[movie review]      DVDTalk.com            4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days (2008)      "Strange to long for the humorous undercurrents of the no less despondent Lazarescu and Bucharest, but perhaps making sense of the red specter requires just such a penetrating mix of solemnity and absurdity." [movie review]      The House Next Door            The Air I Breathe (2007)      "Godliness, so The Air I Breathe finally tells us, is all about the Benjamins." [movie review]      The House Next Door            The American Soldier (1970)      "As Billy Wilder turned a crumbling Berlin into a slapstick, satirical playground in One, Two, Three, so Fassbinder offers up The American Soldier's Munich as a monochrome city of sadness." [movie review]      The House Next Door            The Baron of Arizona (1950)      "The Baron of Arizona (1950) is all thumbs, as much a forgery as the one perpetrated by its protagonist James Addison Reavis (Vincent Price)." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Battle For Haditha (2007)      "Character psychology is as specious as in the Schwarzenegger canon." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Before I Forget (2008)      "[Jacques] Nolot writes, directs, and stars as Pierre Pruez, an HIV-positive bottom boy-no-longer who navigates his ruined life and beauty with aplomb."

[movie review]      The House Next Door            Black Book (2007)      "One longs for Nomi Malone to enliven the proceedings with her ketchup bottle of doom." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Black Sheep (2007)      "Black Sheep takes one of nature's most decidedly non-threatening creatures and arms 'em, deliriously and deliciously, with ravenous, razor-edged teeth." [movie review]      The House Next Door            California Dreamin' (2009)      "What surprises and delights is how complete the work feels, finished in every way aesthetically and thematically, any longueurs or asides entirely part of Nemescu's indelible emotional tapestry." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Chris & Don: A Love Story (2007)      "A love unique in every respect -- nothing to sniff at and forever to be treasured." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Chui-si Zao-wu Ai-ge (2005)      "A literalist's portrait of apocalypse." [movie review]      The House Next Door            The Darjeeling Limited (2007)      "A highly flawed personal vision, containing what the Screenwriter 101's among us would deem various and sundry "third act problems."" [movie review]      The House Next Door            The Dark Knight (2008)      "Now you see it, now you don't." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Dark Matter (2008)      "Meryl Streep guest stars on a special episode of Sunrise Earth, doing Method Tai Chi while heavenly chorines, chanting in Hollywood Sanskrit, bemoan the eternal tragedy of man." [movie review]      The House Next Door            The Diving Bell and the Butterfly (2007)      "The Sea Inside by way of Lady in the Lake." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Doubt (2008)      "[The play is] a shallow work easily interpreted, and Shanley's own film version is no different in the low bar it aims for and ultimately attains." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Eat, For This Is My Body (2008)      "A true, unadulterated trip into a most unique subconscious." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007)      "An extended game of 16th-century Barbie." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Exterminating Angels (2007)      "The beauties of Brisseau's movies lie in their defiantly messy imperfections: pretty poison all the way." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Face to Face (1976)      "Cries out for Madeline Kahn to step in, cigarette in hand, and inquire, "Phallic-un zymbol?"" [movie review]      The House Next Door            Faithless (2001)      "This could be a regretful remembrance of things past on the part of "Bergman" or it could be a pure fiction torn from the ether." [movie review]      The House Next Door            The First Films of Samuel Fuller (1949)      "Tempting as it is to describe Samuel Fuller as the cinema's brute poet, the three films included on "The First Films of Samuel Fuller" encourage a more multifaceted reading."

[movie review]      The House Next Door            I Shot Jesse James (1949)      "Fuller goes deeper into his protagonist's tortured psyche, uncovering a sublimated sense of love that only finds expression as climax to his death rattle." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)      "Whichever way we go, we have to always, always be looking." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989)      "Now only twilight and sunset. Illumination fades; the self annihilates in silhouette. And all (father, son, and spirit) is one." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Inland Empire (2006)      "The film is a detailed analysis of Nikki's creative process, of her struggle towards that transcendent point where her art... only connects."

[movie review]      The House Next Door            Un Mundo Maravilloso (2008)      "Estrada's most incendiary proposition: that God is, at heart, a hoi polloi construct, a buffer and security blanket that damagingly keeps the world's many harsh realities at bay." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Munyurangabo (2009)      "For a while, the film concerns itself with the everyday, so much so that the thread of revenge ... seems to be buried under the mere fact of eking out a living." [movie review]      The House Next Door            The New World (2005)      "If I think I'm mostly going to keep coming back to [the 172-minute] cut (and I do hope, someday soon, for a Mr. Arkadin-like 3-cuts comparative DVD set) it's because it feels most fully realized." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Quei Loro Incontri (2006)      "Standing on the outside looking in, I discern something quite meaningful in the visual/structural rigor of this adaptation of mock-classical dialogues by Cesare Pavese." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Redacted (2007)      "So much blood spilled over so little." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Savage Grace (2008)      "When [Moore] embarrasses her son by forcing him to read a passage from de Sade's Justine (introduction by Georges Bataille!), ... it's a potent familial cruelty to place alongside the best of Davis and Crawford." [movie review]      The House Next Door            The Savages (2007)      "How unfortunate the film with none." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Schindler's Houses (2007)      "Emigholz's rigorous aural/visual cataloging of Schindler's efforts uncover the souls of these structures, and it's a sight to see." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Shame (1968)      ""What a wonder is a gun," opined one-time Bergman adapter Stephen Sondheim." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Special (2008)      "Take[s] a page from the cartoonist Bill Watterson, who noted of the tiger protagonist in his great Calvin & Hobbes, 'The nature of [the character's] reality doesn't interest me, and each story goes out of its way to avoid resolving the issue.'" [movie review]      The House Next Door            The Steel Helmet (1951)      "The Steel Helmet (1951) is a fever dream of the Korean War, entirely possessed of its own unique, inimitable rhythms." [movie review]      The House Next Door            Taste of Cherry (1997)      "Taste of Cherry might be Kiarostami's most difficult film." [movie review]      The House Next Door
