Cyber-Seniors Review
No, it's not a film about elderly cyborgs, but the documentary Cyber-Seniors is a disarmingly charming look at how you're never too old to learn something new and potentially terrifying.

Interview: Mark Critch
We sat down with Canadian actor Mark Critch to talk about returning to Newfoundland for his role in The Grand Seduction, the culture of the island, lead actor Brendan Gleeson's attention to detail, and we use his famed impression of talk show host George Stroumboulopoulos to talk about the difference between accents and impressions.
Cabin Fever: Patient Zero Review
Cabin Fever was a successful horror film that by all rights should have spawned an equally successful horror movie franchise. It never turned out that way. Three entries in, it definitely still isn't that way.
Interview: Pat Healy
We chat with beloved character actor and Cheap Thrills star Pat Healy about being a part of so many memorable filmgoing experiences, what appeals to him about characters who can never do the right thing, and why the uncomfortable shoot for Cheap Thrills made the film’s tension far more palpable.
Interview: Nadia Litz
We talk to the writer, director, and actress Nadia Litz about her $1,000 budgeted Hotel Congress (opening Friday at the TIFF Bell Lightbox), the precise construction of her film’s dialogue and themes, and the push and pull between manners and self-awareness.
Interview: Sam Dunn & Reginald Harkema
We sit down with heavy metal anthropologist Sam Dunn and filmmaker Reginald Harkema to talk about their work on the "doc opera" Super Duper Alice Cooper, which hits DVD tomorrow.

112 Weddings Review
The documentary 112 Weddings is misleading in a number of ways. It's nothing more than a vain waste of time.
The Love Punch Review
The Love Punch wants to be a pleasant caper comedy where old people get a second lease on life, but it's actually offensive to the intelligence of any audience member who watches it and to it's over qualified cast.
Fading Gigolo Review
Fading Gigolo is a baffling failure. A film that comes with a killer, easy to pull off hook, that seems to have no clue what it's doing and no characters whatsoever.
X-Men: Days of Future Past Review
Somewhere between a natural continuation of the story arc kicked off by the previous “proper” entry of a franchise and a complete and total retconning of the same lies X-Men: Days of Future Past. It’s a stronger film than its immediate and proper predecessor, but thanks to some time travelling and convenient plotting, it essentially undoes most of the plot elements that didn’t work the last time out.
Blended Review
Though it takes a painfully long 40 minutes to even get to its point and to have any fun, the unbeatable comedic teaming of Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore rescues Blended and makes it one of the comic actors more tolerable efforts in years.
The Birder Review
The Birder is a slight and quirky Canadian indie comedy that's not so much bad as it is immediately forgettable.
Fast Five: Best Bets from Inside Out 2014
With the 24th annual Inside Out Film Festival kicking off tonight, here are five films you won't want to miss at this year's showcase of the best in LGBT themed films.
Ape Review
There’s something uniquely unsettling about Joel Potrykus’ anti-comedy Ape. It’s almost as if a Daniel Clowes novel wasn’t so much adapted as it simply fought its way off the page.
