porn again? (The Look of Love review)
It’s a puzzlement. How did Michael Winterbottom make a film this tediously conservative?
reviews
what Tony Stark needs most is a hug (Iron Man 3 review)
“I am Iron Man.” When Tony repeats that line here, it’s newly thrilling, and far more intriguing than it previously was.
feel-goodest movie ever (The Sapphires review)
You’ve seen this story before, but never pulled off with so much joie de vivre.
Oblivion movie review: Jetsons parody or Ikea commercial?
Postcard-pretty, unusual for a science fiction flick, but shockingly derivative.
The Gatekeepers documentary review: secret police speak out
The Oscar-nominated documentary in which the six living former heads of Israel’s ultrasecretive domestic security agency talk about their antiterrorism work…
please can Derek Cianfrance not get sucked up by the Hollywood machine (The Place Beyond the Pines review)
My heart is so heavy after this film. So heavy with this film.
inoffensive Frankenkid; you’ve seen worse (The Odd Life of Timothy Green review)
The magic is as modest as can be, and its aim is a bit off…
you can’t stop the music… *ever* (A Late Quartet review)
All its faults are forgiven thanks to our sheer joy in getting to watch Christopher Walken, Catherine Keener, and Philip Seymour Hoffman rattle around one another…
Stephenie Meyer has found a whole new way for teen girls to be conflicted about sex (The Host review)
Did Neo come to see that the Agents had the right way of things? Did Luke eventually realize that the Empire was a stabilizing force in the galaxy? But poor Melanie is suffering from the ultimate case of Stockholm Syndrome.
Hollywood pathetically attempts to recapture the glory of the past (Evil Dead review)
Is it gory? Sure. This is one of the most disgusting movies I’ve ever seen, grading strictly on a scale of blood and guts and viscera. But terrifying? Hardly.
