In Secret movie review: do you promise not to tell?
If O. Henry and Edgar Allan Poe collaborated on a love story, it might look something like this juicy bit of ironic gothic romance.
reviews by genre
Touchy Feely rating: green light
Gentle dramedy about a massage therapist who suddenly can’t stand to touch anyone… and about how we all need more care and attention than we get.
Only Lovers Left Alive movie review: full-blooded
I want to crawl inside this movie and curl up in its lap and stay there forever. This movie is so languid and so uncoerced. I want to keep it a secret and let everyone know about it at the same time.
Godzilla movie review: sympathy for Gojira
Elegantly updates the King of All Monsters for the 21st century… but Hollywood’s tedious myopia means the movie as a whole isn’t quite so beautiful.
After Tiller rating: yellow light
This documentary portrait of abortion doctors in America looks at those who do important, compassionate work, but isn’t as engaging as it should be.
Devil’s Knot movie review: well-worn tracks
Atom Egoyan is all over the real-life case of American injustice surrounding the West Memphis Three. But sadly, I’m not sure why.
Frank movie review: the heart of artness
A bitter dramedy of creative desperation that has something sneakily marvelous to say about what it takes — and what it doesn’t — to be an artist.
Next Goal Wins movie review: nothing but net
I could not possibly care less about football, and I fell hopelessly in love with this movie, and with the can-do amateur team it introduces us to.
Sabotage movie review: DEAd end gang
Feels like a cheap action flick and plays like an unintentional call to end drugs prohibition and the idiotic war between cartels and law enforcement.
Walk of Shame movie review: Slut Shaming, The Motion Picture
If you don’t think it’s hilarious that a woman dressed for a night out would “naturally” be mistaken for a prostitute, there is nothing here for you.
