Joy (2015) 61% 7/10 EDIT “Charged with navigating a half-dozen equally fraught relationships, Lawrence is at the top of her dexterous game.” – Paste Magazine Dec 23, 2015 Full Review Orion: The Man Who Would Be King (2015) 87% 7.7/10 EDIT “We're left to marvel at the collection of outlandish characters who contributed to the Orion legend.” – Paste Magazine Dec 3, 2015 Full Review Mommy (2014) 89% 8/10 EDIT “Mommy is Dolan's own problem child. Consequently, it proves fitting that his evident love for it not only saves it but establishes it as a potent reminder that sometimes cinema feels most vital when it's this raw and messy.” – Paste Magazine Jan 29, 2015 Full Review Blackhat (2015) 33% 7.5/10 EDIT “As fascinated with harnessing light as the early humans were, Mann sees the skylines of Hong Kong, Los Angeles and Jakarta as fluorescent palettes with which to indulge his aesthetic whims.” – Paste Magazine Jan 23, 2015 Full Review American Sniper (2014) 71% 6.8/10 EDIT “Clint Eastwood's latest portrait of a man of violence unfolds with an immediacy that the octogenarian multi-hyphenate rarely musters anymore.” – Paste Magazine Jan 6, 2015 Full Review The Galapagos Affair: Satan Came to Eden (2014) 83% 3/5 EDIT “Its unhurried pace and inability to wring tension from the conflicting accounts ensures that though it fascinates, the film never fully enthrals.” – Total Film Jul 21, 2014 Full Review Under the Rainbow (2013) 64% 3/5 EDIT “An accomplished actress herself, Jaoui draws committed performances from her ensemble that effectively ground the breezy material.” – Total Film Jul 11, 2014 Full Review Devil's Knot (2013) 26% 2/5 EDIT “Egoyan listlessly retraces the trial's tragic course but uncovers nothing new about human nature in the belaboured process.” – Total Film Jun 20, 2014 Full Review IL Etait Une Foret (2013) 4/5 EDIT “Jacquet employs some poetic licence (and lyrical voiceovers) to venture into more fantastical territory.” – Total Film Jun 20, 2014 Full Review In Bloom (2013) 90% 4/5 EDIT “As civility and sympathy prove to be in ... short supply, the girls' unwavering devotion to each other makes for absorbing drama.” – Total Film May 5, 2014 Full Review Haunter (2013) 49% 3/5 EDIT “Though [Natali's] haunted-house tale ultimately lacks the strong storytelling its high concept calls for, it still compels with its ambition, occasional eloquence, and heart-in-the-right- place vibe.” – Total Film Apr 2, 2014 Full Review Noah (2014) 75% 4/5 EDIT “Aronofsky's first bona-fide blockbuster is a sweat-stained labour of love. Audacious and uncompromising, it's a legitimate epic.” – Total Film Mar 31, 2014 Full Review Le Week-End (2013) 89% 8/10 EDIT “Equally quick-witted and drawing from the same well of low-grade misanthropy (or perhaps it's just Britishness), Nick and Meg enjoy an easy repartee, tossing cutting remarks with the aplomb and precision of circus knife throwers.” – Paste Magazine Mar 20, 2014 Full Review Non-Stop (2014) 62% 6/10 EDIT “Despite the escalating ridiculousness, Non-Stop remains passable escapism until it runs headlong into a "Can I get real for second?" climax.” – Paste Magazine Feb 28, 2014 Full Review Pompeii (2014) 27% 6.3/10 EDIT “There are few other action filmmakers who can bring such enthusiasm to wanton destruction, racking up a massive body count and yet ensuring that the carnage goes down as smoothly as an overly buttered piece of popcorn.” – Paste Magazine Feb 21, 2014 Full Review A Field in England (2013) 86% 8.8/10 EDIT “[A Field in England] demonstrates how genuinely spellbinding cinema can be when it's wielded by an artist who doesn't so much play by his own rules as forego such restrictions entirely.” – Paste Magazine Feb 12, 2014 Full Review That Awkward Moment (2014) 23% 3.9/10 EDIT “Gormican operates under the assumption that we're still fully invested in these commitment-phobes, waiting on tenterhooks to see if they can wrap their heads around the Monogamy for Dummies life lessons being imparted.” – Paste Magazine Jan 30, 2014 Full Review Doomsdays (2013) 88% 4/5 EDIT “Mullins has fashioned a hilarious revisionist rebel movie that's absurdity is rivaled only by its acuity.” – Grolsch Film Works Jan 27, 2014 Full Review Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones (2014) 40% 4.5/10 EDIT “It feels like the announcement of a franchisor's global expansion strategy. Nothing on screen can equal the dread that arises at the very thought of Euro Paranormal Activity.” – Paste Magazine Jan 6, 2014 Full Review Misfire: The Rise and Fall of the Shooting Gallery (2013) 3/5 EDIT “Misfire stokes nostalgia for a time when great down-and-dirty films seemed to emerge from the ether rather than being laboriously born of very public cap-in-hand petitions.” – Grolsch Film Works Jan 2, 2014 Full Review Grudge Match (2013) 31% D EDIT “The seniors' climactic bout might be the most dispiriting scene to unfold in a boxing ring since a broken-down Mike Tyson surrendered to Kevin McBride back in 2005.” – Willamette Week Jan 2, 2014 Full Review August: Osage County (2013) 67% 3/5 EDIT “Maybe if Wells had served chicken instead of fish he might've discovered his appetite for unhinged debauchery.” – Grolsch Film Works Jan 2, 2014 Full Review The Armstrong Lie (2013) 82% C EDIT “Faced with an opponent desperately clinging to the last vestiges of his reputation, Gibney uncharacteristically fails to fully pull back the curtain.” – Willamette Week Dec 21, 2013 Full Review Oldboy (2013) 39% D EDIT “There's little perverse pleasure to be found in a revenge tale that's told without a trace of passion.” – Willamette Week Nov 27, 2013 Full Review Free Birds (2013) 20% 1/5 EDIT “Even tykes will tell it to get stuffed.” – Total Film Nov 25, 2013 Full Review
