Honest and unflinching, Daughter From Danang isn't always pleasant to watch, but it is powerful and memorable. -

The story is simple and true-to-life, and the technique is naturalistic, using nonprofessional actors, photography that emphasizes the characters' environment, and deliberate narrative pacing that mimics real-time events. -

The movie gets goofy from time to time -- as when payola arrives in a vintage "Clash of the Titans lunchbox -- but the filmmakers and cast have the style and the swagger to back it up. -

It is wonderful for what it is: a delightful, thoroughly satisfying comedy of modern manners. -

Proof that movies don’t always have to be busy to entertain and enrich, this tale of life at a bucolic Korean monastery is at once profound and simple. -

There's a genuine sense of loss when dreams go unrealized, and in these moments Dig! transcends the typical "rock movie" format and aspires to something greater: an examination of why we create and what we receive from art. -

One need not necessarily appreciate Darger's art to enjoy Yu's sympathetic, intimate, and often breathtaking journey into the workings of his mind. -

Well-considered, beautifully made, and often gripping in its narrative, the film epitomizes the best the documentary format can offer. -

Though the story is thinly conceived, Antal throws a fantastic curveball in the second act. Kontroll is a hot ticket. -

Jacquet's penguins are as absorbing and incredible as any man-made phantasmagoria you'll find in the multiplex this summer, and it's all real. -

Marrit Ingman 89
It's a magnificent film – thoughtful but not distant, aesthetically and technically sophisticated but staged with restraint and delicacy. -
-
-
Marrit Ingman 89
Substantive and imaginatively filmed but is not an off-putting art movie; rather, it's the kind of solid but accessible filmmaking that prevailed in Hollywood's golden age. -

The film is a wonderful choice for older teens and has considerable crossover appeal for adult audiences. -

Marrit Ingman 89
The film is a sure winner for arthouse audiences enamored of the new Argentine cinema, but it has crossover appeal for venturesome viewers in search of a good mystery, as well. -

This is Iranian cinema at its most accessible: a bit slow even in its 92 minutes, with more environment than story, but deeply immersive and thought-provoking, and quite often funny. -

No doubt some viewers could find fault with the slack pacing, though it's hardly inappropriate for a film that's fundamentally about emerging from frustration and stasis into a state of grace. -

Marrit Ingman 78
A pleasant, often beautiful, and surprisingly light-hearted film that affirms the human traits of resilience and intelligence while clearly denouncing the bellicose tendencies of nations and factions. -

Marrit Ingman 78
The film is sufficiently methodical and well-researched to walk the walk behind its controversial premise. More to the point, it's terribly involving, intriguing enough to hook documentary-shy viewers. -

Ill-suited to casual viewing. But its challenges are worthwhile, and the gifted Gleize is one to watch. -

This is joyful filmmaking, imbued with an infectious, giddy enthusiasm. -

If the film had allowed them to fall in love in real time, instead of to the drumbeat of history, their relationship would seem immeasurably more nuanced. -

More than worthy viewing. What it lacks at times in elegance it possesses in intensity and feeling. -
