Sambizanga (1973) Sarah Manvel As with the observational style of filmmaking that burst onto the scene with Easy Rider and others in the west, Sambizanga believes that paying attention is a radical act.

The Cheaters (1930) Sarah Manvel A story of revenge, fashion and poetic justice, thin by modern standards, but interesting enough to hold the attention.

Chess of the Wind (1976) Sarah Manvel A grand guignol of ... shattered glass, double-crosses, piled-up corpses and sexual betrayal.

The Juniper Tree (1990) Sarah Manvel While Björk obsessives are the most obvious audience... it's an enjoyable watch for anyone who wants to see a movie that is greater than the sum of its parts.

Hunger (2008) Sarah Manvel It pretends to have an objective point of view, but only grants one group of characters the dignity of individuality.

Killer of Sheep (1978) Sarah Manvel Killer of Sheep finds the beauty in the relentless ordinariness, making this a remarkable film.

The Wackness (2008) Sarah Manvel Fortunately Peck's diamond acting pulls the film above its murky setting. It takes some courage to be this vulnerable on screen, and Peck is uncommonly good at it.

The Class (2008) Sarah Manvel [Cantet] reminds all of us that kids are just kids, and every last one of them deserves a fair chance... The Class and its critical reception, proves the playing field certainly is changing.

Hunger (2010) Sarah Manvel I am so angry about Hunger. It wants to provoke political debate without providing a context for the political situation it depicts.

Synecdoche, New York (2008) Sarah Manvel The film very carefully sets up several interesting ideas, but then drops them as too many conflicting ideas become impossible to juggle.
Posted Aug 07, 2018  Edit critic review
Black Swan (2010) Sarah Manvel It's trash -- a statement not to be made lightly.
Posted Aug 06, 2018  Edit critic review
Brighton Rock (2010) Sarah Manvel If director Rowan Joffe had seized the moment and update the story to the present, it would have been so much more interesting.

Unknown (2011) Sarah Manvel It's hard to know if the problem lies with the script... or in the editing by Tim Alverson.
Posted Aug 06, 2018  Edit critic review
Broken Lines (2008) Sarah Manvel Broken Lines is a marvellous showcase for Bettany, a useful calling card for Rosa and Fredenburgh, and something for the rest of us to chalk up to experience.

Knuckle (2011) Sarah Manvel Knuckle doesn't get as near to the heart of Traveller culture as it had the opportunity to. It's a golden opportunity, squandered.

Carnage (2011) Sarah Manvel Carnage is,... worth seeing for Jodie Foster's first major performance in years. As a woman utterly convinced of her own superiority and righteousness, Foster gives us a very welcome reminder of her talent and her fearlessness.

C.R.A.Z.Y. (2005) Boyd van Hoeij If Brokeback Mountain was the bleak gay drama of 2005 that all audiences could enjoy, then another 2005 feature, the equally heterosexually enjoyable C.R.A.Z.Y., puts the colour back in the adjective 'gay'.

Sherrybaby (2006) Boyd van Hoeij SherryBaby is more often concerned with getting everything right the American indie way rather than trying to probe its characters and situations for emotional truths.

The Art of Flight (2011) Boyd van Hoeij The image quality sometimes is misty at best but the pay-off of these stories lies in the fact that they would otherwise have probably remained untold.
