Moscow, Belgium (2008) 93% 3/5 EDIT “Involving domestic drama that lingers a little too long at the kitchen sink.” – Empire Magazine Jun 5, 2020 Full Review Destricted (2006) 18% 3/5 EDIT “The graphic content guarantees that this will attract sensationalist attention. But, beneath the provocation and pretention, there are some interesting ideas here -- even though they're not always subtly expressed.” – Empire Magazine Aug 16, 2017 Full Review Dough (2015) 53% 3/5 EDIT “The plot may turn on a hoary comic conceit, but its plea for tolerance in troubled times is as welcome as the familiar faces in the willing cast.” – Empire Magazine Jun 1, 2017 Full Review The Young Offenders (2016) 100% 4/5 EDIT “Raucously funny and winningly played, this is the best Irish comedy since Sing Street.” – Empire Magazine Jan 9, 2017 Full Review The Measure of a Man (2015) 92% 4/5 EDIT “Uncompromisingly authentic, impeccably played and quietly compelling.” – Empire Magazine Jun 5, 2016 Full Review Mavis! (2015) 97% 3/5 EDIT “Brimful of glorious sounds, this affectionate fan letter says as much about Pops Staples's artistic and political evolution as it does about his devoted daughter, one of the all-time greats.” – Empire Magazine Feb 18, 2016 Full Review Lost in Karastan (2014) 38% 3/5 EDIT “It's knowingly played and engagingly eccentric, but lacks edge.” – Empire Magazine Jan 18, 2016 Full Review Sherpa (2015) 98% 4/5 EDIT “This is a spectacular, intimate and politically provocative expos of the dangers, racial tensions and harsh economic realities on the world's highest mountain.” – Empire Magazine Dec 17, 2015 Full Review Unbranded (2015) 75% 3/5 EDIT “Has its moments of spectacle and danger, but offers too few genuine insights or rite-of-passage epiphanies.” – Empire Magazine Nov 22, 2015 Full Review Gemma Bovery (2014) 54% 3/5 EDIT “While the Norman vistas are glorious, the storytelling lacks wit and charm.” – Empire Magazine Aug 20, 2015 Full Review 5 Flights Up (2014) 47% 3/5 EDIT “Charmingly played by its well-cast, ever watchable leads.” – Empire Magazine Jul 23, 2015 Full Review Black Souls (2014) 89% 4/5 EDIT “The tone is pseudo-Sopranos at times, but the oppressive ambience is grippingly sustained.” – Empire Magazine Jun 7, 2015 Full Review I Used to Live Here (2014) 100% 3/5 EDIT “This troubling story is held together by Jordanne Jones's poignant performance.” – Empire Magazine Mar 30, 2015 Full Review Blind (2014) 92% 4/5 EDIT “Brilliantly blurs the lines between perception and voyeurism, the objective and the subjective.” – Empire Magazine Mar 26, 2015 Full Review The Man Who Saved the World (2014) 68% 2/5 EDIT “A gripping and unheralded story that doesn't quite get the telling it deserves.” – Empire Magazine Mar 26, 2015 Full Review A Second Chance (2014) 52% 2/5 EDIT “A decent cast gives it more credibility than it deserves.” – Empire Magazine Mar 19, 2015 Full Review Lou! (2014) 17% 2/5 EDIT “Quirky and kitsch but this tween flick doesn't quite hang together.” – Empire Magazine Mar 13, 2015 Full Review Electricity (2014) 80% 2/5 EDIT “Slick but a little superficial in its treatment of its character's challenges. But the actress does good work carrying the dramatic fireworks.” – Empire Magazine Dec 11, 2014 Full Review Bringing Tibet Home (2013) 67% 3/5 EDIT “A heartfelt and fascinating piece of documentary-as-art agit prop.” – Empire Magazine Dec 11, 2014 Full Review Mary Is Happy, Mary Is Happy (2013) 71% 3/5 EDIT “A wry and emotional journey through a teenager's life on social media.” – Empire Magazine Nov 20, 2014 Full Review The Case Against 8 (2014) 91% 3/5 EDIT “As passionate and wide-ranging as you'd hope, but disappointingly mistrusting of its audience's interest in the finer points of the case.” – Empire Magazine Nov 3, 2014 Full Review Still the Enemy Within (2014) 100% 4/5 EDIT “A tough, hard-hitting and honest telling by the people involved.” – Empire Magazine Oct 2, 2014 Full Review Manuscripts Don't Burn (2013) 93% 3/5 EDIT “A potent work for all sorts of reasons.” – Empire Magazine Sep 11, 2014 Full Review A Spell to Ward Off the Darkness (2013) 95% 3/5 EDIT “As a rumination on existence, this never gets as deep or as insightful as it wants to.” – Empire Magazine Sep 11, 2014 Full Review A Touch of Zen (1971) 97% 4/5 EDIT “All the lunacy and high-flown imagination you could hope for.” – Empire Magazine Aug 12, 2014 Full Review
