	" In the end, while the humor is at times bit uneven, Allah Made Me Funny achieves its goal of breaking down stereotypes with a tongue-in-cheek grace." -- CultureCatch Posted Sep 29, 2008	Allah Made Me Funny (2008)	55%
	" Jonathan Levine is striving for an extreme quirkiness peppered with naturalism, not unlike that of Francis Ford Coppola's early You're a Big Boy Now (1966), Harold and Maude (1971), or the recent Running with Scissors." -- CultureCatch Posted Jul 19, 2008	The Wackness (2008)	67%
	" As the king of an amoral universe, as a purveyor of unrestricted evil for fun, Ledger's dastardly villain, attired as sort of a rotting Clarabell, has chosen his own damnation. He's jumped into an abyss he has dug himself, and he wants to pull us along." -- CultureCatch Posted Jul 19, 2008	The Dark Knight (2008)	95%
	" Quite unforgettable. Thorough in its investigation, complex in its analysis, and humane in its outcry, it is hard to imagine any documentary of more importance being released this year." -- CultureCatch Posted Apr 18, 2008	Standard Operating Procedure (2008)	78%
	" This zany, high-kickin', forever clucking, fecal-matter-spattered fun fest is Troma at its best. This is a Sweeney Todd for low-lifes. A must-see for vegans." -- CultureCatch Posted Apr 12, 2008	Poultrygeist (2008)	68%
	" Edmond elicits very strong performances as he surveys the wreckage of a woman's life and her ability --if any-- to persist." -- CultureCatch Posted Mar 22, 2008	Contre Toute Esp�rance (2007)	n/a
	" With truly fine performances, resulting in several riveting scenes, one can easily overlook the dingy cinematography and bothersome sound track to befriend this beguiling look at loneliness." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Mar 22, 2008	Vivere (2008)	47%
	" With wit, relentless questioning, and a little whining, Lotan has fashioned an engaging documentary that will have you unzipping this issue and rethinking your stance, no matter where you stand." -- CultureCatch Posted Feb 11, 2008	The Quest for the Missing Piece (2008)	n/a
	" Your appreciation of this circular plotting will have a great deal to do with how tongue-in-cheek you believe the film is" -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Feb 11, 2008	The Air I Breathe (2007)	14%
10/10	" The cast is superb, the direction flawless, and the film unmistakably consequential." -- CultureCatch Posted Jan 24, 2008	Tehilim (2007)	29%
	" Posey's admirers will experience a sensual intoxication that fans always experience when their film goddesses are at their very best." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Nov 22, 2007	Broken English (2007)	65%
	" A documentary with scintillating content about how societies around the world use their bodies as an art form. One African tribe even elongates their skulls, which looks chic, but I'm not sure what it does for their brains." -- Entertainment Asylum Posted Oct 20, 2007	Body Art (2001)	n/a
	" One of the best films about the homeless ever made." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Oct 20, 2007	Dark Days (2000)	96%
	" This is the tenth final version of the Blade Runner. This version is the best. It goes snap . . .snap . . . snap." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Oct 20, 2007	Blade Runner (1982)	91%
	" Imagine the Three Stooges if they had gone to Yale." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Oct 20, 2007	The Darjeeling Limited (2007)	67%
	" You enter expecting something really stupid, and you wind up with something really clever . . . hysterical . . . wise." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Oct 20, 2007	Freshman Orientation (2007)	33%
	" Accomplished melding of both an aesthetic and a moral sensibility, of politics and art, of love and disillusionment, of acting and being." -- CultureCatch Posted Oct 20, 2007	4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days (2008)	97%
	" In the end, this is a fevered tale of an outsider, spurred on by his belief in God, who believes his role in life is to save a people, and for a while it seems he is making a difference. What film can top that nowadays?" -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Sep 12, 2007	The Price of Sugar (2007)	72%
	" There are films about monstrous overbearing moms, often played by Shelley Winters, and there are those "heartwarming" losing-one's-virginity flicks ("Summer of '42"). Australia's entry into this field consolidates the best elements of both genres." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Jul 8, 2007	Introducing The Dwights (2007)	52%
	" this production gives The Sopranos a run for the money when it comes to blood-laden butchery. Not once but twice does this Macbeth saunter about splattered with hemoglobin from head to foot, looking very Carrie-like, post-bucket spilling." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Jul 4, 2007	Macbeth (2007)	46%
	" SiCKO is, without argument, one of the most important films you'll ever see in your lifetime, which might be rather short depending upon your HMO." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Jun 27, 2007	Sicko (2007)	93%
	" Recall those early British comedies that all seemed to star Rita Tushingham. Well, attach the 1st half of one of those to the 2nd half of a Hitchcock chiller, and you have an enjoyable film that'll have you digging your fingernails deeply into your nachos" -- Entertainment Asylum Posted Jun 27, 2007	Shallow Grave (1987)	n/a
	" But in a sense, Pasolini's was the perfect death for someone who lived on the edge, whose art was raw as it could be." -- Entertainment Asylum Posted Jun 27, 2007	Mamma Roma (1962)	100%
	" Although the head-shaved, sprightly Eytan Fox might just be a prince of the Kosher New Wave emanating out of Israel for the past decade, he's definitely the king of the faygala division of the same movement." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Jun 21, 2007	The Bubble (2007)	56%
	" Essential viewing for any student of Middle-Eastern affairs and scholar of human nature." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Jun 20, 2007	Hot House (2006)	n/a
	" *Not unlike Amos Gitai's Kadosh* (1999), this is a saga of how an unconscious misinterpretation of religion can disintegrate a family instead of enhancing its life experience.*" -- New York Theatre Wire* Posted Jun 11, 2007	My Father My Lord (2008)	93%
