I Think I Do (1997) 42% “It hovers somewhere between Friends and Four Weddings and a Funeral, and while not as fully realized as even those, the film has a freshness that mediates the strained plotting and forced conviviality for a perfectly tolerable 93 minutes.” – L.A. Weekly Apr 17, 2024 Full Review Mortal Kombat Annihilation (1997) 4% “The makers of the thoroughly terrible Mortal Kombat: Annihilation haven't even attempted to move beyond their source material -- the super-popular video game -- and actually make a movie.” – L.A. Weekly Jul 20, 2021 Full Review Pather Panchali (1955) 98% “[Pather Panchali] is, quite simply, the sort of breathtaking achievement that lofts cinema to a higher ground.” – L.A. Weekly May 5, 2021 Full Review The Devil Never Sleeps (1994) 80% “[Lourdes Portillo] manipulates her film intercutting it with Mexican soap operas, projecting interviews onto the frames of sunglasses to point to the melodrama her family mystery has become. The effect is breathtaking.” – L.A. Weekly Dec 15, 2020 Full Review Committed (2000) 43% “The best thing about Committed is [Lisa] Krueger, a filmmaker who's not only willing to lead us into the well-traveled terrain of romantic comedy, but able to show us something new there. All she asks is that we have a little faith.” – L.A. Weekly Apr 30, 2020 Full Review I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997) 48% “All the scary, screaming, sniggering fun continues here, aided by swell performances from Hewitt and Gellar in particular... an appearance from the always groovy Anne Heche, and the crisp, crackerjack direction of Jim Gillespie.” – L.A. Weekly Mar 28, 2019 Full Review My Man Godfrey (1936) 97% “[A] screwball masterpiece.” – Village Voice Feb 6, 2009 Full Review The Amateurs (The Moguls) (Dirty Movie) (2005) 19% “As a writer, Traeger is consternatingly adolescent and glib.” – L.A. Weekly Dec 6, 2007 Full Review The White Horse Is Dead (2004) “Haphazardly pieced together.” – L.A. Weekly Feb 2, 2006 Full Review FAQs (2005) “The dialogue is blunter, and harder for his amateur cast to pull off, while Lewis' stridency, however justified, ultimately jars against the film's tender, all-is-love fantasia.” – L.A. Weekly Feb 2, 2006 Full Review POV (2005) 92% “One comes away not quite knowing what Weisberg wants to say with his occasional statistics laid over loosely edited, perfunctory video footage.” – L.A. Weekly Nov 10, 2005 Full Review Don't Tell (2005) 0% “Might make a fun Lifetime 온라인카지노추천 movie -- if it weren't quite so morose.” – L.A. Weekly Oct 13, 2005 Full Review The Letter (2003) 93% 5/5 “A carefully wrought, historically grounded and thoroughly absorbing look at a quintessential American experience.” – L.A. Weekly Aug 11, 2005 Full Review Wheel of Time (2003) 94% “For a Herzog documentary, Wheel of Time is surprisingly unfocused.” – L.A. Weekly Jun 4, 2005 Full Review Tom Dowd & the Language of Music (2003) 90% “It makes a convincing argument that Dowd's personal history is a kind of history of the 20th century itself, encompassing the era's art, science, commerce and politics.” – L.A. Weekly Aug 12, 2004 Full Review Anatomy 2 (2003) 33% “By the time we get to an unintentionally hilarious hospital-hall chase scene and an overblown O.R. climax, it's clear that Ruzowitzky hasn't quite the wit to match his flair.” – L.A. Weekly Aug 12, 2004 Full Review Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism (2004) 85% “A fast-paced, brilliantly edited indictment that's as hard to turn away from as it is infuriating to watch.” – L.A. Weekly Aug 5, 2004 Full Review Orwell Rolls in His Grave (2003) 79% “Even though he refuses to excise about 15 to 20 minutes of unnecessary material, Pappas is nonetheless a steady editor who, less intrepid than dogged, pieces together a sustainably intriguing, suitably distressing expos.” – L.A. Weekly Jul 28, 2004 Full Review Festival Express (2003) 96% “By the end of the tour, the booze-and- drug-soaked conveyance has, as one participant puts it, 'achieved liftoff,' and scenes of a final onboard party are both ecstatic and poignant.” – L.A. Weekly Jul 28, 2004 Full Review This Old Cub (2004) 74% “Shot on video with little regard for the aesthetics of framing -- and edited with as about as much feel for dynamics and pacing -- This Old Cub describes, superficially at best, the life and career of Santo.” – L.A. Weekly Jul 21, 2004 Full Review Freestyle (2002) 94% “A thoughtful overview of a major musical movement, from its churchy roots to its urban present, from its aggressive front to its spiritual underpinnings.” – L.A. Weekly Jul 21, 2004 Full Review Swing (2003) 42% “Writer Mary Keil and director Martin Guigui have little ability for striking a narrative tone and maintaining it, be it dramatic or comedic.” – L.A. Weekly Jun 17, 2004 Full Review Baadasssss! (2003) 91% “If the script, written by Mario with Dennis Haggerty, stops short of outright lionizing or demonizing, it leaves a strangely tepid character in its place.” – L.A. Weekly May 26, 2004 Full Review With All Deliberate Speed (2004) 76% “Gilbert's great achievement lies in his integration of disparate historical threads and voices into one steadily paced, riveting tale.” – L.A. Weekly May 12, 2004 Full Review Wasabi Tuna (2005) “It's the game cast ... that, bolstered by some sharp one-liners, sight gags and a blithe lack of self-importance, keeps aloft this lightweight camp comedy written and directed by Celia Fox.” – L.A. Weekly May 6, 2004 Full Review
