V For Vendetta
(2005)
"An unbearably talkative affair with virtually nothing sane to say."
[movie review]
Lessons of Darkness
2.5/4
Vacancy
(2007)
"Antal's array of sleek cinematographic arrangements succinctly link his villains to his viewers as likeminded voyeurs turned on by scenes of torture and mayhem."
[movie review]
Slant Magazine
2/4
Vajra Sky Over Tibet
(2006)
"[A] reverential act of bearing witness to a culture and religion being systematically erased..."
[movie review]
Slant Magazine
1.5/4
Valiant
(2005)
"The slapdash construction and narrative inconsistencies, however, aren't nearly as damaging to this aerial adventure as the general mediocrity of its animation."
[movie review]
Slant Magazine
1.5/4
Valkyrie
(2008)
"Incongruous vocal intonations aren't even the most significant problem plaguing Bryan Singer's film."
[movie review]
Slant Magazine
.5/4
Valse Sentimentale
(2007)
"Director Voulgaris puts considerable effort into making
Valse Sentimentale
as aesthetically hideous as possible."
[movie review]
Slant Magazine
1/4
Van Helsing
(2004)
"Perhaps the loudest summer film of all time,
Van Helsing
's apt to provide more migraines than nightmares."

Vantage Point
(2008)
"A monument to cinematic suckiness."
[movie review]
Lessons of Darkness
2.5/4
Vegas: Based on a True Story
(2008)
"The film's scenario unavoidably devolves into a treatise that, though timely, feels a tad too on the nose."
[movie review]
Slant Magazine
C-
Venom
(2005)
"Never strays from the mainstream slasher genre's long-decayed bylaws."
[movie review]
Lessons of Darkness
C+
Venus
(2006)
"If Roger Michell's film never quite musters the energy to be more than a placid hybrid of
Nobody's Fool
and
Lolita
, it nonetheless provides a satisfactory showcase for Peter O'Toole."
[movie review]
Lessons of Darkness
B+
Vera Drake
(2004)
"Puts a tender human face on this explosive subject."
[movie review]
Lessons of Darkness
2/4
Veronica Guerin
(2003)
"The film’s laughably hokey and naïve coda leads us to believe that, as a result of Guerin’s efforts, drugs were forever banished from Dublin."
[movie review]

Versus
(2000)
"[Proves] the old adage about less being more."
[movie review]
Lessons of Darkness
1.5/4
A Very Long Engagement
(2004)
"Enjoying the film depends on how much one can stand visionary carnival barker Jean-Pierre Jeunet’s brand of impatiently imaginative, aggressively artificial filmmaking."
[movie review]
Slant Magazine
C
Vicky Cristina Barcelona
(2008)
"Leave it to Woody Allen to muck up a threesome involving Scarlett Johansson and Penelope Cruz."
[movie review]
Lessons of Darkness
F
The Village
(2004)
"It’s hard to care about situations that have been designed only to obscure the ultimate twist."
[movie review]
Lessons of Darkness
C+
The Visitor
(2008)
"A character study drowning in liberal guilt."
[movie review]
Lessons of Darkness

Visitor Q
