Beautifully observed, and beautifully acted by the novice thespian Polanco (culled from a New York City public school), Chop Shop is at once a heartbreaker and a story of hope and the American Dream. -

A tale of horror, heroism, unimaginable physical challenges, and, yes, cannibalism, Stranded offers the kind of real-life drama that can't help but bring up notions of God, fate, and nature's imposing will. -

Wendy and Lucy is modest, minimalist. But it nonetheless reverberates like a sonic boom. -

If Malik doesn't remind you of Al Pacino's Michael Corleone on his journey from innocence to corruption in "The Godfather" saga, well . . . he should. A Prophet is similarly, startlingly momentous. -

One of the finest pieces of screen acting in the career of Juliette Binoche -- the actress playing the actress in this extraordinary film. -

A bracing, unblinking work that serves as a painful elegy and sobering cautionary tale. -

With its feverish, percussive soundtrack and bravura cinematography, is like a bolt from the blue, chock-full of unexpected delight. -

It's aimed at adults as much as children, with jokes that work on multiple levels, and contraptions. -

Girl on the Bridge, with its doomed art-house romanticism and echoes of Fellini, may not be the deepest piece of filmmaking out there now, but it is easily the most intoxicating. Take the leap. -

Steven Rea 100
A slo-mo gem of gangster cool, of vintage Hollywood noir reimagined by a French new waver in love with American cars, American jazz, and the kind of trench-coated tough-guys embodied by Humphrey Bogart and Robert Mitchum. -

This is a sweet, gentle film - slow and sunny like a summer day, with a message that growing up can be hard, but can also serve as the wellspring of memories that will sustain you for a lifetime. -

A quiet, heart-rending masterpiece, one with an actor's turn that people will remember, and rediscover, eons into the future. -

A beautiful, appropriately loping little gem about growing older, daring to take risks and follow your heart. That probably sounds corny, and The Straight Story is. -

With its knowing take on men, messed-up romance and music, is like one long, hook-filled pop song for the eyes. -

With a bit of Tintin and Tati, Charlie Chaplin and Wallace and Gromit echoing in the pacing and comic sensibility, Triplets of Belleville conjures up a world that's totally surprising and sublime. -
