5/10
     (2008)      "Somewhat better than the original, a film which it is mainly content to clone shamelessly." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
3/10
     (2008)      "The fact that this is not in any way original isn't really much of a problem. The fact that it's completely awful is." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
6/10
     (1946)      "One of the saddest little orphans in the whole of the Disney animated features canon... though the film hits more than it misses over the course of its ten sequences." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
4/10
     (2008)      "There might not be anything as utterly dispiriting as watching people pretending to have fun, and that is quite literally the only card the movie has to play." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
8/10
     (2009)      "Moodysson actually really loves his characters and wants them to be happy, rather than putting stock characters though a series of heavily predictable trials and tribulations on the way to a forced happy ending." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
9/10
     (2008)      "A talking-heads documentary has no business working as a nerve-wracking thriller, but here we have Man on Wire....one of the most exciting movies to come out all year." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
9/10
     (1976)      "It has lost none of its ability to startle all these years later, and for that alone it deserves respect." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
4/10
     (2009)      "Presents characters whose behavior is the behavior of grotesques; there is no connection drawn between what happens on the page and what is recognisably human." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
7/10
     (1986)      "At the very worst an intriguing misfire, and often much better than that." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
6/10
     (2007)      "A film in search of a subject." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
9/10
     (1977)      "One of the most charming of all Disney features... like anyone else, when I see it I am swiftly and inexorably carried back to childhood, in accordance with the drippy clichés." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
8/10
     (2007)      "What keeps the film from treading into sour vindictiveness is how fully the characters are developed." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
8/10
     (2007)      "One of the most effective of the many recent agitprop documentaries." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
4/10
     (2007)      "A film of terribly alienating character design (so many pinchy faces and tiny eyes!) blended with very plastic-y backgrounds." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
7/10
     (1948)      "A film much more entertaining than you'd expect, even if only two of its seven sequences individually reach classic status." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
6/10
     (2006)      "Perhaps the first Michael Mann film to almost completely lack a human element; or rather, the human element it possesses is thin and unconvincing." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
7/10
     (2007)      "When Clooney is onscreen, he is magnetic, pure and simple." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
8/10
     (2007)      "What's interesting about A Mighty Heart is not the political arena, but the individual human beings inside it." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
8/10
     (2008)      "As far as paint-by-numbers biopics go, Milk is unquestionably the best we've seen in years - maybe even the whole decade." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
6/10
     (2008)      "A messy patchwork of ideas spinning off every which way...but failing to be good doesn't mean that it's not interesting." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
3/10
     (2008)      "I suppose Offscreen Spring-Loaded Cats is in active development even as I write." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
7/10
     (2008)      "It's a little obvious that director Bharat Nalluri hasn't really worked in farce before." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
5/10
     (2008)      "Fails to achieve any kind of cumulative meaning outside of Korine's private amusement." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
6/10
     (2007)      "There's not a single moment that you haven't already seen in a different, better period film." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
5/10
     (2009)      "Given that the film was sold as the biggest kind of spectacle, it's disappointing though not surprising that it's so barbarically typical." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
9/10
     (2009)      "An exquisite gem of a science-fiction picture... pitched squarely at the patient, intelligent adults in the audience who want to have a good think." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
9/10
     (2009)      "Kim Hye-Ja's performance is absolutely magnificent, the kind of performance that seems to radiate straight out of the actress's body." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
10/10
     (1973)      "Comes close to capturing the pacing of life itself, where great changes happen at great length." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
6/10
     (2008)      "We come to an Argento picture for the surreal, Baroque imagery, and though much here fits those descriptions, there's a great deal of it that's also quite gaudy and goofy and, dare I say, campy." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
9/10
     (1939)      "It competes only with It Happened One Night for the title of Capra's most entertaining film ever." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
3/10
     (2008)      "Competes only with Prince Caspian for having the most inert action sequences of the summer." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
4/10
     (2009)      "If the imagination and enthusiasm behind the gore effects set it in the top tier of slasher movies, the rest of the film is no better than any of them." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
6/10
     (2008)      "Like the pies that give the film its title, My Blueberry Nights is really just a dessert, something sweet and mostly insubstantial." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
7/10
     (2006)      "Tells a familiar story in a familiar way with conviction and no small amount of talent on both sides of the camera, though it's hardly essential." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
9/10
     (1946)      "Launched the series of masterpieces in the late '40s and 1950s that forever after defined [Ford] as the greatest director of Westerns in history," [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
8/10
     (2009)      "One of the most humane things I have seen all year." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy   
  
10/10
     (2008)      "It's probably [Maddin's] best work yet...his easiest, funniest and most watchable film." [movie review]      Antagony & Ecstasy
