Girls Town (1996) 81% 2.5/4 “The viewer has no better sense of where life will take them after the closing credits roll. If the point is that life has ragged edges, however, the movie itself is admirably compact.” – New York Daily News Nov 14, 2024 Full Review Just Another Girl on the I.R.T. (1992) 69% 3/4 “Just Another Girl on the I.R.T. isn't just another anything. It's a snapshot of a scene most people think they know, only as the camera gets closer, the picture changes. Even when the viewer laughs, which is often, the ground is subtly shifting.” – New York Daily News Jan 11, 2023 Full Review Nothing But a Man (1964) 98% 3/4 “Director Michael Roemer and his co-writer, Robert Young, strip down even the dialogue to its essence, rarely using a sentence when a phrase will do.” – New York Daily News Jan 31, 2022 Full Review 4/5 “Elisabeth Moss anchors the film as Detective Robin Griffin, a tough cop and restless woman whose curt manner suggests she has secrets.” – New York Daily News Nov 16, 2021 Full Review El Mariachi (1992) 91% 3/4 “Despite plot holes wider than the Rio Grande, director and co-writer Robert Rodriguez delivers an action movie that triumphs on pure charm.” – New York Daily News Sep 8, 2021 Full Review Hangin' With the Homeboys (1991) 93% 2.5/4 “As with [American] Graffiti or [The Lords of] Flatbush, this ensemble should send several folks on to bigger things. Vasquez generally shows a smart touch, neither light nor heavy.” – New York Daily News Aug 12, 2021 Full Review Die Hard With a Vengeance (1995) 60% 3/5 “Samuel L. Jackson ensures that Bruce Willis' third stint as the ragged detective John McClane is a triumphant one.” – New York Daily News May 7, 2021 Full Review A Family Is A Family Is A Family: A Rosie O'Donnell Celebration (2010) “You may not leave this special loving Rosie's position on gay marriage. It's impossible not to come away loving the stars.” – New York Daily News Aug 18, 2020 Full Review The Sunset Limited (2011) 68% “If you're up for something that leaves you unsettled and disturbed, but perhaps also provoked and stimulated, you've come to the right place.” – New York Daily News Aug 6, 2020 Full Review The Girl (2012) 70% “It feels choppy in spots... Still, superb performances by Toby Jones as Hitchcock and Sienna Miller as Hedren keep the story alive and moving.” – New York Daily News Aug 4, 2020 Full Review Temple Grandin (2010) 100% “Every child diagnosed as autistic isn't Temple Grandin. But in Danes' pitchperfect and unblinking presentation of her story lies the blueprint for how the world should see potential, rather than limitations.” – New York Daily News Jul 29, 2020 Full Review Hemingway & Gellhorn (2012) 49% “Kidman's Gellhorn, who periodically narrates the story from the future, reflects that they were "good together in war" and had no idea what to do without it. Neither, in a way, does the film” – New York Daily News Jun 1, 2020 Full Review Prayers for Bobby (2009) 73% “The problem here lies with wrapping that message inside a movie that has so little nuance it plays like a public service announcement.” – New York Daily News Oct 3, 2019 Full Review Teen Beach 2 (2015) 80% “In the end, Teen Beach Movie owes more to its 1960s predecessors than its audience might realize, painting the same fantasy world where everyone is nice. No real-life people actually live there. But it's a cool getaway.” – New York Daily News Sep 18, 2019 Full Review Camp Rock (2008) 50% “This is Cinderella or Snow White in contemporary casual with a Z-100 beat.” – New York Daily News Sep 11, 2019 Full Review Descendants (2015) 90% “Thanks to winning performances by [Dove] Cameron, [Kristin]Chenoweth and others, it's a flick the family can sit down and enjoy.” – New York Daily News Sep 9, 2019 Full Review 3/5 “I Swear to God is niche humor, aimed at young guys. But the young guy doing it shows us he's good enough so if he ever wants to branch out, he can. Maybe someday he'll make a swell curmudgeon.” – New York Daily News Aug 6, 2019 Full Review Whitney Cummings: I Love You (2014) “Whitney Cummings returns to the world of standup with this Comedy Central special, and it's good to have her back. The hourlong set feels a little uneven, with some hilarious passages and a few lulls.” – New York Daily News Aug 5, 2019 Full Review Wanda Sykes: I'ma Be Me (2009) 86% “[Wanda Sykes] isn't afraid and is funny.” – New York Daily News Aug 2, 2019 Full Review Dana Carvey: Squatting Monkeys Tell No Lies (2008) 20% “Since Carvey built much of his "Saturday Night Live" reputation on imitations of political personalities, he finds a way here to mash a half-dozen of them together... It's comedically okay, but it feels like nostalgia humor.” – New York Daily News Aug 1, 2019 Full Review Jim Gaffigan: Obsessed (2014) 100% “Funny thing is, that's true, and Gaffigan proves it with a fast-moving hour of standup that you don't have to mute if the kids or Grandma walk into the room.” – New York Daily News Jul 25, 2019 Full Review Bill Burr: I'm Sorry You Feel That Way (2014) 100% “It's not an all-ages comedy special. It will entertain the grownups.” – New York Daily News Jul 10, 2019 Full Review Birdsong (2012) 75% “Birdsong burrows down into the individual stories and dreams that die on these killing fields, and in that sense it is terribly sad.” – New York Daily News Aug 18, 2018 Full Review Grey Gardens (2009) 88% “No matter how many times we revisit the story and peek in the windows, there really isn't much we can do except shake our heads and acknowledge that some people either don't get very good cards or don't play them very well.” – New York Daily News Jul 25, 2018 Full Review Too Big to Fail (2011) 77% “Whether you agree or disagree, the film sorts out a complex situation in simple and human terms.” – New York Daily News Jun 25, 2018 Full Review
