80 Stage Fright (1950) - Feb 08, 2012
Mini-Review: The film succeeds despite its manipulative, third act plot twist. Stage Fright bares the Hitchcock stamp with its dry wit and clever cinematography, raising it above the average murder yarn.
65 The Rum Diary (2011) - Feb 07, 2012
Mini-Review: Probably the closest a film has come to being terrible while still being good. I don't know what I mean by that, but it's true.
75 Romeo and Juliet (1968) - Feb 05, 2012
80 Scanners (1981) - Jan 29, 2012
Mini-Review: The acting (or foley work) all around is pretty atrocious, but the effects are deliciously gory, and Howard Shore's score is bombastic and strange.
80 Public Enemies (2009) - Jan 24, 2012
Mini-Review: I can't praise Dante Spinotti's innovative cinematography enough, though most of Public Enemies is rote action territory. Depp does his Depp thing and Bale give a uncharacteristically uncharismatic performance. Only Cotillard and Stephen Graham shine.
90 Akai satsui (1964) - Jan 23, 2012
Mini-Review: Intentions of Murder is beautifully shot film about loneliness, possession, and the terror of freedom. Aside from a small child, no one is "likeable", and characters give into their own weaknesses at every turn. Reminiscent of Hitchcock.
90 Moneyball (2011) - Jan 22, 2012
Mini-Review: Wally Pfister proves that he can be not only a gifted cinematographer, but an inspired one.
65 The Help (2011) - Jan 22, 2012
Mini-Review: I didn't know that characters could be less than one dimensional. Also, way to shoehorn in that original song at the end, guys.
80 You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger (2010) - Jan 21, 2012
Mini-Review: Hopkins gives a surprisingly subtle performance in this slice of (serendipitous) life dramedy that respectfully explores alternative spirituality. Brolin has a great face for film.
70 The Men Who Tread on the Tiger's Tail (1945) - Jan 19, 2012
Mini-Review: Kenichi Enomoto is painfully obnoxious in the fool role, but The Men Who Tread on the Tiger's Tail shows great early promise from Kurosawa in terms of cinematography and editing.
