3/4
     (1938)      "An entertaining 100 minutes that's well worth the price of admission, even if it's flawed in several respects." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
69/100
     (2009)      "Afghan Star provides us with an up-close peek at the more progressive side of war-torn Afghanistan." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
3/4
     (2002)      "Afghan Stories is a rewarding and almost essential look at the other side of terrorism: it's not just the United States that feels the pain." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
73/100
     (1936)      "After the Thin Man boasts two things that the original lacks; a much more engaging caper, and a first-rate performance by a shockingly young Jimmy Stewart." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
4/4
     (1979)      "In an era where the horror genre has faded into a laughable mix of teen slashers and formulaic storylines, Alien provides a welcome nostalgic dose of authentic terror." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
2.5/4
     (1992)      "Manages to get the job done if you temper your expectation to a modest level." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
4/4
     (1986)      "Aliens never strives to be as accomplished as the original, but it's wit and turbo-charged battles make it a wild and electric ride, one with the best replay value of the franchise." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
100/100
     (1966)      "One of cinema's greatest achievements." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
85/100
     (2004)      "A dazzling autobiographical blend of Almodovar's career, childhood, and adoration & admiration for the cinema." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
3/4
     (2003)      "A word of advice: see Bad Santa, but see it once without checking your movie listings twice." [movie review]      eCinemaCenter.com   
  
66/100
     (1983)      "A good movie that could have been truly great" [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
4/4
     (1964)      "An exhilarating experience." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
67/100
     (2007)      "A sweet little film about the universality of loneliness, The Band's Visit succeeds admirably whenever it doesn't attempt to exceed its modest scope." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
4/4
     (1975)      "Glimpses of Barry's humanity peek through during his moments with Brian, and explode in Kubrick's most wrenching moment near the film's conclusion." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
54/100
     (2005)      "So much is rich with ingenuity and daring that its constant missteps are exceptionally glaring." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
73/100
     (2005)      "With 2005's The Beat That my Heart Skipped joining Read my Lips, Jacques Audiard is asserting himself as a powerhouse in the new wave of French directors." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
97/100
     (1995)      "Linklater hasn't just crafted a detached portrait of a unique couple: he's painting a masterful examination of human nature, of that relationship we all want, but too often sadly see slip away." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
97/100
     (2004)      "The final 25 minutes of Before Sunset, starting with excruciatingly honest admissions from both parties in a car backseat, are the best filmmaking I've ever seen." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
57/100
     (2008)      "Though somewhat repetitive and clunky, Chris Bell's Bigger Stronger Faster deserves credit for presenting a fairly evenhanded examination of steroids & their threat to the integrity of the country's sports industry." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
65/100
     (2006)      "Frequently uproarious and occasionally side-splitting%u2026but it's very hit-or-miss, prone to stretches of unnecessary crudeness and flat one-liners." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
71/100
     (2004)      "A remarkably honest look at Calcutta's Red Light district." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
75/100
     (2005)      "A rich love poem with boundless soul, Brokeback Mountain is another wonderful gem to be placed atop Ang Lee's filmic mantle." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
62/100
     (2005)      "Insightful, entertaining, and a worthy addition to the filmography of one of America's more interesting modern directors." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
65/100
     (1965)      "A solid-but-frustratingly-tantalizing experience." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
58/100
     (2004)      "Though fairly pedestrian by cinematic standards, Joseph Mealey's Bush's Brain is a workmanlike portrayal of the astonishing influence Karl Rove holds in Republican politics." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
58/100
     (2009)      "Still a noteworthy achievement, but it's hard to keep from being a bit disappointed that Moore hasn't used the seriousness of the times to craft an ever-so-slightly more balanced documentary." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
3/4
     (2002)      "Though the themes aren't exactly groundbreaking, they're executed skillfully enough to make the movie well worth seeing - for fans of the genre, at any rate." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
65/100
     (1966)      "An engaging, dry satire on the the pitfalls of laziness while doubling as a character study." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
70/100
     (2008)      "Armed to the teeth with an ingenious marketing campaign that sent internet geeks scrambling to their keyboards months ago, the ambitious Cloverfield is only moderately successful as a monster movie, but extremely provocative in many other ways." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
92/100
     (2004)      "Cruise turns in perhaps his best performance, flashing his trademark smile just once behind his raggedy, greying stubble." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
98/100
     (1985)      "One of the greatest films ever made, Elem Klimov's anti-war masterpiece is ironically named, as those with weak stomachs may want to steer clear." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
A
     (1972)      "Cries and Whispers is an unforgettable experience, one that causes the viewer to frequently wince in emotional pain." [movie review]      Flipside Movie Emporium   
  
4/4
     (1999)      "Ang Lee's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon mixes In the Mood for Love's unobtainable romance with Dancer in the Dark's selfless-to-the-end philosophy." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
67/100
     (1985)      "The most flawed in the series, but also the most ambitious." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
59/100
     (2006)      "The film is superbly shot, and the rapid-fire editing and shaky camera fit the constant flux that the main characters find themselves in time and again." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
3/4
     (2007)      "The repetitive nature of the screenplay drags a potentially great 80 minute picture way down." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
4/4
     (1953)      "The tracking shots effortlessly glide down corridors, into rooms, through gardens. They particularly shine during two dancing scenes, where the smooth movements of the partners are echoed by the graceful camera capturing every move in perfect sync." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
4/4
     (1994)      ""Strangely compelling and inspiring..."" [movie review]      eCinemaCenter.com   
  
59/100
     (2007)      "A sweeping portrait of Antarctica's barren emptiness tinged with pockets of hidden, quirky beauty." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
95/100
     (1962)      "A blistering attack on social classes and conventions, The Exterminating Angel may be the best in a long line of Buñuel masterpieces." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
61/00
     (1972)      "Fat City is most notable for terrific performances all around, especially those of Stacy Keach, Susan Tyrell, and a baby-faced Jeff Bridges." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
78/100
     (2004)      "...2004's most captivating picture, and certainly my biggest cinematic surprise to date this year..." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
85/100
     (1994)      "Unlike John Singleton's by-the-numbers Boyz n the Hood, Boaz Yakin's Fresh doesn't rely on skeletal portrayals of life in the ghetto, or moralistic messages." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
53/100
          "Certainly a niche film, GamerZ is unlikely to appeal to anyone who hasn't had some form of positive experience with geeky pastimes such as Dungeons & Dragons." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
3/4
     (2004)      "As an avid hater of reality television, the intelligence behind James Ronald Whitney's Games People Play was quite a surprise." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
71/100
     (2008)      "An inspired work, rich with clever satire and sly satiric references to our current political landscape." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
4/4
     (1947)      "There's rarely a shot that doesn't portray the utter hopelesness of Edmund's situation, and it makes his eventual fate feel almost inevitable, if no less wrenching as a result." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
58/100
     (2009)      "An ambitious, sprawling picture about the epic swirl of Italy's criminal underbelly." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
57/100
     (2009)      "The humane portrayals make it worthwhile, if unspectacular, viewing." [movie review]      Film and Felt   
  
97/100
     (1988)      "Ultimately, the picture's respect for Seito and Setsuko's ability to fend for themselves results in a far more powerful piece of cinema than if they'd been portrayed as the typical scared kid." [movie review]      Film and Felt
