[movie review]      Slant Magazine       2.5/4      Banished: How Whites Drove Blacks Out of Town in America (2007)      "Banished effectively evokes the manner in which events of the past are carried into the present via cultural traditions, artifacts, and unspoken local histories." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            The Bank Job (2008)      "The film comes out on the upper side of things by managing to avoid blue balls." [movie review]      The Projection Booth            Batman (1989)      "A hollow void of underdeveloped style and half-hearted execution." [movie review]      The Projection Booth            Be Kind Rewind (2008)      "Ultimately trades in schmaltz of the unearned kind." [movie review]      The Projection Booth            Bee Movie (2007)      "Decade-old leftovers reaching for laughs." [movie review]      The Projection Booth       1.5/4      Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon (2007)      "For all of its lame distastefulness, Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon is a sadly appropriate reflection of its time." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            Berlin Alexanderplatz (1983)      "If greatness is determined less by perfection than by sheer forward thrust, I can think of few better examples than Berlin Alexanderplatz." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Berlin Alexanderplatz (1983)      "This Criterion release could have been entirely without features and it would still rank among the finest DVDs of the year." [dvd review]      The House Next Door       3/4      The Betrayal (2008)      "A probing, textured mix of historical and personally shot footage set to an effectively disembodied voiceover." [movie review]      Slant Magazine       4/4      The Birth of a Nation (1915)      "Links the divide between American past and American present." [movie review]      The Projection Booth            Black Snake Moan (2007)      "Its sleazy, scuzzy nature comes not from a forward desire to push the standards of taste but a been-there sense of the ways of the world." [movie review]      The Projection Booth       3/4      Black White + Gray: A Portrait Of Sam Wagstaff And Robert Mapplethorpe (2007)      "Draws out the unseen riches that exist within what may otherwise appear typical or commonplace." [movie review]      Slant Magazine       1/4      Blood Diamond (2006)      "Truly offensive is the film's go-nowhere result, its purported liberal ideologies untapped beyond their potential for speedy, soulless entertainment." [movie review]      The Projection Booth       2.5/4      Bloodline (2008)      "As purportedly nonfictional cinema, Bloodline poses an implicit dilemma to viewers and critics: How do we know if what we're watching is real?" [movie review]      Slant Magazine       2/4      A Bloody Aria (2006)      "The film isn't illuminating, just inflammatory." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            The Bourne Ultimatum (2007)      "Zzzzzzzzz." [movie review]      The Projection Booth       3/4      Boy Interrupted (2009)      "Not unlike Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father, personal anguish here proves emotionally cathartic." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            The Brave Little Toaster (1988)      "Disney can't touch this." [movie review]      The Projection Booth            The Brave One (2007)      "If nothing else, enjoy Nicky Katt's hilariously smart-ass one-liners." [movie review]      The Projection Booth            Braveheart (1995)      "The only thing missing from this set is the preview for Gibson's next film: Dead Things I Beat with a Mace and Smear Across My Hairy Catholic Chest." [dvd review]      Slant Magazine       2/4      Braveheart (1995)      "So inspiring is his message that my own girlfriend channeled it, in the warning I received prior to my reviewing the film: You'd better love it, or I'll disembowel you." [movie review]      Slant Magazine            The Break-Up (2006)      "High-aimed intentions are thrown askew by the reliance on inconsistent laughs seemingly meant to break the otherwise overriding tension." [movie review]      The Projection Booth            Brick (2006)      "Brick exemplifies the difference between a cinematic talent show and mere karaoke." [movie review]      The Projection Booth            Bride Wars (2009)      "Enough to make one yearn for the rich complexity of Home Improvement." [movie review]      The Projection Booth            Bug (2007)      "A freakishly metaphorical look at the self-destructive implications of paranoia gone awry." [movie review]      The Projection Booth       2/4      Bustin' Down the Door (2008)      "You'll learn more about the pathos of hanging ten from Surf's Up." [movie review]      Slant Magazine
