True Hollywood Story segments" [movie review]      CinePassion            Factotum (2006)      "Minimalism-a-thon, numb from the very start" [movie review]      CinePassion            Fahrenheit 451 (1966)      "Truffaut faces Bradbury's abstractions head on, not as science-fiction but as humanistic fairy-tale" [movie review]      CinePassion            The Fall (2008)      "A long, long trip through the museum" [movie review]      Slant Magazine       3.5/4      The Fall of the Roman Empire (1964)      "Put bluntly, the difference between El Cid and Fall is the difference between faith in a concept of heroism that can transcend even death." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            The Fall of the Roman Empire (1964)      "The HBO series may have orgies on its side, but Mann's underappreciated epic goes deeper and darker into the fall of Rome." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine       3/4      Fallen Angel (1945)      "Its subtle analysis of shadowy tropes proves both a continuation and a deepening of Preminger's use of moral ambiguity as a tool of human insight." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Fallen Angel (1945)      "This underrated noir drama deserves to get out of Laura's shadow." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine            Fando y Lis (1967)      "Very much a late '60s freakout, tricked out with car cemeteries and action painting in the nude, the movie is fake-profound but seldom dull." [movie review]      CinePassion            The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006)      "Tediously testosterone-filled" [movie review]      CinePassion            Fast Food Nation (2006)      "Alt-weekly defeatism" [movie review]      CinePassion       4/4      FAUST (1926)      "Films from the German Expressionism era are famous for their fiercely stylized mise-en-scene, and to Murnau the medium's very artificiality provided the keys to locating its truths." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            FAUST (1926)      "A masterpiece gets the deluxe DVD treatment it deserves." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine            Fay Grim (2007)      "Shows Hartley shrinking even as he goes global" [movie review]      CinePassion            Fear of Fear (1975)      "Manages to be both more clinical and more humane than Martha" [movie review]      CinePassion            Fear Strikes Out (1957)      "Grimace-a-ton" [movie review]      CinePassion            Fearless (2006)      "A honorable send-off" [movie review]      CinePassion            Feast of Love (2007)      "A ruthlessly winsome movie" [movie review]      CinePassion            Fellini's Roma (1972)      "Eternal City fugue" [movie review]      CinePassion            Female Vampire (1973)      "Brimming with Klimt visions and risqué jests" [movie review]      CinePassion            Final Destination 3 (2006)      "Even Hostel showed more respect for the dead" [movie review]      CinePassion       2/4      Finances Of The Grand Duke (1924`)      "It should be seen by Murnau completists, and by anyone who's ever wondered what Max Schreck looks like out of his Nosferatu makeup." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Finances Of The Grand Duke (1924`)      "A tepidly farcical curio for Murnau completists." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine            Fires on the Plain (1959)      ""Careful you don't get eaten." War is hell, and Ichikawa takes you through it." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine       3.5/4      Fires on the Plain (1959)      "The scabrous fury of Fires on the Plain feels closer to the heart of the notoriously hard-to-pin-down Japanese director." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            A Fistful of Dollars (1964)      "Very much an act of sardonic disrespect toward the genre, yet it's also a legitimate passion play" [movie review]      CinePassion            A Fistful of Dynamite (1971)      "Impossibly virile and caustic" [movie review]      CinePassion            Fixed Bayonets! (1951)      "Masterful" [movie review]      CinePassion            Flags of Our Fathers (2006)      "A human-sized contemplation of propaganda and fame" [movie review]      CinePassion            Flamingo Road (1949)      "Germanic technique flourishes in Americana" [movie review]      CinePassion            Flanders (2006)      "A congealed shrug" [movie review]      CinePassion            The Flight of the Red Balloon (2008)      "A visitor's beatific evocation" [movie review]      CinePassion       3/4      Flow: For Love of Water (2008)      "The inconvenient truth at the center of Flow: For Love of Water is that while the oil crisis is intensely debated and documented, disasters involving an even more essential fluid go perilously unnoticed." [movie review]      Slant Magazine       2/4      Flushed Away (2006)      "Digital animation has elbowed claymation out of the frame and a certain frenetic coarsening has settled over Aardman's latest." [movie review]      Slant Magazine       2/4      Fog City Mavericks (2007)      "When "maverick" is thrown around this cheaply, it's just a step for somebody to mount an auteurist case for Chris Columbus." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Fog City Mavericks (2007)      "It's difficult to see the real brilliance of the Bay Area film scene through this self-congratulatory fog." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine       3/4      For All Mankind (1989)      "If not the screen's ultimate portrait of space travel, For All Mankind remains a peerless planetarium show." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            For All Mankind (1989)      "Not quite a space odyssey, but a peerless planetarium show." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine            For Ever Mozart (1996)      "Art can't hold back the world's horrors in Jean-Luc Godard's grave and quizzical fugue" [movie review]      CinePassion            For Your Consideration (2006)      "The blunt of derision ends up falling not on the shallowness of the system but on the pathetic souls who thought something would come out of it" [movie review]      CinePassion            Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008)      "One of the year's dingiest comedies" [movie review]      CinePassion            The Fountain (2006)      "The continuous sense of deeply felt discovery tempers the movie's overreaching pretentiousness" [movie review]      CinePassion            Fox Horror Classics Vol. 2 (1932)      "Not particularly horror and not particularly classics, these overlooked films still warrant a look for the dedicated movie buff." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine       4/4      Francesco, Giullare Di Dio (1950)      "The theme is less the simplicity of religion than the religiosity of simplicity." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Freedomland (2005)      "Ridiculous" [movie review]      CinePassion       3/4      Frenzy (1972)      "Frenzy is easily the strongest of the master's final works." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Frenzy (1972)      "Family Plot may be Hitchcock's official swan song, but the nasty, nasty FFrenzy is the real last hurrah."
