meanders -- narratively as well as geographically -- all over the map.” – Village Voice Nov 16, 2004 Full Review After the Sunset (2004) 18% EDIT “To pass the time between the product placements, director Brett Ratner tries to squeeze chuckles out of gay-panic set pieces, the quaint antics of colorful natives, and Woody Harrelson's surreal miscasting as the FBI agent.” – Village Voice Nov 9, 2004 Full Review Bear Cub (2004) 74% EDIT “Bear Cub is much smarter than the average comedy.” – Village Voice Nov 2, 2004 Full Review Brother to Brother (2004) 76% EDIT “Not surprising for a film that uses a term paper as a framing device, Brother to Brother feels too much like a school project.” – Village Voice Nov 2, 2004 Full Review 800 Bullets (2002) 45% EDIT “lex de la Iglesia's charming comedy celebrates the resilient power of dreams, memories, and the movies.” – Village Voice Oct 26, 2004 Full Review Happy Hour (2003) 35% EDIT “Strain credulity. Shake until sudsy. Garnish with a maraschino cherry or Eric Stoltz. Serve chilled, straight up.” – Village Voice Oct 19, 2004 Full Review Testosterone (2003) 6% EDIT “A more accurate title would be Melatonin.” – Village Voice Sep 7, 2004 Full Review Rockets Redglare! (2004) 33% EDIT “There's a human tragedy here waiting to be told; what we get, however, is a sordid, grotesque freak show.” – Village Voice Sep 1, 2004 Full Review A Home at the End of the World (2004) 50% EDIT “In the book, the strong-but-silent Bobby's interior monologues gave him a semblance of an inner life, but Cunningham's Cliff's Notes adaptation shrinks the character to a monosyllabic man-child with a puppy-dog stare.” – Village Voice Jul 20, 2004 Full Review
