Alien Resurrection (1997) 55% 3.5/5 “The fourth instalment in the Alien franchise isn't just a bloodbath. It also happens to be a seriously twisted, always enthralling piece of film-making that is light-years removed from the generic sequels churned out by the major studios.” – Montreal Gazette Aug 6, 2024 Full Review Sparkler (1998) 55% “An often funny, always captivating ride through the kitschy underbelly of life on the road to Vegas. ” – Variety Jan 18, 2023 Full Review La Bolduc (2018) 3/5 “Instead, the filmmakers turn it into something of a didactic drama, ramming home the idea that La Bolduc was a feminist hero...But this film remains worth seeing.” – Montreal Gazette Apr 6, 2018 Full Review Bon Cop, Bad Cop (2006) 80% 3/5 “Bon Cop Bad Cop is what it is, and no more: un bon summer entertainment.” – Montreal Gazette May 25, 2017 Full Review Bon Cop Bad Cop 2 (2017) 75% 3/5 “Let's cut to the chase for those of you who are not particularly patient. Bon Cop Bad Cop 2 is fun and you really should go see it. But it doesn't capture lightning in a bottle the way the original did.” – Montreal Gazette May 11, 2017 Full Review This Is Our Cup (2017) 2.5/5 “I was left with the feeling that it's a hockey movie for people who don't really like hockey.” – Montreal Gazette Feb 23, 2017 Full Review 1:54 (2016) 57% 3/5 “It's all quite conventional but packs a powerful punch, in large part thanks to Pilon's nuanced performance.” – Montreal Gazette Dec 9, 2016 Full Review Prank (2016) 4/5 “It's an often-hilarious, frequently vulgar off-kilter comedy about four young people on a quest to pull off the ultimate prank.” – Montreal Gazette Oct 27, 2016 Full Review 9 (2016) 2.5/5 “It is entirely unsurprising that 9 - Le film is uneven. That's virtually always the case with projects like this made by multiple directors.” – Montreal Gazette Sep 23, 2016 Full Review Nitro Rush (2016) 1/5 “Hollywood churns out more than its fair share of believability-stretching action flicks, and the rather silly thriller Nitro Rush is simply the Qubcois variation on that formula.” – Montreal Gazette Sep 2, 2016 Full Review Mon ami Dino (2016) 4/5 “Films don't often surprise me. So that's one reason right off the bat that I really liked director Jimmy Larouche's Mon ami Dino. Then there's the fact that it also happens to be one deeply moving film.” – Montreal Gazette Aug 11, 2016 Full Review Boris Without Béatrice (2016) 58% 4/5 “Like Ct's best work, this morality play is challenging and utterly original.” – Montreal Gazette Mar 16, 2016 Full Review The Wild Run: The Legend (2016) 2.5/5 “It's just a little hard to take this seriously.” – Montreal Gazette Feb 26, 2016 Full Review Florida (2015) 3.5/5 “There are many reasons to see French writer-director Philippe Le Guay's Floride. In a movie world dominated by stories focused on young, beautiful people, this moving drama shines the light on one rather cranky 81-year-old man. That's one plus.” – Montreal Gazette Dec 1, 2015 Full Review Snowtime! (2015) 71% 3/5 “First things first: La guerre des tuques 3D, the animated remake of the classic 1984 Quebec family film, looks beautiful. This is no minor detail.” – Montreal Gazette Nov 19, 2015 Full Review Sugar Coated (2015) 3/5 “There's much food for thought here.” – Montreal Gazette Aug 27, 2015 Full Review Le Journal D'un Vieil Homme (2015) 2.5/5 “There is a real force to the drama right at the end, which has us wondering why it couldn't generate such intensity level much earlier.” – Montreal Gazette Aug 20, 2015 Full Review Le dep (2015) 4/5 “On one level, it works simply as a tight minimalist thriller. But Bonspille Boileau also manages to weave in a rich family drama and take a look at a bunch of social issues.” – Montreal Gazette Aug 6, 2015 Full Review The Mirage (2015) 3/5 “All the lead actors do reasonably well and it's a credit to Morissette that he manages to make this guy - who could so easily come off as a creep - appear to have some redeeming qualities.” – Montreal Gazette Aug 6, 2015 Full Review Antoine et Marie (2014) 4/5 “Like Larouche's first feature, 2012's La cicatrice, his new film is a heavy-duty drama that doesn't shy away from showcasing some of the darker corners of the human psyche.” – Montreal Gazette Jun 26, 2015 Full Review Caprice (2015) 4/5 “From the get-go, Mouret sets the tone -- a light oh-so-original comedy that's impossibly charming.” – Montreal Gazette Jun 11, 2015 Full Review Ce qu'il ne faut pas dire (2015) 3/5 “The mood kind of veers all over the place, and some of the big dramatic moments don't work nearly as well as they should. Still, Lepage deserves credit for mixing it up, with the dark drama counterbalancing the sophisticated comedy.” – Montreal Gazette May 29, 2015 Full Review Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck (2015) 97% 5/5 “It's stylistically daring and emotionally wrenching, two things you don't often see in the same film.” – Montreal Gazette May 8, 2015 Full Review The Bélier Family (2014) 83% 3/5 “[It's] entirely predictable and just as predictably moving.” – Montreal Gazette May 8, 2015 Full Review Preggoland (2014) 47% 3/5 “There is no shortage of goofy humour here, but Sonja Bennett's screenplay also grounds those light laughs in a story that skips around a defining question for women in their 30s.” – Montreal Gazette Apr 30, 2015 Full Review
