This Week at The Bloor: 9/26/14

Four powerhouse documentaries play at The Bloor this week (including two of the year's best) alongside a plethora of special events.

The Equalizer Review

The Equalizer is a depressingly dull action thriller told in the most wrongheaded way possible.

The Boxtrolls Review

While it isn't the best film from LAIKA, The Boxtrolls still excellently showcases the animation studio's love for creativity.

20,000 Days on Earth Review

The hard to peg down 20,000 Days on Earth deftly blends artifice and documentary truth in its look at musician Nick Cave.

Believe Me Review

Believe Me is a faith based comedy that succeeds primarily because of all the confidence it has in itself.

Pride Review

Pride is a mash of odd couples and triumphs over oppression that satisfies, but predictable archetypes and glossed-over challenges are a drawback.

The Skeleton Twins Review

Bill Hader and Kristen Wiig give great performances in the otherwise somewhat standard American indie film The Skeleton Twins.

Frontera Review

Frontera is a well acted and constructed overlapping tale of lives coming together in the world of illegal Mexican/American immigration.

The Maze Runner Review

The Maze Runner is the worst, most cynical, and most morally suspect young adult adaptation ever created.

Metro Manila Review

Metro Manila is made with good intentions and craft, but little idea what to do with them.

Honeymoon Review

If it had a better final third, Honeymoon would be a great horror film and relationship drama in one package.
