Reviews

Machete

“Entertaining mayhem and political satire…with the aesthetics of a hardcore vigilante film.”

The American

“A tame and tensionless art-house spy movie…with glacial pacing.”

Going the Distance

“Like most wannabe Apatowesque comedies it has neither the charm nor enough laughs.”

Wild Grass

“Might have been more effective if the carefree style wasn’t so meaningless at times.”

Takers

“Not engaging unless you’re entertained by big-budget pissing contests.”

The Switch

“Despite a lack of hearty laughs, this is the kind of dramedy where it feels just as good to smile.”

Get Low

“A modest Southern folktale about atonement, grief, and one’s own mortality.”

Lottery Ticket

“Backpedals into a second-rate comedy reminiscent of others produced by Ice Cube.”

Eat Pray Love

“Only scratches the surface of a story that deserves more than just spaghetti lunches.”

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World

“Substitutes a sensible script with scenes of hyper-unrealistic imagery void of real emotion.”

The Other Guys

“Countless misfires make for a subpar ride-a-long in the buddy-cop action sub-genre.”

Step Up 3D

“Great dance sequences, but without a sensible script, what’s the point?”
