Blaze
“Would make a wonderful double feature with Joel and Ethan Coen’s 2013 drama ‘Inside Llewyn Davis.'”
First Reformed
“One man’s spiritual and political resurrection from the darkest corners of his consciousness.”
The Magnificent Seven
“A pop-culture western. It’s been a while since a western was played as an action movie.”
Boyhood
“What director Linklater pulls off is nothing short of astonishing. One of the most ambitious films ever.”
The Purge
“Masks itself as a complex morality tale that can trigger debate, but director DeMonaco couldn’t care less.”
Sinister
“Once the threat is identified as a demon…the rest of the film becomes a giant shrug.”
Brooklyn’s Finest
“A violent, mind-numbing, and generic cop flick that has nothing new to say.”
Daybreakers
“Isn’t what fans of the genre should consider pushing vampirism narrative into new territory.”
