Glen Campbell... I'll Be Me (2014) 100% EDIT “The film is as much a love story as it is a farewell.” – Paste Magazine Nov 18, 2014 Full Review Ratatouille (2007) 96% EDIT “As in his previous films, Bird offers up a story with substance.” – Paste Magazine Aug 24, 2014 Full Review Point and Shoot (2014) 72% EDIT “A film that would seriously challenge anything Hollywood could come up with.” – Paste Magazine Jun 23, 2014 Full Review Source Code (2011) 92% 8.3/10 EDIT “Source Code takes off with some intense performances and an inventive story that pulls you in and makes you work for the payoff.” – Paste Magazine Mar 23, 2014 Full Review Knocked Up (2007) 90% EDIT “With sparkling performances from Rogen and Heigl, Apatow once again shows his sharp eye for talent and continuing knack for hits.” – Paste Magazine Aug 3, 2013 Full Review Bernie (2011) 88% 8/10 EDIT “A murder story, in a surprisingly simple but cleverly subtle package.” – Paste Magazine May 3, 2012 Full Review The Help (2011) 75% 7.3/10 EDIT “The film manages to retain a tension that's often rewarded with a humorous release. It may sometimes be a little too clean around the edges, but don't be fooled by the light.” – Paste Magazine Aug 11, 2011 Full Review Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Travels of A Tribe Called Quest (2011) 90% EDIT “It tells a real story that is both complex and coherent, putting ATCQ's impact on the level of what Dylan and The Beatles provided in their respective moments in musical history. And the argument is well made.” – Paste Magazine Jul 30, 2011 Full Review Page One: Inside The New York Times (2011) 78% 8.1/10 EDIT “Rossi gives us an opportunistic fly's point-of-view from those journalistic walls of "all the news that's fit to print."” – Paste Magazine Jul 16, 2011 Full Review Echotone (2010) 71% 8/10 EDIT “With striking imagery of Austin's upward rising skyline, the film follows some of the city's talented but struggling music makers.” – Paste Magazine May 21, 2011 Full Review The Adjustment Bureau (2011) 71% 6.1/10 EDIT “The Adjustment Bureau's corporate hierarchy of a surprisingly incompetent bureaucracy endowed with mystical powers that its agents use to keep the world on track -- right here under our noses -- is a suspension of disbelief that eventually collapses.” – Paste Magazine Mar 5, 2011 Full Review Cedar Rapids (2011) 86% 8.1/10 EDIT “Thanks to a surprisingly touching, while also hilarious performance by Helms and a savvy script from newcomer Phil Johnston, Cedar Rapids is a refreshing change from the norm.” – Paste Magazine Feb 26, 2011 Full Review Another Year (2010) 93% 8.6/10 EDIT “Another Year is what comedian Eddie Izzard calls "a-room-with-a-view-and-a-staircase-and-a-pond type of movie." And it's wonderful.” – Paste Magazine Jan 29, 2011 Full Review It's Kind of a Funny Story (2010) 58% 7.1/10 EDIT “Call it "Cuckoo Light" with a PG 13-appropriate amount of angst and just enough laughs and creativity to keep your attention.” – Paste Magazine Oct 9, 2010 Full Review The Social Network (2010) 96% EDIT “Never before have coding and algorithms been so titillating.” – Paste Magazine Oct 2, 2010 Full Review A Mighty Heart (2007) 79% EDIT “No preaching and no proselytizing. Just a horrible happening in a continually complicated world.” – Paste Magazine Sep 30, 2010 Full Review Died Young Stayed Pretty (2008) 63% EDIT “What a cool, unexpected kick this film was.” – Paste Magazine Nov 30, 2009 Full Review Frost/Nixon (2008) 93% 82/100 EDIT “Frost/Nixon proves that though history can be inspiring, in film it can be an inconvenience, one readily repaired with the phrase "based on a true story."” – Paste Magazine Dec 5, 2008 Full Review Four Christmases (2008) 25% 30/100 EDIT “Proving that quantity does not equal quality, director Seth Gordon (The King of Kong) presents Four Christmases, a weak, soulless holiday film in spite of its inclusion of five previous Oscar winners.” – Paste Magazine Dec 1, 2008 Full Review Zack and Miri Make a Porno (2008) 65% EDIT “Some great one-liners and another comic crescendo from Rogen saves Zack and Miri Make a Porno from mere mediocrity.” – Paste Magazine Oct 31, 2008 Full Review Let the Right One In (2008) 98% EDIT “A gorgeous vampire love story from Sweden...seriously” – Paste Magazine Oct 27, 2008 Full Review Pride and Glory (2008) 35% EDIT “The cops in Pride and Glory are real, and except for the violent gunplay and occasional drug use (requisites for every stereotypical New York cop flick), they live regular, complicated lives just like everyone else. And it's a pleasure to see that other s” – Paste Magazine Oct 27, 2008 Full Review The Duchess (2008) 62% EDIT “"In the end it may not be much more than a glorified, period-piece soap opera,...but with riveting performances like these, who cares?"” – Paste Magazine Oct 14, 2008 Full Review Elegy (2008) 74% EDIT “A seemingly forced ending, keep Elegy from being more than a character vehicle for one of our greatest actors and an opportunity for some creative dialogue on the pitfalls of romance.” – Paste Magazine Oct 13, 2008 Full Review Eagle Eye (2008) 27% EDIT “Even though the political, big-brother-is-watching, conspiratorial aspect of the film tries much too hard, the fast and furious pace of Eagle Eye makes for an entertaining time.” – Paste Magazine Oct 13, 2008 Full Review
