[movie review]      Apollo Guide       4/4      Macbeth (1971)      "Shakespeare wrote “the play’s the thing,” but it makes an argument that the setting and direction can play just as important a role in dramatizing an adaptation." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       2/4      The Magdalene Sisters (2003)      "We never doubt where Mullan's polemical biases lie, [but] such simplifications rob the movie of much of its dramatic effect." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       37/100      The Magic Flute (2006)      "Kenneth Branagh's adaptation of Mozart's opera The Magic Flute comes on strong ... maybe too strong..." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       4/4      Magnolia (1999)      "P.T. Anderson’s Magnolia is probably my favorite film of the 1990’s." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       3.5/4      Maid in Manhattan (2002)      "As a romantic comedy it stands out amongst its peers. The critical attacks hurled on it, like those on its star, seem mostly unwarranted." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       60/100      Mamma Mia! (2008)      "It's the very vague nature of these pop songs that universalizes them and makes them worth celebrating in this fashion." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       64/100      Mammoth (2009)      "It's an easy movie to snipe at, but its quest for authenticity, even in its most affluent characters, is honorable." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       4/4      The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956)      "It's hugely entertaining and exceptionally involving." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       3.5/4      The Man Who Wasn't There (2001)      "It's one of the Coens' most successful, emotionally charged works." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       3/4      The Man Without a Past (2003)      "The cavalier attitude of the movie seems utterly unconcerned with whether or not the audience picks up on any of the jokes, all of which are delivered with an unaffected, deadpan style." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       3/4      A Map of the World (1999)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       76/100      Margot at the Wedding (2007)      "In this day and age, its stripped down incisiveness is nearly unfathomable." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       4/4      Marie Antoinette (2006)      "Marie Antoinette creates biography as much through its soundtrack, attitudes and its close-ups as it does through its action and dialogue." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       3.5/4      Married to the Mob (1988)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       79/100      A Married Woman (1964)      "...one of Godard's most approachable, conventionally plotted movies. It merges the director's interest in social constructs with a curiosity about individual emotions often obscured in his work." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       3/4      Martha...Martha (2002)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       80/100      Martyrs (2008)      "Perhaps more than any other horror film, Martyrs demonstrates the range of the genre's capabilities to find ways to excite, provoke, and disturb us." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       67/100      Mary (2008)      "A serious-minded film about the confusion and anxiety that mark a true inquisition into one's faith." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       2/4      Maryam (2002)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       74/100      Masters of Horror - John Carpenter: Cigarette Burns (2005)      "Carpenter, a true master of horror, renders this tale with far more atmosphere than other directors have managed during the course of the television series." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       77/100      Medium Cool (1969)      "Whatever its weaknesses, they are easy to forgive since Medium Cool represents a pioneering slice of cinematic history." [movie review]      Apollo Guide       59/100      Memories of Murder (2003)      "Memories of Murder offers a ruminative and affecting approach to a genre not known for its emotional content." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       1/4      Men in Black II (2002)      "As bad a film as I've seen all year" [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       70/100      Men on the Mountain (1942)      "By exhibiting a great deal of sympathy and a considerable amount of cinematic skill, Szots relays the mores and customs of the people he observes." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       4/4      The Merchant of Four Seasons (1972)      "[Fassbinder] places the audience where they can be at once sympathetic to the characters' plights yet are able to be analytical when considering their actions." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       3/4      Merci Pour le Chocolat (2002)      "Claude Chabrol has here a thriller without thrills, but that's okay." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       63/100      Metallica: Some Kind of Monster (2004)      "Because of its unexpected level of intimacy, it will likely hold the interest of even those with no interest in heavy metal bands." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       4/4      Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil (1997)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       3.5/4      Mikey and Nicky (1976)      "Mikey and Nicky finds two of the most inventive American actors of their generation riffing off of each other to provide a relatively thorough series of observations about the difficulties of male friendship." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       31/100      Millennium Actress (2003)      "[It] would deserve credit for being more thematically ambitious than the average animated film if it incorporated those themes with any aplomb." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       4/4      Millennium Mambo (2003)      "Unlike most coming of age films, it is wise enough to realize that there isn’t some magical epiphany in which a character instantly moves from childhood to adulthood." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       1.5/4      Minority Report (2002)      "Minority Report aspires to more than mere mindlessness, but fails miserably, and as a result crystallizes nearly everything that I dislike about Spielberg's films." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       4/4      The Mirror (1975)      "This is the sort of film that starts you off without a net and leaves you to find your own footing." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       3/4      The Missing (2003)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       4/4      Mississippi Mermaid (1969)      "Eminently watchable." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       56/100      Mogari no Mori (2007)      "Ultimately, The Mourning Forest is not so much flawed as it is unable to create a very powerful impression." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       4/4      A Moment of Innocence (1996)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       2/4      Monday Morning (2002)      "This is a film about the irksome, tiresome nature of complacency that remains utterly satisfied to remain the same throughout. Even as the hero of the story rediscovers his passion in life, the mood remains oddly detached." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       3/4      Monster's Ball (2001)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       2/4      Monsters, Inc. (2001)      "I don't mind flights of fancy in a film, but I do like a consistent tone. This film fails to deliver one." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       68/100      Moolaade (2004)      "Inspiring, primal, confrontational, funny, and direct, Moolaade lives up to the hype." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       48/100      Moon (2009)      "Jones is a methodical filmmaker, and he conveys his plot without mucking it up too terribly, but he's also dull." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       1.5/4      Moonlight Mile (2002)      "Since Silberling withholds so much information in [it], he doesn’t come any closer to the truth than if he had set hankies in motion with the most melodramatic scenario possible. The film becomes a manipulation of a different, more insidious sort." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       3/4      Morvern Callar (2002)      "Lynne Ramsey's follow-up to her terrific debut feature Ratcatcher, holds up remarkably well in comparison, even if it doesn't quite surpass its predecessor." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       3/4      The Most Dangerous Game (1932)      "A mindless action movie, but there’s nothing inherently wrong with that." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       2.5/4      Mother and Son (1997)      "Distilled almost to the point of nothingness." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       64/100      Mother of Tears (2008)      "The director employs his entire bag of tricks to keep the audience on the edge of their seats, from shock cuts and loud chords on the soundtrack to performances that devour the scenery." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       2.5/4      The Mothman Prophecies (2002)      "Its few effective sequences (including an impressive ending set pieces) are outweighed by the picture’s flaws." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com       4/4      Moulin Rouge (2001)      "The film isn't so much a reinvention of the musical genre as a reassertion of it." [movie review]      MovieMartyr.com