	" What makes Venus unforgettable is not the fine direction and script, or Vanessa Redgrave's startling cameo as Maurice's suffering ex-wife, or Whittaker's award-worthy debut; it's that the viewer can't draw a line between O'Toole's career and Maurice's." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Jun 8, 2007	Venus (2006)	89%
	" Puccini is the joyously refreshing romancer that it tries so hard to be. Its success has a lot to do with its casting directors who have peopled both the major and minor roles with aplomb. Even off-off-Broadway legend Helen Hanft has a cameo." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Jun 8, 2007	Puccini for Beginners (2007)	49%
	" One can see Moli�re being jealous of the plot line, and Karl Marx applauding. You see capitalists who exploit the masses do not fare too well in this venture." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Jun 8, 2007	The Valet (2007)	69%
	" Pegg in a stellar comic performance lifts the film from being a mere applaudable satire to a first-class entertainment. Imagine Jimmy Stewart in "Animal House" or Steve McQueen in "Road Trip."" -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Jun 8, 2007	Hot Fuzz (2007)	90%
	" If you recall the long-running TV series "Alice," you'll pretty much be revisiting familiar territory. Sadly, though, no one belts out, 'Kiss my grits.'" -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Jun 8, 2007	Waitress (2007)	88%
	" delightfully acted, entertaining, Franco take on the "Sex in the City" lifestyle among the kosher set." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Jan 16, 2007	Comme t'y es belle! (2006)	n/a
	" You can easily tell that the budget was threadbare. In fact, the catering for the crew probably consisted of tap water and peanut-and-jelly sandwiches. " -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Sep 4, 2006	Sidekick (2008)	100%
	" If in 20 or 30 years, Daniel Craig has retired from playing Ian Fleming's stalwart secret agent, the series' producers need look no further than Alex Pettyfer for their new man." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Sep 2, 2006	Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker (2006)	33%
	" if you are not afraid of tranquility, if your favorite part of Antonioni's "Blowup" is the tennis game with the imaginary ball, or if you carry a joint in your Velamints tin, "Old Joy" will be your joy." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Sep 1, 2006	Old Joy (2006)	85%
	" John Waters Meets "Sleepless in Seattle" in this sweet, at-times "tasteless" comic concoction about romance, reputation, the need to confess, and the yearning of society to pigeonhole everyone with a one-dimensional label." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Aug 25, 2006	Sleeping Dogs Lie (2006)	63%
	" With Joel Schumacher's tasteful but second-rate-Sidney-Lumet direction and Akiva Goldsman's nuts-and-bolts script, these boys have created a surprisingly stirring indictment of racism." -- Entertainment Asylum Posted Aug 13, 2006	A Time to Kill (1996)	78%
	" what we have here is an at-times plaintive love letter to women: a paean to their humor, their loyalty, and especially their ability to survive their encounters with cheating, lying fornicators who employ their penises as weapons of submission." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Aug 13, 2006	Volver (2006)	91%
	" Just when I thought I'd bore myself to death, having to tell yet another inquirer that the only must-see comedy of the moment was "Little Miss Sunshine," an almost equally fine option has arisen." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Aug 10, 2006	Keeping Mum (2006)	55%
	" Cutting from one angst-filled moment to another, Malaysian-born Tan has created an honest exploration of what it is to be gay and have more on your mind than creatine, Ellen's talk show, and Queer Eye on the Straight Butt. " -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Aug 8, 2006	Happy Birthday (2003)	n/a
	" The unsightly Bukowski, in his rumpled attire, and his lead characters (who are most often spins on himself) are fascinating personalities to watch, sort of like little tornados which are more destructive to themselves than to society at large." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Aug 8, 2006	Factotum (2006)	75%
	" Apparently, you can remove the breasts off a girl, but not her female gonads. " -- Bay Area Reporter Posted Aug 7, 2006	Southern Comfort (2001)	92%
	" Miranda is a distaff version of Donald Trump. There's the power, the arrogance, the success, plus the delicious-to-view unbridled narcissism of an unchecked megalomaniac. She's Hannibal Lector in Dolce & Gabbana." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Aug 7, 2006	The Devil Wears Prada (2006)	76%
	" Here is a small masterpiece about the erosion of civilized egos by the elements." -- Detour Magazine Posted Aug 6, 2006	The King is Alive (2001)	60%
	" Russo feels his direction of this film is a brave, seditious deed. The audience I was surrounded by at an advance screening agreed." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Aug 6, 2006	America: Freedom To Fascism (2006)	24%
	" Bertolt Brecht is probably doing somersaults of joy in his grave or wherever his remains happen to be." -- PlanetOut Posted Aug 6, 2006	Cradle Will Rock (1999)	63%
	" Voltaire, never a huge advocate of organized religion, would be having a fine chuckle nowadays over the current Dan Brown brouhaha." -- New York Theatre Wire Posted May 18, 2006	The Da Vinci Code (2006)	25%
	" Slesin, who's already won an Oscar for her documentary, "Ten Year Lunch: The Wit and The Legend of the Algonquin Round Table," should at least be racking up another nomination with this sterling effort." -- Aufbau Posted May 15, 2006	Secret Lives: Hidden Children and Their Rescuers During WWII (2002)	92%
	...a harrowing, enlightening venture where 'We live fast, die young, and leave a good-looking corpse,' sadly isn't just a throwaway line uttered early in a bar scene. It's an epigraph. -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Apr 10, 2006	Drum (2004)	86%
	" Not unlike "Gattaca" and "Dark City," V for Vendetta" will assuredly bomb its way into a thinking man's cult film status. " -- New York Theatre Wire Posted Mar 27, 2006	V For Vendetta (2005)	73%
