The Connection (2014) 77% 3/5 EDIT “It's familiar. We see the tale unfolding before our eyes from the beginning. But that doesn't make it any less enjoyable. It's a fast-paced story, confidently told.” – Fan The Fire Feb 25, 2016 Full Review While We're Young (2014) 84% 4/5 EDIT “Sharp editing, a masterful attention to pace and wonderful performances.” – Fan The Fire Apr 9, 2015 Full Review Leave the World Behind (2014) 67% 4/5 EDIT “The film is certainly a visual delight, and does a better job than any film this critic has seen of reflecting how it feels to be at an electronic dance event of that size.” – Fan The Fire Nov 7, 2014 Full Review The Two Faces of January (2014) 80% 3/5 EDIT “The film is worth watching just to see Isaac's performance grow through the final third: as misery, grief, and hate fuse together in a tumultuous, hopeless climax.” – Fan The Fire Nov 7, 2014 Full Review Obvious Child (2014) 90% 4/5 EDIT “Beneath the clinical, sarcastic wit, there is a depth to her treatment of the story that builds gradually into a poignant, mature understanding of her central characters and the world they inhabit.” – Fan The Fire Nov 7, 2014 Full Review Catch Me Daddy (2014) 93% 4/5 EDIT “Wolfe's singular vision of hopeless destruction finds its muse in this charming and powerful young actress (Ahmed). Her strength will pull out what is left of your breath like a vacuum, and leave you stumbling for the exits in need of respite.” – Fan The Fire Jun 24, 2014 Full Review Bernie (2011) 88% 3/5 EDIT “a well-rounded dramatic film taken from a refreshingly uplifting perspective.” – Fan The Fire Jun 12, 2013 Full Review Anna Karenina (2012) 63% 3/5 EDIT “We are left with an entertaining but hollow story filled with entertaining but hollow characters.” – Fan The Fire Sep 30, 2012 Full Review American Reunion (2012) 45% 3/5 EDIT “It's a treasure to revisit a place with so many fond memories, even if the memories aren't technically real... or ours.” – Fan The Fire Apr 30, 2012 Full Review Wanderlust (2012) 58% 3/5 EDIT “This film isn't going to stick in your mind because of a stirring and original narrative or heart-wrenching lead performance; it's going to stick there because it is just good fun, plain and simple.” – Fan The Fire Mar 2, 2012 Full Review J. Edgar (2011) 44% 2/5 EDIT “How Eastwood has managed to create so dull a film is actually quite stunning.” – Fan The Fire Dec 20, 2011 Full Review Cowboys & Aliens (2011) 44% 2/5 EDIT “So in much the same way that 'Transformers' is essentially a robot war with a few humans stumbling around trying to get laid; this film should really have been called 'Alien Bracelet Vs. Aliens... With Some Cowboys Falling Off Their Horses'.” – Fan The Fire Sep 2, 2011 Full Review Project Nim (2011) 97% 3/5 EDIT “Marsh is too content framing the entire film around the narrative spun by its subjects, rather than stamping his own authorship on the film, and as a result it lacks the power and depth of his previous work.” – Fan The Fire Sep 2, 2011 Full Review Life in a Day (2011) 79% 4/5 EDIT “A life shouldn't need to be heroic, controversial, or glamorous for the wider world to take notice of it, wonderful little things happen every day, and finally a film has come along that celebrates every single one of them.” – Fan The Fire May 20, 2011 Full Review Hanna (2011) 71% 4/5 EDIT “This film channels the haunting fantasy of the Brothers Grimm, with the hazy, colourful power of Lolita, and the thumping action of a Bourne film.” – Fan The Fire May 1, 2011 Full Review The Way (2010) 82% 3/5 EDIT “But somehow, despite the simple and sometimes obtuse storytelling, there is something strangely intimate and mesmerising about this film.” – Fan The Fire Apr 20, 2011 Full Review Thor (2011) 77% 2/5 EDIT “Somebody, somewhere, is proud of the art direction and animation that brings this city to life, but it just looks like a Lord of the Rings fan film.” – Fan The Fire Apr 20, 2011 Full Review The Extraordinary Adventures of Adèle Blanc-Sec (2010) 88% 3/5 EDIT “The zipping speed of the storytelling even drips down into the minutiae of the editing, with cuts occurring on opening doors, or using visual cues with dialogue: the story never calms down for a second.” – Fan The Fire Apr 12, 2011 Full Review I Am Number Four (2011) 32% 2/5 EDIT “There is not one moment in this film that astounds the senses, tickles the solar plexus, or surprises our expectations.” – Fan The Fire Feb 18, 2011 Full Review I Come With the Rain (2008) 1/5 EDIT “A meandering and meaningless pile of drivel that does a disservice to its many fine performances.” – Fan The Fire Feb 18, 2011 Full Review Barney's Version (2010) 77% 3/5 EDIT “There is a flippancy and incorrigibility to the style and pace of the storytelling that matches perfectly with our lovable, pig-headed hero.” – Fan The Fire Jan 31, 2011 Full Review Paul (2011) 70% 2/5 EDIT “The hiccups of comedy genius feel like hollow victories in a generally average film.” – Fan The Fire Jan 31, 2011 Full Review True Grit (2010) 95% 4/5 EDIT “At just thirteen years of age, Heilee Steinfeld delivers one of the most memorable performances of the year.” – Fan The Fire Jan 11, 2011 Full Review The Fighter (2010) 91% 4/5 EDIT “Bale's performance is so good it almost collapses into mimicry, but his twisted and terrifyingly accurate ability to portray the quirks and simmering undertones of difficult characters ensures that his performances always transcend such claims.” – Fan The Fire Jan 11, 2011 Full Review Morning Glory (2010) 57% 3/5 EDIT “Roger Michell's film is a straight forward romantic comedy, refreshingly strong on the latter and sparing with the former.” – Fan The Fire Jan 11, 2011 Full Review
