Contemporary Color (2016) 71% 5/10 EDIT “While not wholly unenjoyable, the film lacks the necessary urgency and purpose required to hold anyone's attention ... Even the most avid David Byrne fans will be left checking their watches.” – Under the Radar Mar 14, 2017 Full Review Operation Avalanche (2016) 69% 7/10 EDIT “Johnson creates a lovely parallel to his own filmmaking style in the route the fictional Matt takes to set up his fake moon landing.” – Under the Radar Sep 29, 2016 Full Review Goat (2016) 79% 7.5/10 EDIT “Director Andrew Neel and writer David Gordon Green masterfully infuse the latent physical threat that arises when a group of hyper-masculine frat boys get together into a quiet indie drama.” – Under the Radar Sep 22, 2016 Full Review Equity (2016) 82% 6.5/10 EDIT “At it's best, it's a valuable, long overdue feminist entry into a genre long dominated by overbearing machismo that falls flat under the weight of its own importance.” – Under the Radar Aug 1, 2016 Full Review The Fits (2015) 96% 7/10 EDIT “A highly composed technical tour de force.” – Under the Radar Jun 3, 2016 Full Review Holy Hell (2016) 73% 6.5/10 EDIT “What sets this film apart is Allen's ability to deliver with integrity and sensitivity extremely intimate stories of optimism, faith, and painful disillusionment.” – Under the Radar May 27, 2016 Full Review One More Time (2015) 50% 2/10 EDIT “A mess of confused platitudes, clichd dramatic moments, and a whole lot of embarrassing exposition delivered by peripheral characters.” – Under the Radar Apr 15, 2016 Full Review Nothing Left Unsaid: Gloria Vanderbilt & Anderson Cooper (2016) 67% 5/10 EDIT “Without the momentum provided by a big reveal or a larger, overarching point, the film becomes repetitive, lags.” – Under the Radar Apr 15, 2016 Full Review Embrace of the Serpent (2015) 97% 7/10 EDIT “Embrace of the Serpent raises provocative questions about the depiction of native cultures onscreen and in Anthropological texts.” – Under the Radar Feb 26, 2016 Full Review Moonwalkers (2015) 42% 5/10 EDIT “Moonwalkers takes [a] weird, clumsy turn.” – Under the Radar Jan 16, 2016 Full Review Anesthesia (2015) 27% 5.5/10 EDIT “Like an East Coast Crash (2004) with better acting and a higher IQ.” – Under the Radar Jan 12, 2016 Full Review The Girl in the Book (2015) 93% 6.5/10 EDIT “Cohn ... adeptly balances elements of contemporary romantic comedy and scathing cultural criticism in a film that is obviously deeply personal and simultaneously universal.” – Under the Radar Dec 15, 2015 Full Review Partisan (2015) 58% 6.5/10 EDIT “Vincent Cassel's primal physicality and threatening charm are front and center in this taut dystopian fable.” – Under the Radar Oct 6, 2015 Full Review Misunderstood (2014) 81% 6.5/10 EDIT “In the end, Argento's vision fully unhinges ... [a] frustratingly uneven but beautiful film.” – Under the Radar Sep 25, 2015 Full Review Dirty Weekend (2015) 31% 2/10 EDIT “Neil LaBute's latest confirms that the writer/director is out of touch and out of material.” – Under the Radar Sep 9, 2015 Full Review Eden (2014) 84% 7/10 EDIT “Sven Hansen-Lve, who co-wrote the script, has a unique story to tell.” – Under the Radar Jul 8, 2015 Full Review One Cut, One Life (2014) 100% 5.5/10 EDIT “Through their self-reflective exploration, Ed [Pincus] and Lucia [Small] point their lens at the tough questions examining death, loss, fate and art's relationship to privacy.” – Under the Radar May 13, 2015 Full Review Closer to the Moon (2013) 46% 3.5/10 EDIT “Closer to the Moon is an unremarkable reenactment of a remarkable story.” – Under the Radar Apr 24, 2015 Full Review Clouds of Sils Maria (2014) 91% 8.5/10 EDIT “Director Olivier Assayas is one step ahead of the audience the whole time.” – Under the Radar Apr 16, 2015 Full Review The Harvest (2013) 70% 3/10 EDIT “Ultimately, peppered with unresolved metaphors, The Harvest is a thriller without tension, a horror that doesn't scare.” – Under the Radar Apr 16, 2015 Full Review X/Y (2014) 54% 2/10 EDIT “Ultimately, this series of unrelated clichs never builds to anything.” – Under the Radar Mar 6, 2015 Full Review Wild Canaries (2014) 83% 7.5/10 EDIT “Like much of Woody Allen's mid-career work, it's a light romantic comedy handled with aplomb.” – Under the Radar Feb 26, 2015 Full Review Li'l Quinquin (2015) 100% 7/10 EDIT “Dumont packs in the literary and cinematic references in exchange for the usual suspense of the television mystery.” – Under the Radar Jan 24, 2015 Full Review The Color of Time (2012) 5% 2/10 EDIT “The Color of Time serves as a reminder that literalizing and adapting poetry for the screen is usually not a good idea.” – Under the Radar Dec 16, 2014 Full Review Life Partners (2014) 72% 4/10 EDIT “Unfortunately, Life Partners is more committed to being edgy and relevant than it is to presenting an honest female friendship.” – Under the Radar Dec 5, 2014 Full Review
