Arbitrage
“Interesting enough to hold one’s attention, but there’s nothing truly memorable or noteworthy.”
For a Good Time, Call…
“Shaky first act…but when the girls’ phone sex business takes off, so does the movie.”
Wild Horse, Wild Ride
“As a 106-minute feature doc, it spreads the narrative too thin and becomes repetitious.”
The Words
“First-time writers/directors immediately steer the film off the road and into a narrative ditch.”
Sleepwalk with Me
“The better storylines are cancelled out by the less successful sleepwalking scenes.”
Celeste and Jesse Forever
“Script takes some unique angles and allows the nerdy chemistry between its leads to play out naturally.”
Premium Rush
“Rides hard, but without much direction. The whole thing plays out like a caffeinated cartoon.”
Killer Joe
“The film’s venom is extremely palpable, which makes it all the more disturbing to watch.”
The Imposter
“Unsettling…one gut-wrenching, suspenseful, and often bizarre crime docudrama.”
The Campaign
“Pitting two comedic heavyweights against one another pays off in predictably humorous fashion.”
The Bourne Legacy
“Gone is the kinetic, handheld camera feel of the series, and with it most of the excitement.”
Ruby Sparks
“A clever little idea that never materializes into anything as interesting as its initial concept.”
