Spider-Man (2002) 90% 3/5 EDIT “Spider-Man may not be revolutionary filmmaking, but when sculpted and spandexed Tobey Maguire swings from skyscraper to skyscraper shooting ropey webs from his wrists, it's pretty damn cool.” – National Post Sep 24, 2025 Full Review Requiem for a Dream (2000) 80% 3/4 EDIT “Requiem for a Dream is often hard to watch - the visceral gore...and visual repetition work almost too well...” – National Post Aug 22, 2025 Full Review American Psycho (2000) 68% 3/4 EDIT “In satirizing a goofy, greedy era, director Mary Harron beats the controversial novel at its own game.” – National Post Apr 4, 2025 Full Review Scream 3 (2000) 45% EDIT “So, while it's squirmy enough at parts, and thankfully less chockablock with bodies than 2, there's little in Scream 3 that we couldn't see coming, and predictability is the only truly fatal error in a horror movie.” – National Post Feb 20, 2025 Full Review Almost Famous (2000) 91% 3/4 EDIT “Almost Famous has both great music and great banter in spades; it's Crowe's most ambitious and best film yet, displaying a more assured, aggressive touch.” – National Post Mar 26, 2024 Full Review Bill Cunningham New York (2010) 99% 4/5 EDIT “” – eye WEEKLY Apr 22, 2011 Full Review Hanna (2011) 71% 4/5 EDIT “A pulsating, whip-smart action film.” – eye WEEKLY Apr 6, 2011 Full Review The Agony and the Ecstasy of Phil Spector (2009) 79% 3/5 EDIT “” – eye WEEKLY Jan 28, 2011 Full Review Another Year (2010) 93% 4/5 EDIT “” – eye WEEKLY Jan 14, 2011 Full Review Breaking and Entering (2006) 34% EDIT “Minghella's gift/handicap is that his films always feel like films - too clever, too clean, too chiseled to have much to do with the real world.” – CBC News Nov 4, 2006 Full Review Away From Her (2006) 94% EDIT “A hushed, handsome adaptation...” – CBC News Nov 4, 2006 Full Review The Wind That Shakes the Barley (2006) 90% EDIT “It's a resonant and topical note that Loach surely intends to strike, and does.” – CBC News Nov 4, 2006 Full Review Something's Gotta Give (2003) 72% 2.5/4 EDIT “A movie that lets an ageing actress dominate the screen, and what a pleasure it is to watch a star reborn, at any age.” – National Post Dec 12, 2003 Full Review One From the Heart (1982) 50% 2.5/4 EDIT “A musical without singing and too little dancing.” – National Post Dec 5, 2003 Full Review The Last Samurai (2003) 65% 3/4 EDIT “An action movie that's smarter than it has any right to be, and often glorious to behold.” – National Post Dec 5, 2003 Full Review Shattered Glass (2003) 92% 2.5/4 EDIT “Shattered Glass isn't the final word on the decay of journalistic ethics ... but it's a solid office movie that hints at a different set of problems currently eating away at the profession.” – National Post Nov 28, 2003 Full Review Gothika (2003) 15% 2/4 EDIT “I'm tired of horror movies that demand the audience put aside its urban skepticism and just 'believe' because the writers can't find any way out of a messy script.” – National Post Nov 21, 2003 Full Review Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World (2003) 85% 3/4 EDIT “In a movie that is, at heart, as conventional as any other in its rickety genre, we get an emotional ride to match the effects.” – National Post Nov 14, 2003 Full Review The Matrix Revolutions (2003) 33% 2.5/4 EDIT “Even the Wachowski brothers don't seem to know how to get out of this six-hour labyrinth they've constructed.” – National Post Nov 8, 2003 Full Review Love Actually (2003) 65% 2.5/4 EDIT “For a fairy tale, Love Actually is highly entertaining.” – National Post Nov 7, 2003 Full Review Elephant (2003) 74% 3.5/4 EDIT “Van Sant could never sit in judgment of his subjects; instead, he gives life to them, and in doing so, their deaths become more tragic, more significant, than any pundit has been able to explain.” – National Post Nov 7, 2003 Full Review The Human Stain (2003) 41% 2.5/4 EDIT “It is a remote movie, and notably humourless, considering Roth's involvement.” – National Post Oct 31, 2003 Full Review Sylvia (2003) 37% 3/4 EDIT “Jeffs has created such an emotionally fraught texture for her protagonist to float in, that somehow, in spite of itself, Sylvia comes alive -- Lady Lazarus, risen again.” – National Post Oct 24, 2003 Full Review Radio (2003) 34% 1.5/4 EDIT “The film doesn't trust the audience to get to the point of caring without a roadmap of platitude-laden speeches and shots of eyes brimming with tears.” – National Post Oct 24, 2003 Full Review Veronica Guerin (2003) 53% 2/4 EDIT “... the film's great offence: phoniness.” – National Post Oct 17, 2003 Full Review
