3/5
     (2009)      "Cage is not quite Aguirre or Fitzcarraldo in the Big Easy. But his performance hits all the right mythopoetic beats, rising above the thin script and late-night-cable aesthetic." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
3/5
     (2009)      "At last, Anderson has made a film that is nothing but a succession of autumn-gold shoebox dioramas." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
1/5
     (2009)      "Bobby and Kate are puppets on strings, both pulled roundabout through McGehee-Siegel’s phony proving ground toward a howler of a final exchange." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
          "The film slowly loses the sobering toughness of its initial inquiry, and finally comes off as bloodline-biased hagiography." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "Given the months-long hype, what’s most bewildering about Sundance sensation Precious is its overall shrug-worthiness." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "Wiseman’s films are as much living organisms as they are subjective portraits." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "The biggest surprise of Carol is that this frustrating auteur, so often in thrall to his digital palette, here uses it to freshly illuminate a time-honored text." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "When the Karo syrup finally hits the fan, the film loses its footing some, but only because no concrete explanations could possibly do justice to West’s expert buildup." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
1/5
     (2009)      "Duffy orchestrates the resulting carnage like an inebriate spinning fourth-rate Peckinpah tales." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "Told in final-flight flashback (naturally) with cumulus cloud scene wipes (of course!), Earhart’s life is reduced to a series of solemnized wide-screen tableaux populated by locale-specific extras acting as starstruck filler." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
5/5
     (2009)      "Which of the protagonist’s interactions are real and which are artist’s fancy? Hong never lets on, preferring to set character and audience adrift within his motion-picture Rorschach test." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "There’s an incessant disconnect between what we hear and what we see; the true soulfulness of Sendak’s parable never emerges." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
3/5
     (2009)      "As the theme song declares, this cat is dy-no-mite!" [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
1/5
     (2009)      "It’s too easy to say that Peter Billingsley shot his eye out with this inept comic trifle, but…well, he shot his eye out." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
3/5
     (2009)      "Alix knows how to frame a shot to emphasize his character’s ever-shifting emotional states, but there’s something missing, an elemental sense of space that would better complement the heroine’s figure-in-a-landscape distress." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "It doesn’t matter if Rock is in a Harlem barbershop or an Indian hair-weave factory -- there’s always a punch line or a snooty eye-roll to be had." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "Lone Scherfig directs it all as if it were a breezy lark, so a third-act tonal shift makes for an incongruous, excessively moralistic fit with everything that’s preceded." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
3/5
     (2009)      "Visual Acoustics goes out of its way to remain as kindly and pleasing as Shulman himself." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
1/5
     (2009)      "As the credit “Produced by Paul W.S. Anderson” attests, this is hackwork of the highest order, lacking in all poetry and barely comprehensible aurally or visually." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "It makes sense that, within his own act of remembrance, Ferrara would include a hotel tenant’s home-movie footage of the September 11 attacks. The underlying message, in both cases, is the same: Never forget." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
3/5
     (2009)      "There are enough hoary soap-operatic plottings for a thousand Gossip Girls (emotionally distant parents, almost-rapes, suicide attempts), yet Tancharoen individualizes each crisis so that no one character comes off as a mock-universal surrogate." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "Surrogates is an A-list blockbuster that would fit, damn proudly, on the lower half of a double bill." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "Owen brings insight and honesty to this otherwise by-the-numbers adaptation of Simon Carr’s memoir, which director Scott Hicks bathes in shimmering golden tones as if the characters lived at the end of the rainbow." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "Kate Beckinsale is about as convincing a U.S. Marshal as Joan Crawford is a loving mother." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "Writer-director Jane Campion approaches the tale with an artiste’s respectful solemnity, but it too often comes off like Twilight transplanted across oceans and centuries." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "The Informant! is one of [Soderbergh's] ugliest works, photographed on the RED digital camera system in such a way that depth of field is meaninglessly flattened into backlit brown mush." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
3/5
     (2009)      "Crank’s Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor direct with their usual flashy brio, and basso profundo Keith David has a sublime cameo as a cop indignant at the thought of a pistachio peanut butter sandwich." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "This Disney-sanctioned documentary on Papa Walt and company’s 1941 visit to South America is a dull, dry bit of mythmaking." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
3/5
    
9
(2009)
     "Save the voice work, which is celebrity-heavy and mostly undistinguished, 9 is a marvel to take in, especially the individual character designs." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
5/5
     (2009)      "Objects have any number of unique symbolic attributes, but their meanings become increasingly and intriguingly malleable through Alonso’s patient, long-take purview." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
3/5
     (2009)      "Zombie remains committed to showing how violence lingers with, and perverts, all who are touched by it, yet his carnivalesque approach often undercuts his very real empathy." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
3/5
     (2009)      "Vogue VIP Anna Wintour slinks through this highly entertaining vérité documentary like a stoic, sunglasses-bedecked fetish doll." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "Lee and Schamus make history blandly palatable; in the process, they rob the times and the people they’re portraying of their complications." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
1/5
     (2009)      "It doesn’t matter how much garrulous delusion the subjects spout. [Director] Pray buys it wholesale and propagates the myth that there’s something to respect about getting inside people’s heads and rewiring them into mass-consumptive lemmings." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "The effort is certainly more appreciable than the execution." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
5/5
     (2009)      "An astounding portrait of a person entirely out of sync with her own existence." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "Detractors and proponents alike will see what they want to see in this two-and-a-half-hour World War II fable, which hits all the beats of a retribution-laden genre piece without ever entirely satiating character or audience bloodlust." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "The film is a trying yet worthwhile sit, not only for the information it relates, but for the sensations it elicits." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "The title of the film promises something revolutionary, but all we get, aesthetically and thematically, are second-gen hand-me-downs." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "Import Export demands we contemplate the horror and the beauty of existence in equal measure." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "It’s hogwash of the highest order, a romanticized take on disability that sees it both as God-gifted higher calling and seductive precoital bling." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
3/5
     (2009)      "No one views the world like Roy Andersson does. That fact alone is enough to recommend the Swedish director’s latest collection of interconnected, often single-take vignettes." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
5/5
     (2009)      "It’s an entirely new world that we’re left in -- a place where the rules of the movie we’ve just experienced no longer apply." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
5/5
     (1950)      "The genre trappings of this noir masterpiece -- which details the short-lived relationship between live-wire screenwriter Dixon Steele (Bogart) and his goldilocked muse Laurel Gray (Grahame) -- don’t matter a whit." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
3/5
     (1980)      "At worst, the film is an empty vessel that places blind trust in affected stillness and symmetry... the movie quite often switches on a dime to more deep and meaningful textures." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "Radcliffe, in particular, comes off bored and distant, more hitting the marks than baring the soul." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "This live-action adaptation of Hiroyuki Kitakubo’s popular anime one-off from 2000 appears to have been made by a company of finches tweeting, 'Cheap…cheap.'" [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
3/5
     (1963)      "For all its annoyances -- and there are many -- the film somehow sears its way into the mind’s eye." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
4/5
     (2009)      "It might sound damning to say that the film resembles a bullet-riddled carcass just barely clinging to life, but it’s exactly this ephemeral sensation, which Mann sustains for the entire two hours plus, that distinguishes Public Enemies." [movie review]      Time Out New York   
  
2/5
     (2009)      "It’s a big ol’ wallow in unpleasantness, a film that relies on simplistically patriarchal antagonists and vague, wet-willie cries for intervention." [movie review]      Time Out New York
