Far From Heaven (2002) 87% EDIT “Beneath this conservative faade lies a complicated and progressive commentary on the present that Haynes leaves to the viewer to interpret.” – PopMatters Dec 1, 2002 Full Review Storytelling (2001) 54% EDIT “The stories here suffer from the chosen format.” – PopMatters Jan 25, 2002 Full Review What Time Is It There? (2001) 85% EDIT “Although What Time offers Tsai's usual style and themes, it has a more colorful, more playful tone than his other films.” – PopMatters Jan 18, 2002 Full Review The Royal Tenenbaums (2001) 81% EDIT “With its emphasis on characters over events -- though a lot does happens -- The Royal Tenenbaums occasionally makes the audience, much like Eli, want to be part of the family, in spite of their neuroses and flaws.” – PopMatters Dec 14, 2001 Full Review Dog Run (1996) 36% EDIT “The refusal to make the squatting and drug-using lifestyle exciting or exaggeratedly excruciating is commendable.” – PopMatters Oct 22, 2001 Full Review Fat Girl (2001) 73% EDIT “The sex in Fat Girl is ... an all-consuming, character-defining process of sorting through emotions and attitudes that convincingly perplexes these girls.” – PopMatters Oct 19, 2001 Full Review La ciénaga (2001) 88% EDIT “Within the first moments of her debut feature, La Ciénaga, writer/director Lucrecia Martel demonstrates a piercing sensibility and a sharp eye.” – PopMatters Oct 12, 2001 Full Review L.I.E. (2001) 85% EDIT “Granted, these desires can be conflicted and perplexing, but the representation here reads as a failure of nerve, a refusal to take on an uncomfortable topic.” – PopMatters Oct 8, 2001 Full Review In the Mood for Love (2000) 92% EDIT “Shines with radiant color schemes and two devastating central performances.” – PopMatters Feb 8, 2001 Full Review Before Night Falls (2000) 74% EDIT “A sumptuous, dreamy film that only touches reality in its ravaging final moments.” – PopMatters Feb 2, 2001 Full Review O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000) 78% EDIT “The ideas seem half-baked at best, and the gags are the flattest in any of the Coens' films.” – PopMatters Jan 4, 2001 Full Review Deep Blue Sea (1999) 60% EDIT “Packs a brutal scare!” – Citysearch Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Small Time Crooks (2000) 66% EDIT “Small Time Crooks, finally, brings Allen back to form.” – PopMatters Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Dancer in the Dark (2000) 69% EDIT “Although less developed and satisfying than Breaking the Waves, Dancer in the Dark is ultimately more devastating.” – PopMatters Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Tarzan (1999) 90% EDIT “Disney has crafted one of its most satisfying family films yet!” – Citysearch Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Mission: Impossible II (2000) 58% EDIT “The action and the intended-to-be-graceful moments are more silly than stunning, prompting more laughter than applause.” – PopMatters Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Frequency (2000) 70% EDIT “I realized there was a surprising potential for a provocative film if only its makers had not taken a wrong step at every turn.” – PopMatters Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Yi Yi (2000) 97% EDIT “With Yi Yi, Edward Yang accomplishes what so few films (U.S.-made, in particular) even strive to do: present an earnest depiction of familial relations.” – PopMatters Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Chuck & Buck (2000) 85% EDIT “As the film stands, it sheds some light on what happens between young boys, but very little about what happens between men after they have grown up ... whatever that means.” – PopMatters Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Gladiator (2000) 80% EDIT “Had the filmmakers been daring enough to make the movie without its clunky dialogue or without digital filler, Gladiator could have been epic in more ways than its running time.” – PopMatters Jan 1, 2000 Full Review
