Willow Creek (2013) 81% EDIT “Bobcat Goldthwait's Willow Creek is the first film in quite some time to give me those foundation shaking, temperature-changing scares.” – Battleship Pretension Mar 4, 2021 Full Review Breastmilk (2014) 80% EDIT “Breastmilk will make you raise a fist in feminist solidarity, despite its rigidity and general confusion.” – Battleship Pretension Mar 4, 2021 Full Review The Trials of Muhammad Ali (2013) 88% EDIT “Muhammad Ali was and still is charismatic. The Trials of Muhammad Ali is not.” – Battleship Pretension Feb 25, 2021 Full Review Low & Clear (2012) EDIT “Filmmakers Khalil Hudson and Tyler Hughen are humanists; J.T. and Xenie are fisherman. Low & Clear is a concise, emotive study on each.” – Battleship Pretension Feb 25, 2021 Full Review Captain Phillips (2013) 93% EDIT “The film is a technical chef-d'oeuvre. It's a study on the misanthropy of international piracy. It's a film that's far more evocative and thought-provoking than its name suggests.” – Battleship Pretension Feb 16, 2021 Full Review Do I Sound Gay? (2014) 82% EDIT “Do I Sound Gay? is a film that asks universal questions as a means to explore Thorpe's very personal struggle.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 14, 2021 Full Review Haywire (2011) 80% EDIT “Haywire is one of the best action films of the decade.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review Eyes Wide Shut (1999) 76% EDIT “Eyes Wide Shut feels like the culmination of a career spent telling stories of every stripe; it's at once horrifying, sexy and thrilling and it explores a world that is unlike anything that could exist outside the mind of Stanley Kubrick.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review Jack's Back (1988) 71% EDIT “Despite all of its shortcomings, James Spader makes Jack's Back watchable. He's got a charm and dedication that elevates the film's shortcomings.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review Kill Your Friends (2015) 24% EDIT “Kill Your Friends has its moments, but in the end what's the point? It's all Blur and Oasis signifying nothing.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review Car Wash (1976) 86% EDIT “Car Wash is an unconventional comedy that stumbles upon relevancy more often than not.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review Patterns (1956) 89% EDIT “Patterns succeeds most as a showcase for its actors.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review No Retreat No Surrender (1986) 80% EDIT “No Retreat, No Surrender is an argument for JCVD as a hard-to-define, compelling action commodity.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review Tales from the Crypt (1972) 90% EDIT “It's easily forgotten, but just as easily recalled for being a lot of fun. Which seems to fall perfectly in line with Tales From the Crypt's pop-culture legacy.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review Little Annie Rooney (1925) 60% EDIT “Uneven second half notwithstanding, Little Annie Rooney is an exciting comedy, thankfully saved from the carnage of time.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review San Andreas (2015) 48% EDIT “There's not a lot to hold onto in San Andreas. It ticks the boxes of a disaster film, but rarely, if ever, asks the audience to do anything other than ooh and ahh at its effects.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review Love Hunter (2013) 86% EDIT “Even at only 73 minutes, Love Hunter is indulgent. But, then, if a movie like this weren't, you'd probably ask for your money back.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review Peter and the Farm (2016) 100% EDIT “Peter and the Farm is immensely rewarding as a fascinating personification of all of the emotions that mental illness renders you incapable of personifying.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review Slumber (2017) 0% EDIT “For horror hounds, Slumber may scratch a familiar itch but it ultimately fails to distinguish itself and, like most dreams, quickly fades from memory.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review The Dawn Wall (2017) 100% EDIT “The Dawn Wall moves with incredible fluidity. Framing the film around Caldwell and Jorgensen's ascent, the film floats effortlessly between past and present...” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review The Magic Flute (1975) 92% EDIT “The Magic Flute is a fascinating look into Bergman's thoughts on the pretense of theater and film and the shared DNA between the two.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review Scars of Dracula (1970) 67% EDIT “A messy delight...” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review Warning Sign (1985) 20% EDIT “In the war against the capitalist curation of streaming services, Scream Factory continues to be a noble soldier, offering horror fans the opportunity to see forgotten oddities and small pictures that would otherwise go unnoticed.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review Ramen Shop (2018) 86% EDIT “Endearingly, the film shows food can unite two strangers from across the planet but can also transcend anger and resentment and make room for love and forgiveness.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review For the Birds (2018) 93% EDIT “For the Birds often has trouble finding the balance between human interest and exploitation.” – Battleship Pretension Jan 7, 2021 Full Review
