(2008)      "Heavy on moronic mysticism and light on imagination, excitement, and shot-to-shot coherence" [movie review]      CinePassion            10:30 P.M. Summer (1966)      "10:30 P.M. is still too early for Dassin's turgid melodrama." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine       1.5/4      10:30 P.M. Summer (1966)      "A typically gaudy souvenir from Jules Dassin's pretentious, post-HUAC Euro-wanderings." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            16 Blocks (2006)      "B-movie done with shrewd aplomb" [movie review]      CinePassion            1860 (1933)      "Keeps refreshing the eye" [movie review]      CinePassion            2 Days In Paris (2007)      "A shoddy, sour handheld-video excursion" [movie review]      CinePassion            2046 (2005)      "In the mood for sublimity" [movie review]      CinePassion            21 (2008)      "Luketic's dunderheaded, would-be caper is a morality tale where the only moral at stake is the dullard-hero's thoughtless entitlement" [movie review]      CinePassion            28 Weeks Later (2007)      "Explicitly envisions Britain as a deserted combat zone" [movie review]      CinePassion            30 Days of Night (2007)      "These 30 Days feel like an eternity" [movie review]      CinePassion            300 (2007)      "Asscrack-ugly" [movie review]      CinePassion       3/4      3:10 to Yuma (1957)      "A sturdy genre piece." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            3:10 to Yuma (2007)      "Gives "solid craftsmanship" a dreary name" [movie review]      CinePassion            3:10 to Yuma (1957)      "It's nice to have Delmer Daves's solid western on DVD, even this special edition is just a throwaway portion of its remake's promotional machine." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine            4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days (2008)      "Unrelieved gloom" [movie review]      CinePassion            The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005)      "Simultaneously subversive and reactionary" [movie review]      CinePassion            49 Up (2006)      "Essential viewing" [movie review]      CinePassion            The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T (1953)      "The rebelliousness that turns out to be good, old-fashioned anti-intellectualism feels less in line with the good Doctor's Whoville than with producer Stanley Kramer's Hackville" [movie review]      CinePassion            500 Days of Summer (2009)      "The couple's fluctuations between amorous rapture and wounding are matched by the film's own seesaw of poignancy and irritation" [movie review]      CinePassion       2/4      71 Fragments of a Chronology of Chance (1994)      "Michael Haneke's death-of-the-soul-of-Europe saga soldiers on with 71 Fragments of a Chronology of Chance, the final entry in his so-called "trilogy of emotional glacification."" [movie review]      Slant Magazine            71 Fragments of a Chronology of Chance (1994)      "Fans of the director's austerity will not want to miss the last entry in his feel-bad trilogy. Others may just want to skip straight to the Prozac. " [dvd review]      Slant Magazine            9 Songs (2005)      "It has the rough, penciled-in feel of a sketch, flurries of palpable physicality left along the path of a dissolving relationship" [movie review]      CinePassion            A Scanner Darkly (2006)      "Ponders the inherent doom of Slacker transgressors" [movie review]      CinePassion            Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948)      "Well-constructed and satisfyingly low" [movie review]      CinePassion            Ace in the Hole (1951)      "A prophetic scald" [movie review]      CinePassion            Achilles and the Tortoise (2008)      "Takeshi Kitano in a contemplative, pretty-but-is-it-art mood." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Across the Universe (2007)      "A baby-boomer masturbatory center" [movie review]      CinePassion            Act of Violence (1948)      "Fred Zinnemann's best movie" [movie review]      CinePassion            An Actor's Revenge (1963)      "There's a visual slash every minute" [movie review]      CinePassion            Adoration (2009)      "Moody, gliding filmmaking and ripples of quizzical humor save it from being a lugubrious game of therapeutic musical chairs." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Adventureland (2009)      "Observant, soulful, often achingly attuned to clashing emotions" [movie review]      CinePassion            An Affair to Remember (1957)      "An Affair to Remember and a movie to treasure." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine       3.5/4      An Affair to Remember (1957)      "Often regarded (or dreaded) as the ultimate chick flick, due in no small amount to its fetish-object role in Sleepless in Seattle, An Affair to Remember deserves better than to be the receptor of Meg Ryan's crocodile tears." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Alexandra (2008)      "Eccentric and tender, it is a picture out for grace rather than polemics, and it finds enough to make one see emotional intimacy anew" [movie review]      CinePassion            Alexandria... Why? (1978)      "Chahine's Alexandria is as fervidly distinctive as Fellini's Rome" [movie review]      CinePassion            Alibi (1929)      "An alternately arresting and creaky curio for students of the gangster genre." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine       2/4      Alibi (1929)      "Alibi is awkwardly suspended between the gliding camera of silent cinema and the stagnant medium-shot of early talkies." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Alice, Sweet Alice (1977)      "Every composition is more ornate than at first expected" [movie review]      CinePassion            All The King's Men (2006)      "Static and dreary, drained of juice and drenched in "respectable" lighting" [movie review]      CinePassion            Allegro Non Troppo (1979)      "Bozzetto's satire serves both Darwin and Genesis." [movie review]      CinePassion            Amelia (2009)      "Smotheringly conventional" [movie review]      CinePassion            American Dreamz (2006)      "The pieces are all in place for a slashing Preston Sturges jamboree. All that's missing are balls" [movie review]      CinePassion            American Gangster (2007)      "Flattened by Scott's cardboard evocation of New York in the '70s, Zaillian's shallow criticism of corrupting power, and weirdly bloodless performances" [movie review]      CinePassion            The American Soldier (1970)      "The phantoms of Old Germany are everywhere" [movie review]      CinePassion       1.5/4      American Teen (2008)      "Documentary focus is something that, like car keys, should not be given unquestioningly to high schoolers." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            The Amityville Horror (1979)      "An astonishing number of fumbled frissons" [movie review]      CinePassion            An Education (2009)      "The old "stay in school" adage has rarely been trotted out to such cop-out effect" [movie review]      CinePassion            And Then There Were None (1945)      "A tightly self-winding contraption" [movie review]      CinePassion            Android (1982)      "Erudite, low-tech sci-fi" [movie review]      CinePassion            The Andromeda Strain (1971)      "Disquieting" [movie review]      CinePassion
