Damsels In Distress Review

For someone missing in action for over a decade, writer/director Whit Stillman fits into the current indie comedy landscape pretty comfortably with Damsels in Distress.

The Lucky One Review

Unapploagetically corny, but still a bit bland, the Nicholas Sparks adaptation The Lucky One will either delight fans of Zac Efron and Sparks or it will grate their nerves to no end.

Sound it Out Review

Arriving just in time for Record Store Day, the documentary Sound It Out will appeal most to the people who still love their local vinyl and CD emporiums.

Chimpanzee Review

Just in time for Earth Day, Disney Nature returns with a look at the closest primate relatives to humans.

My Way Review

The most expensive film in Korean history, My Way proves that great battle sequences can't overcompensate from a woefully drawn out running time and a lack of original ideas.

This Week in DVD: 4/17/12

This week, action and misery seem to be the themes as takes on Shame and Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol, while Noah Taylor looks at The Divide, and Phil Brown watches Contraband

Lockout Review

While it never quite lives up to its hype as being an exact clone Escape from New York in space, Lockout manages some moments of cheesy fun and some decent action sequences.

Keyhole Review

Guy Maddin's Keyhole starts as his most accessible film today with an updating of 30s gangster films before gently giving into the filmmaker's unique visual style. And there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Streetdance 2 Review

When exactly did dance movies become such a viable genre and who can we call to put a stop to it?

The Hunter Review

The Hunter makes great use out of a spectacular performance from Willem Dafoe, but despite a great start the film almost crumbles under the weight of a half baked conclusion.

The Moth Diaries Review

After a promising opening, American Psycho director Mary Harron squanders all of the promise shown in her latest teen horror The Moth Diaries before ending up as one of the worst films of the year thus far.
