Eraserhead (1977) 87% “Eraserhead has the tastelessness of schlock without the speed and vulgar energy that can make true schlock entertaining. But David Lynch is not without talent, and as long as we can see what he's taking off from, Eraserhead is good, malicious satire. ” – Boston Phoenix Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Girlfriends (1978) 93% “The realistic atmosphere of Girlfriends may be pleasing, but the situations it embellishes are utterly conventional. ” – Boston Phoenix May 17, 2023 Full Review Celine and Julie Go Boating (1974) 80% “One of the most excruciating bores of all time. ” – Boston Phoenix Feb 28, 2023 Full Review Ram-Leela (2013) 67% “The most effective sequences the two stars have together are the large-scale dance numbers, which are beautifully and imaginatively staged.” – Variety Dec 12, 2017 Full Review Dedh Ishqiya (2014) 83% “The exhilarating Dedh Ishqiya is the young writer-director Abhishek Chaubey's worthy sequel to one of the sharpest Bollywood comedies of recent years.” – Variety Dec 8, 2017 Full Review Boss (2013) 0% “In the end, it is little more than an extended high-energy commercial for the mugging wonderfulness of its leading man, veteran scenery-chewing megastar Akshay Kumar.” – Variety Oct 20, 2017 Full Review Defender (2013) 71% “The silly, square and charming Bollywood superhero picture Krrish 3 measures up pretty well, provided you bear in mind that it's more of a kids' movie than its U.S. counterparts.” – Variety Apr 15, 2015 Full Review Queen (2014) 92% “It is charming and at times unexpectedly moving ...” – Variety Mar 24, 2014 Full Review Hasee Toh Phasee (2014) 80% “This comedy reinvigorates the familiar conventions of Bollywood's signature genre.” – Variety Mar 23, 2014 Full Review Shaadi Ke Side Effects (2014) 62% “Sitcom leftovers are artlessly reheated in this repetitive and exaggerated romantic comedy-drama about a newlywed couple.” – Variety Mar 23, 2014 Full Review Total Chaos (2014) “At under two hours, the pic is drastically shorter than most Hindi movies, although it feels longer.” – Variety Mar 9, 2014 Full Review Gunday (2014) 56% “What makes "Gunday" work and pulls us along is the great skill and obvious affection with which these familiar elements have been deployed.” – Variety Feb 17, 2014 Full Review Jai Ho (2014) 14% “Carries to a new level of slapdash vulgarity the blunt-force, post-"Matrix" style of action moviemaking that rules the roost now in Hindi cinema.” – Variety Jan 29, 2014 Full Review Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo (2012) 20% “Long on visual ingenuity, short on coherent storytelling.” – Variety Jan 12, 2014 Full Review Mountain of the Moon (2013) 10% “The thrills seem to have evaporated from Kamaleswar Mukherjee's handsome, slow-moving adaptation of a classic Bengali novel.” – Variety Jan 12, 2014 Full Review Dhoom 3 (2013) 67% “Acharya's camera seems to be dancing - and swooning - along with the performers. Cynics need not apply.” – Variety Dec 21, 2013 Full Review Rambo Rajkumar (2013) 0% “The 'R' stands for 'Romeo,' but there's little to love in this sluggish Bollywood action comedy.” – Variety Dec 9, 2013 Full Review Bullett Raja (2013) 29% “"Bullett Raja" is, for most of its length, a tight, clever, blithely amoral crime drama about a buddy pair of hit men rising to the top of the mob heap in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh.” – Variety Dec 1, 2013 Full Review Gori Tere Pyaar Mein (2013) 40% “The falseness of the exaggerated romantic comedy sequences here infect the aspects of the story that should be underplayed and gentle, as they were in "Swades."” – Variety Nov 25, 2013 Full Review Kites (2010) 71% “Not even the incoherent mishmash of plot...can entirely dim the appeal of this match-up between a blue-eyed Punjabi and a blue-eyed Mexican of almost equal comeliness.” – L.A. Weekly Jun 7, 2010 Full Review Kites (2010) 71% “Not even the incoherent mish-mash of plot (mostly faux Sergio Leone by way of Tarantino and Rodriguez, with periodic car-flipping chase sequences) can entirely dim the appeal of this match-up.” – Village Voice May 19, 2010 Full Review 3 Idiots (2009) 100% “A superstar for more than two decades, Aamir Khan has never been more popular than he is today, in his mid-40s.” – L.A. Weekly Jan 5, 2010 Full Review Paa (2009) 44% “The film owes much of its interest to the alertness and sincerity of the younger Bachchan and the luminous Vidya Balan as the anguished parents, and to the soft wash of the tasteful playback songs supplied by Ilaiyaraaja.” – L.A. Weekly Dec 14, 2009 Full Review Wanted (2009) “Khan and Deva will do just about anything for effect, and even an over-the-top amoral revenge fantasy needs a shred of internal consistency.” – L.A. Weekly Sep 24, 2009 Full Review Dil Bole Hadippa! (2009) 60% “Dil Bole Hadippa! is a sad commercial place holder of a movie, a product of an industry that has treading water for some time, now, patiently waiting for the next big trend.” – L.A. Weekly Sep 24, 2009 Full Review
