Gladiator (2000) Dennis Harvey Gladiator has the physical heft and scale of a true epic; it's seldom laughable, which is saying a lot, and reasonably entertaining.

Set Me Free (1999) B. Ruby Rich Pool has reached a new level entirely as writer-director of deeply emotional yet lightly humorous storytelling. Best of all, she's taken a genre known for its softness, the coming-of-age film, and put some bite into it.

Woman on Top (2000) B. Ruby Rich Shut off the analytic sector of your brain, and the rest of you can, have a thoroughly pleasant night out at the movie theater.

The Joy of Life (2005) Dennis Harvey The Joy of Life is a cinematic love poem of sorts, just semirequited, as most things involving love are.

The Kill Team (2013) Dennis Harvey Its extraordinary story can hardly help but involve and outrage.

To Be Takei (2014) Dennis Harvey Even if you've tired of Takei's ubiquity online and onscreen, this campy but fond tribute is great fun.

Blood Junkie (2010) Dennis Harvey Blood Junkie is pure retro-flavva'd silliness.
