Fun Mom Dinner (2017) 35% EDIT “Psst. Have you heard? On big screens across the nation women are behaving badly, really badly.” – New York Times Aug 3, 2017 Full Review The Incredible Jessica James (2017) 88% EDIT “This is Ms. Williams's movie, and she owns it.” – New York Times Jul 28, 2017 Full Review Person to Person (2017) 55% EDIT “The soundtrack - an infectious blend of retro gospel, R&B and funk - often feels too breezy and soulful for this mundane affair, especially when it precedes scenes with pouty teenagers, even if they're world-weary sorts.” – New York Times Jul 27, 2017 Full Review Chasing Coral (2017) 100% EDIT “Apocalyptic sci-fi? This is real life, in the documentary "Chasing Coral."” – New York Times Jul 14, 2017 Full Review The Women's Balcony (2016) 96% EDIT “Emil Ben-Shimon's smart direction and Shlomit Nehama's lighthearted and topical script ensure the proceedings not only hit all the right notes, but also entertain while being respectful of religious traditions.” – New York Times May 25, 2017 Full Review Demain (2015) 93% EDIT “Its real triumph is its pervasive feeling of hope.” – New York Times Apr 20, 2017 Full Review Gifted (2017) 73% EDIT “What's in a child's best interest? It depends on who's answering the question. That's the crux of "Gifted," the director Marc Webb's return to small-scale features after tangling with spidey.” – New York Times Apr 6, 2017 Full Review Forgotten (2014) EDIT “While it would be a tall order to fully elucidate this complicated history in two hours, "Olvidados" is hamstrung by Mr. Bolado's lack of focused direction and a convoluted plot.” – New York Times Sep 17, 2015 Full Review We Are Your Friends (2015) 40% EDIT “If the filmmakers were aiming to mimic the flow of electronic dance music, they succeeded. The action slowly builds and breaks down, with dance beats kicking in periodically. Not much resonates here; it's all facile entertainment.” – New York Times Aug 27, 2015 Full Review Ungli (2014) 0% EDIT “While Mr. D'Silva's basic structure and pacing are fairly fluid, his movie suffers from Bollywood's typical kitchen-sink approach to filmmaking.” – New York Times Nov 30, 2014 Full Review Addicted (2014) 7% EDIT “The actors are uniformly handsome and mostly serviceable, though the same can't be said about the filmmaking or the writing.” – New York Times Oct 13, 2014 Full Review The Little Tin Man (2013) EDIT “At its best, the movie has a sort of sitcom feel, with swift pacing and delivery, and the strong ensemble cast has a natural rapport.” – New York Times Oct 2, 2014 Full Review Canopy (2013) 75% EDIT “While not much is said in the Australian director Aaron Wilson's small-scale first feature, "Canopy," the film conveys volumes about war and humanity.” – New York Times Aug 28, 2014 Full Review This Is Not a Ball (2014) EDIT “While the first third is promising ... the subsequent hour is scattershot.” – New York Times Jun 5, 2014 Full Review Tabloid Truth (2014) EDIT “While Kim Kwang-sik deftly renders the fight and chase sequences, the film's unrelenting pace and tangled plot trump its limited efforts to address the feelings of despair or the broader moral issues at its heart.” – New York Times Mar 14, 2014 Full Review Hasee Toh Phasee (2014) 80% EDIT “While the film starts out as a seemingly fresh take on the romantic comedy, it is saddled with numerous contrivances and the clichd trappings of the genre: big weddings, wayward souls and quick-to-judge elders.” – New York Times Feb 10, 2014 Full Review JFK: A President Betrayed (2013) EDIT “Fifty years later, this is one of many additions to the Kennedy catalog. Although it's more suited for the small screen, it is a worthy entry nonetheless.” – New York Times Nov 21, 2013 Full Review Sex, Love & Salsa (2015) EDIT “For a romantic comedy that doubles as a mockumentary, it can be downright creepy.” – New York Times Nov 13, 2013 Full Review L.A. Superheroes (2013) EDIT “At times endearing, humorous and insightful.” – New York Times Nov 7, 2013 Full Review The Prime Ministers: The Pioneers (2013) 43% 2.5/5 EDIT “A bit overstuffed with history and tales of perseverance, the film doesn't have room for balanced political analysis or even exposition at times.” – New York Times Oct 17, 2013 Full Review McConkey (2013) 100% 3.5/5 EDIT “It's not about why he was such a thrill-seeking risk-taker but about appreciating his success in living life on his own terms.” – New York Times Oct 10, 2013 Full Review A River Changes Course (2013) 91% 3.5/5 EDIT “Instead of delving into the politics of their plight, Ms. Mam delivers a universal story.” – New York Times Oct 3, 2013 Full Review Wedding Palace (2011) 33% 3/5 EDIT “While the story is a bit weak, the film does a good job of contrasting Korean-Americans who steadfastly adhere to the traditions of their homeland with South Koreans who have renounced old customs.” – New York Times Sep 26, 2013 Full Review We Came Home (2013) 3.5/5 EDIT “Tis intimate film, Ms. Delawari's first, is about ... her family's history (seen in home movies and photographs), the resilience of the Afghan people, and her own story of self-discovery as a musician.” – New York Times Sep 26, 2013 Full Review Generation Iron (2013) 81% 2.5/5 EDIT “For a documentary about extreme discipline, the filmmakers lack restraint: the movie, about 20 minutes too long, undercuts much of its own momentum.” – New York Times Sep 19, 2013 Full Review
