Somehow, it all works -- even if Miller relies on a plot that meanders a bit and loses some of its luster. -

There is no rage here or Michael Moore-like bluster. Instead, Deadline is a straightforward, compassionate look at a volatile subject. -

For those who've never before heard fado, Fados will be a revelation - a window into a music that (like blues music) can be poetic, heartbreaking, melodramatic and redemptive, all at the same time. -

An unabashed paean to Kerry's character at a time in the presidential election when Kerry's character is being questioned. It's also a riveting film. -

Sweet, funny, sad and profound -- the sort of film that becomes more remarkable when you realize it's based on someone's real life. -

A powerful new documentary that addresses the issue of "hypocritical" male politicians. -

These aren't the marching band songs of your father's or mother's generation but a musical expression that is modern and exciting to watch. -

The movie is an ideal blend of character study, deceptively simple plot twists, inspired acting, and travelogue. -

A silly, snarling romp -- a fun (if you're in the mood for it), sometimes scary look at the life of a socially awkward man whose best friend is a white rodent he names Socrates. -

Instead of a balanced film that explains the zeitgeist that is the X Games, we get a cinematic postcard that's superficial and unrealized. -
