     (2008)      "A sprightly collection of Gallic short subjects that sprints from romantic froth to earnest documentation (almost) without skipping a beat." [movie review]      Film Journal International   
  
3.5/5
     (2009)      "...spry and spiky satire..." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2007)      "a film that wraps its message around a hurled brick." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
3.5/5
     (2006)      "With his modestly impressive young actors and moody lens, Cuesta finds the normal in the extreme." [movie review]      ToxicUniverse.com   
  
     (2007)      "Fortunately for all parties involved, Delpy goes beyond the mere comedy of embarrassment, though to be sure there is plenty of that as well." [movie review]      Film Journal International   
  
5/5
     (1968)      "2001 certainly is a colossal bore, unless you're on its wavelength, in which case it's one of the greatest films of all time." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
4.5/5
     (2005)      "the ultimate expression of Wong's sinuous vision and perhaps a goodbye to it" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
3.5/5
     (2006)      "if it doesn't give you at least a nightmare or two, then it's hard to imagine what exactly would frighten you" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
3/5
     (2008)      "...a meditative response to unthinkable violence." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
9/10
     (2006)      "...like Cubism in human form, woozy and kaleidoscopic." [movie review]      PopMatters   
  
     (2001)      "A lesser film might have taken a darker and more obvious route with Adam's uncanny ability to be whoever people want him to be, but About Adam plays it with a warm and knowing wink of the eye." [movie review]      Citysearch   
  
     (2009)      "A loping comedy of displacement that snaps off dozens of easy laughs without breaking a sweat..." [movie review]      PopMatters   
  
     (2009)      "Although sadly rife with gut-clenching moments as those, Afghan Star is most thrilling when depicting the show's delicately balanced effort to bring Afghans together despite their fractious ethnic and clan boundaries." [movie review]      The Hollywood Reporter   
  
4/5
     (1979)      "Narcissistic and self-indulgent to a fault, it’s also like nothing you’ve ever seen before and probably never will again." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
3/5
     (2007)      "exudes the overall uncomfortable air of watching a depraved home movie" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
     (2001)      "Tautou's sublime performance and the film's unshakable devotion to her make for a deeply satisfying experience." [movie review]      Citysearch   
  
     (2006)      "A raised-fist documentary on black voter disenfranchisement which loses some, but definitely not all, its punch by morphing into a paid ad for Cynthia McKinney." [movie review]      Film Journal International   
  
3.5/5
     (2006)      "tells you everything you need to know about how vital this music was" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
3/5

3/5
     (2003)      "Heavily (and correctly) lauded, but possibly quickly forgotten" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
3/5
     (2003)      "surprisingly relaxed" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
4/5

4.5/5
     (2004)      "...an aggressive, overwhelming piece of cinema that raises the year's cinematic G.P.A. all by itself." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
     (2000)      "The most daring Hollywood film of the year." [movie review]      Citysearch   
  
     (2008)      "Although the film is mindful of Milestone and Irvin's epics of squandered lives, its focus is tighter and less battle-charged, more Samuel Beckett than Oliver Stone." [movie review]      Film Journal International

3/5

4/5
     (2005)      "a story that's less like fiction and more like the way that families (and countries) actually age." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
2.5/4
     (2005)      "What keeps Bewitched just barely out of the summer slush pile is its sense of light-hearted fun." [movie review]      Slant Magazine   
  
4/5
     (2005)      "It all has a cumulatively lulling effect, if a nightmare could ever be described so." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
3.5/5
     (2007)      "at its center is a core of bitter outrage that will leave at least some viewers in stunned, heart-stopping dismay by the time the lights go up" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
     (2008)      "The same lack of personal distance that keeps Bell from scoring cheap shots against the anti-steroid hysterics is the same connection that powers the film's emotional take on America's cult of winning." [movie review]      Film Journal International   
  
3/5
     (2006)      "...gorgeously-shot, melancholy." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2004)      "There's something impressive about a film that manages to acknowledge the intrinsic lunacy of its concept without yet depriving the story of any of its power or immediacy." [movie review]      Film Threat   
  
     (2008)      "...fails because the source material doesn't easily lend itself to cinema, and because the filmmaker is clearly out of his depth." [movie review]      PopMatters

3/5
     (2006)      "...a placid and creepy work, with hints of Hitchcock proliferating." [movie review]      Filmcritic.com   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "Krasinski stitches these raw blasts of the subconscious with interludes that exude a pleasing, Woody Allen-esque tone, all fall colors and potent theorizing over white wine" [movie review]      Filmcritic.com
