[movie review]      Playback:stl       7/10      Afghan Star (2009)      "...by the end of the 88 minute journey you'll learn more about contemporary Afghanistan than you will from a month of watching television news in the United States." [movie review]      Playback:stl       10/10      All About Eve (1950)      "Sanders...was ideally cast in this role: you can feel in Addison's every word the world-weariness of the actor who would eventually commit suicide at age 65..." [movie review]      Playback:stl       2/10      All About Steve (2009)      "But the main message ... is that movie studios think a lot of people will pay good money to see Sandra Bullock humiliate herself yet again in front of the camera." [movie review]      Playback:stl       6/10      American Casino (2009)      "If there's an overarching theme it's that people respond to incentives and so regulation of the financial market is necessary to see that the incentives offered are not perverse." [movie review]      Playback:stl       7/10      American Harmony (2009)      "American Harmony is the Pumping Iron of barbershop quartet singing." [movie review]      Playback:stl       7/10      Amreeka (2009)      "Dabis wisely keeps her film firmly grounded in the personal and specific...focusing on the experiences of one family which she makes us care about." [movie review]      Playback:stl       9/10      An Education (2009)      "...a complex and morally ambiguous story which rewards the audience's attention without resorting to pushing their buttons." [movie review]      Playback:stl       6/10      Anger Me (2007)      "Anger Me is basically an extended interview with Anger, who appears at the side of the frame before a blue screen showing archival footage and clips" [dvd review]      Playback:stl       7/10      Anita O'Day - The Life Of A Jazz Singer (2008)      "If Anita O'Day had to choose a motto for her life, it would probably be "That's how it went down."" [movie review]      Playback:stl       8/10      Annemarie Schwarzenbach: Une Suisse Rebelle (2000)      "Weaving together interviews, archival materials, re-enactments and readings from Schwarzenbach's works, it's an excellent introduction to the writer and her times." [movie review]      Playback:stl       3/10      The AntiChrist (1974)      "Now von Trier's trying his hand at the horror porn genre without abandoning the genital close-ups, making Antichrist a sort of horror porn squared." [movie review]      Playback:stl       7/10      Anvil! The Story of Anvil (2009)      "It certainly helps that Gervasi has a sense of humor... the band's adventures often resemble a real-life version of This is Spinal Tap" [movie review]      Playback:stl       4/10      Appaloosa (2008)      "Sometimes Appaloosa seems bent on exploiting the standard cliches of the western genre ...while at others it seems striving to be a modernist update full of ambiguity ..." [movie review]      Playback:stl       8/10      Arctic Son (2006)      "Calm is the prevailing mood in Arctic Son, as if director Andrew Walton wanted to reflect the experience of the Gwich'in lifestyle in his film." [movie review]      Playback:stl
