"Gela Babluani creates tension with a stripped-down style and an unflinching camera and drives the film with a crisp pace that feels both out-of-control and achingly protracted."

Adam's Apples (2007)

"Jensen doesn't pretend it's cute and/or harmless -- there's a fascinating ambiguity to the happy fantasy laid over the misery and failure."

Allegro (2005)

"Catching Up with Christoffer Boe"

American Teen (2008)

"The portraits of these kids often feel honest, sometimes intrusive, and occasionally they come off a little camera-conscious, which may simply be the nature of the beast."

Army of Shadows (1969)

"If anything, the vision is more fatalistic than any of Melville's crime classics."

"Blind Masseur Swordfighter Gambling Genius: a talk with Takeshi Kitano"

Bright Leaves (2004)

"Ross McElwee's "Replication of Reality""

The Call of Cthulhu (2005)

"... more than simply a love letter to the stylized artificiality of silent expressionist horror... the most faithful screen translation of the author's work to date."

Coffee and Cigarettes (2004)

"Between the wry trademark Jarmusch deadpan humor (and there is quite a bit of it) and the great cast, this one is worth a look, particularly for those already in the Jarmusch camp."

Days of Glory (1944)

"A terrifically gripping WWII drama that manages to balance introspection with bursts of battlefield action."

Encounters At the End of the World (2007)

"...May not have the shock and drive of Grizzly Man, but it's a poignant and even haunting work nonetheless"

Foster Child (2007)

"The poverty and desperation is palpable, but where Slingshot showed the constant hustling and thieving in a male-dominated culture, Foster Child is anchored by women..."

Good Night. And, Good Luck (2005)

"David Strathairn: "Film is Our Literature""

Hansel & Gretel (2007)

"The story gets a bit convoluted as it rolls on, rushing through a few too many plot points and explanations, but slowly builds the layers of dread."

I Am Legend (2007)

"I Am Legend is three film genres for the price of one: Science Fiction, Action, and Horror, and while it's no classic in any one arena it remains edgy fun."

I'm Not There (2007)

"Todd Haynes and a Whole Slew of Dylans"

In The Electric Mist (2008)

"Tavernier captures the moody, misty Louisiana atmosphere and has a low-key, slow pace that fits the energy of the sticky South."

Jerichow (2009)

"Jerichow is not the masterfully complex work that Yella* was, but it's very tightly constructed and made, showing in some ways Peltzold's maturity as a filmmaker."

Killer of Sheep (1977)

"The fantastic thing about this beautiful film is how little it tries to make a statement about anything; it is, simply, life."

Last Days (2005)

"Gus Van Sant: "A cinema that might have existed""

Lord of War (2005)

"Andrew Niccol Finds a World of "Macabre Absurdity""

Max Havelaar (1976)

"Max Havelaar works because it's not about Max's heroism -- it's about how his idealism is shattered and the hypocrisy of his entire service is laid bare."
