A funny and madly arresting new documentary. -

Up in the Air is light and dark, hilarious and tragic, romantic and real. It's everything that Hollywood has forgotten how to do; we're blessed that Jason Reitman has remembered -

The 3-D visuals envelop you, majestically, and that effect fuses with the band's surround-sound rapture to create a full-scale sensory high. U2 3D makes you feel stoned on movies. -

It would be hard to imagine a movie about drugs, depravity, and all-around bad behavior more electrifying than Trainspotting. -

It's a lesson in character to hear directors from David Lynch (digital believer) to Christopher Nolan (celluloid diehard) spout off.- Posted Aug 29, 2012

Venus has a swank pedigree, but in this case that doesn't mean it's much more than a quaint machine to elicit tears and awards. -

A true-life adventure that turns into a one-man disaster movie - and the darker it gets, the more enthralling it becomes.- Posted Oct 27, 2010

Tell No One's plot thickens in about five ways at once, but they're all connected. The issue of how is a riddle that does more than tease --gives you an itch you won't want to stop scratching. -

The movie is a bumpy road of twists that leads to a revelation that has the shock and force of Greek tragedy.- Posted Apr 19, 2011

A deeply straightforward yet beautifully crafted documentary. -

Dark and giddy at the same time, Leaving Las Vegas takes us into dreamy, intoxicated places that no movie about an alcoholic has gone before. -

Ballard connects you to the beauteous inner calm of the wild, even if audiences today are looking for a lot less calm. -

The film's style is so ''objective'' it's a bit subdued, yet this is a sports drama of total originality, as well as the most authentic inside view of the immigrant experience the movies have given us in quite a while. -

If Loach had given full voice to each side of this division, he could have made a great film -- maybe THE great film -- about the Irish struggle. -

Keira Knightley, in a witty, vibrant, altogether superb performance, plays Lizzie's sparky, questing nature as a matter of the deepest personal sacrifice. -

Here, in paranoid, bad acid trip form, is the real birth of girl power. -

The School of Rock was made by gifted veterans of the American indie scene, but it's still the most unlikely great movie of the year. -

Freshly transplanted from the stage, is a thrilling ode to the intertwined glories of sex, showmanship, and lying: what the film calls ''the old razzle-dazzle.'' -

It's a hilarious, and unexpectedly moving, documentary about the greatest metal band you've probably never heard of. -

The Trip looks like a lark - and is - yet there's a sneaky resonance to the way it celebrates what acting means to these two rogue cutups.- Posted Jun 8, 2011

Shot in spooky gradations of silver and shadow, The Prisoner of Azkaban is the first movie in the series with fear and wonder in its bones, and genuine fun, too. -

It's better than good; it's such a crackling and mature and accomplished movie that it just about restores your faith. -

It is also glib, shallow, and monotonous, a movie that spends so much time sanctifying its hero that, despite his "innocence," he ends up seeming about as vulnerable as Superman. -

If I respect Downfall more than I was enthralled by it, that's because its portayal stops short of revelation. Once you witness Hitler's denial, the film has little more to say about him. -

If random arty blood thrills are your cup of fear, perhaps you'll enjoy Let the Right One In, a Swedish head-scratcher that has a few creepy images but very little holding them together. -

Marley was directed by the gifted Kevin Macdonald (The Last King of Scotland), who shows off his chops not by doing anything dazzling - the film is documentary prose, not poetry - but by treating Marley as a man of depth and nuance, of inner light and shadow.- Posted Apr 14, 2012
