Noah (2014)
75%
2/5
EDIT
“Despite Noah's vivid surface appeal, it ultimately fails to recreate the tale's original sense of thematic unity, and thus becomes acutely aware of its own deprived meaning.” –

Life After Beth (2014)

Welcome to New York (2014)
77%
3/5
EDIT
“Controlling an enigmatic and potent first half, Welcome to New York unfortunately slows in its second, often getting lost in its own rambling justifications.” –

Set Fire to the Stars (2014)
57%
4/5
EDIT
“Summoning performances that saturate the screen, and dialogue that does just as much, Set Fire to the Stars proves to be as ambiguously affecting as its tortured source.” –

We'll Never Have Paris (2014)
33%
3/5
EDIT
“Simon Helberg's cringe-inducing (non)romantic comedy crudely force-feeds its characters on time-honoured flaws, only to watch on hopefully as the audience eventually gives in to its absurdity.” –

Finsterworld (2013)
4/5
EDIT
“Taking inimical influence from Americana's cultural excess, Finsterworld mournfully revises Germany's deficient post-war heritage.” –

The Young and Prodigious T.S. Spivet (2013)
78%
3/5
EDIT
“While colourfully idyllic in almost every respect, The Young and Prodigious T.S. Spivet's vision finds itself sadly lacking in overall depth and symbolic relevance.” –

They Came Together (2014)
70%
4/5
EDIT
“While not every joke lands, They Came Together's comically decadent nature provides more than enough overall.” –

Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter (2014)
88%
5/5
EDIT

Hits (2014)
36%
3/5
EDIT
“Considerably well-written throughout, Hits' only fault lies in its lamentable withholding of some of the more substantial elements of its tongue-in-cheek narrative statement.” –

The Voices (2014)
74%
4/5
EDIT
“Somewhat resembling Pushing Daisies if starring Norman Bates, The Voices is a strangely macabre, entertaining spate of lurid whimsy.” –

Memphis (2013)
74%
4/5
EDIT
“Tim Sutton's experimental arrangement of the "one-hit-wonder" thematically explores the guilt, grief and sadness of wasted talent; the melancholic descent to normalcy.” –
