Charles Bukowski would have loved this foul-mouthed, fiery, reckless woman. Against all odds and common sense, you will, too. -

Most prison movies are about escape or survival. A Prophet (Un Prophete) is about the creation of a consciousness. This one, too, could have been called “An Education.” -

The biggest compliment you can pay the much-anticipated film adaptation of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is that you can't imagine Stieg Larsson's corker of a story ever having existed in book form. -

Rene Rodriguez 88
A dreamy, passionate ode to freedom -- of thought, of expression, of every person's innate right to simply be. -

Brings the viewer up close and personal with the face of evil. -

Without a hint of sanctimony, it is a love story as much about soul as heart. -

The summer movie season has barely begun, and already we have its first big surprise. -

Rene Rodriguez 88
In a film overstuffed with tragedy, the most painful one might be the gradual transformation of Fernando's moral and intellectual indignation into a weary, cynical detachment. -

Rene Rodriguez 88
The most compelling -- and horrifying -- portion of the film, which interweaves archival footage and stylish graphics with the interview segments, centers on the firebombing of Japan during World War II. -

Leaves you in a state of stunned, exhilarated awe, both for what it shows and how it shows it. -

It's a small victory, but Punch-Drunk Love knows how to reap epic delight from the most precious of details. -

The results, for the most part, aren't pretty. The newly expanded Balseros, which adds an hour of footage to the previous film, is an even more compelling, if grimmer, work than the original. -

Rene Rodriguez 88
A big, bold movie that gets at undeniable truths about the way no one, no matter how powerful, is immune from manipulation. -

There's nothing in the utterly enchanting Raising Victor Vargas you haven't seen before; you'd just be hard-pressed to name another movie that did it as well. -

The movie isn't just hilarious: It's witty and inventive, too, and in hindsight, it isn't even all that dumb. -

Rene Rodriguez 88
A lot of ground for one film to cover, but this smart, absorbing movie, which has been sharply edited by Felipe Lacerda, never feels like it's spreading itself too thin. -

The rapturous power of music has rarely been captured as purely and joyously as it is in Calle 54. -

The moral of Irreversible -- time destroys everything -- isn't nearly as profound as writer-director Gaspar Noé seems to think it is, which is why some critics have already dismissed the movie as the facile, misogynistic posturings of a provocateur. -

Rene Rodriguez 88
Unabashedly frank in its depiction of sex -- too frank, probably, for more discreet viewers -- but it's never exploitive or seedy. -

This playful, immensely entertaining movie knows that art is in the eye of the beholder. -

American Splendor reminds you that sometimes, simply getting out of bed each morning can be the most heroic of acts. -

It feels wholly artificial, and your eyes never tire of drinking it all in. -

Rene Rodriguez 88
One of the most rewarding and engaging movies of the year. Don't miss it. -

Rene Rodriguez 88
An overwhelmingly tactile experience. Scott brings you so close into the action, the grit and smoke and blood seem to spill off the screen and into your head. -

Rene Rodriguez 88
A joyous, amazingly detailed paean to imagination and personal expression that dares -- and succeeds -- to illustrate one of the most mysterious enigmas of all: the creative process. -

Rene Rodriguez 88
A remarkable movie that merits a place alongside "The Executioner's Song" and "In Cold Blood" as an unforgettable depiction of tragedy in the heartland. -
