“It is a thoroughly European work, thoughtful, realistic, sophisticated, without any compromise for effect or condescension to the audience with eye-catching action or simplified explanations.” –

The Conversation (1974)

“Coppola is relentless, chilling, uncompromising -- and somewhat muddled... But, once again, the three-dimensional reality potential of the celluloid breaks through and, mostly through Hackman's bravura performance, the audience is spellbound.” –

“Alexander Sokurov's "The Sun," arriving in the U.S. five years after its release in Europe, is a stunning film, fascinating to some, probably sleep-inducing to others.” –

“Though it lacks depth, Holy Rollers captures your attention early on and is able to sustain this momentum throughout. Kevin Asch has learned from his influences well and his feature debut takes its place among the better recent independent crime dramas.” –

“If you had a tough time getting through Shrek the Third, you'll probably have an even tougher time with Shrek Forever After. Oh, but it's in 3-D. That should make things pop, but it didn't make much of an impression, sort of like the rest of the animati” –

“A small, peculiar film with a big, grating personality, The Living Wake is like a party crasher at an intimate gathering, momentarily intriguing and difficult to forget, but mostly for the wrong reasons.” –

“Haley is a solid replacement for Englund as the murderous Freddy. He is particularly effective in the scenes of Freddy's earlier life. Although his talent was put to better use in "Watchmen" this role should give him employment for years to come.” –
