Kill the Messenger movie review: all the news that’s fit to quash
A passionate and intense drama — fueled by a fierce Jeremy Renner — that furiously underscores the problem of lickspittle corporate “journalism.”
reviews
Unfinished Business movie review: business trip-up
Apparently made by snickering 12-year-olds who like naked boobies and have heard rumors about the phenomenon known as “the business trip.”
Chappie movie review: robot icks
A morally muddled mess that is convoluted in plot and appallingly simplistic in its themes. I am a sad geek today.
Ida movie review: alas poor Poland?
A beautiful film, and a mysterious one. I don’t quite know what to make of it, but I have been seduced by its evasive intrigue.
Continuum (aka I’ll Follow You Down) movie review: the time traveler’s family
Indie science fiction with a rare humanism, a scientific and emotional mystery with a solution Hollywood wouldn’t dare go anywhere near.
Beyond the Lights movie review: blitz the glitz
Smart and passionate, this is one of the ultimate Hollywood fantasies: an adult romance performed by gorgeous actors with palpable onscreen chemistry.
Project Almanac movie review: temporal d’oh!
There are things in which horny teenaged boys were not meant to meddle. Like we needed the warning.
Ejecta movie review: ech file
Quite possibly an alien torture device designed to turn our brains to mush. *sob*
Catch Me Daddy movie review: nowhere to run
A lurid meatgrinder of a movie in which the young-woman protagonist is reduced to a passive object of male rage, greed, and possessiveness.
A Dark Reflection movie rating: red light
Would-be conspiracy thriller undermines its own noble intent with its amateurism and dull, plodding earnestness.
