Edge of Seventeen (1998) 79% EDIT “It'll resonate with anyone who remembers the awkwardness and elation of their first sexual experiences, because it captures those experiences better and more honestly than practically any other film.” – AV Club May 28, 2020 Full Review The Finishing School (The House That Screamed) (The Boarding School) (La Residencia) (1971) EDIT “It's intimate and unsettling, just as it is in all the best horror films.” – AV Club Feb 27, 2019 Full Review The Goddess (1934) 100% EDIT “One of the most powerful silent films of all time.” – Sight & Sound Jan 29, 2014 Full Review A Single Shot (2013) 46% C- EDIT “It's largely just an opportunity for the actors to try on Ozark-y mannerisms, swig moonshine, and hock loogies. And like most exercises in authenticity, it couldn't be more inauthentic if it tried.” – AV Club Sep 19, 2013 Full Review Informant (2012) 89% C+ EDIT “Meltzer hasn't unearthed enough fresh material, and he hasn't dug deeply enough into Darby's near-sociopathic opportunism.” – AV Club Sep 12, 2013 Full Review Winnie (2011) 19% D+ EDIT “Winnie Mandela is maybe the closest a movie has come to a series of commemorative plates.” – AV Club Sep 5, 2013 Full Review American Made Movie (2013) 40% B EDIT “It's a strong subject, one that hasn't been fully explored in a theatrical doc, and writer Ryan C. Wilson and directors Nathaniel Thomas McGill and Vincent Vittorio do a solid if unexceptional job of tackling it.” – AV Club Aug 29, 2013 Full Review Scenic Route (2013) 65% D- EDIT “Is there a worse cinematic punishment than a two-hander featuring dull, unsympathetic twits bickering for an hour and a half?” – AV Club Aug 22, 2013 Full Review When Comedy Went to School (2013) 53% C- EDIT “It's the squarest of square love letters, and it plays like one of those bland, slick History Channel specials.” – AV Club Aug 1, 2013 Full Review Evidence (2013) 6% D- EDIT “There have been a lot of shoddy found-footage flicks over the past few years, but maybe none quite so shoddy as this.” – AV Club Jul 18, 2013 Full Review Terms and Conditions May Apply (2013) 84% B- EDIT “Terms And Conditions may not be a particularly well-made doc, but it provides a much-needed wake-up call.” – AV Club Jul 11, 2013 Full Review
