The Room Next Door (2024) 81% “The Room Next Door turns into something spiky, unnerving, and at times joyously silly. ” – New Statesman Oct 30, 2024 Full Review Top Gun: Maverick (2022) 96% “While the new film is not as memorable, or of its moment, it’s a more coherent piece of character drawing, a more exhilarating spectacle, and, by virtue of not being made in the mid-1980s, altogether less daft.” – New Statesman May 27, 2022 Full Review Frantz (2016) 91% “Ozon wants to add another layer of perspective, to place Frantz's death in yet another context. Instead, the film's second half makes the first look strategic-a means to an end-serving less to countervail or complement than to cancel it out.” – Newsweek May 4, 2017 Full Review Room 237 (2012) 94% 3/5 “A documentary that compiles the theories, frequently hilarious, rarely persuasive, about subliminal imagery in Stanley Kubrick's film...” – Financial Times Oct 25, 2012 Full Review Sister (2012) 97% 4/5 “Sister gradually reveals pattern in its tapestry of everyday life.” – Financial Times Oct 25, 2012 Full Review Elena (2011) 94% 4/5 “Zvyagintsev, who made The Return and The Banishment, does a good impression of constructing a world while secretly spinning a web.” – Financial Times Oct 25, 2012 Full Review Skyfall (2012) 92% 3/5 “Mendes wants to combine a Bourne-like lack of quips and frippery with Christopher Nolan-ish solemnity and gigantism ...” – Financial Times Oct 25, 2012 Full Review The Devil's Business (2011) 71% 2/5 “Things takes an unexpected swerve into occult territory - a bizarre and tiresome development that leaves you longing for when the film was just derivative and flat.” – Financial Times Aug 16, 2012 Full Review L'oiseau (The Bird) (2011) 64% 2/5 “A study of grief and recovery set in Bordeaux and containing little in the way of dialogue, action or interest.” – Financial Times Aug 16, 2012 Full Review Take This Waltz (2011) 79% 3/5 “Polley delivers a rich evocation of the central marriage, with its mixture of by-rote ritual and easy comfort, and makes the wise and unusual decision to portray the cuckold-to-be (Seth Rogen) as decent and good-natured, rather than stiff or cruel.” – Financial Times Aug 16, 2012 Full Review The Bourne Legacy (2012) 56% 2/5 “Where The Bourne Ultimatum was a lesson in how to construct a jargon-heavy, location-hopping, it-goes-all-the-way-up-to-the-top spy thriller, The Bourne Legacy is a lesson in how not to.” – Financial Times Aug 16, 2012 Full Review The Expendables 2 (2012) 68% 2/5 “Partly a cautionary tale about the dangers of decades of bodybuilding and partly a throwback to the good old days of the Reagan era, when all you needed to make an action film was a man with muscles, an exotic setting and a hundred screaming extras ...” – Financial Times Aug 16, 2012 Full Review American Reunion (2012) 45% 2/5 “The old bittersweet tone is gone, replaced by the sickly sweet and the downright tasteless.” – Financial Times May 3, 2012 Full Review Safe (2012) 59% 3/5 “In a film whose pleasures are mostly confined to the sound of guns being assembled at speed and bad dialogue being delivered with glee, polish is beside the point.” – Financial Times May 3, 2012 Full Review Monsieur Lazhar (2011) 98% 3/5 “The film invites comparison with Laurent Cantet's 2008 film The Class, which makes it look tame by comparison, but also Dead Poets Society, which makes it look tough.” – Financial Times May 3, 2012 Full Review Angel and Tony (2010) 85% 3/5 “The details of Normandy fishing life are rendered with surprising care.” – Financial Times May 3, 2012 Full Review Port of Shadows (1938) 96% 3/5 “The results are frustrating, though Michel Simon is wonderfully vulnerable as the shopkeeper Zabel, who complains about the injustice of loving like Romeo but looking like Bluebeard.” – Financial Times May 3, 2012 Full Review Goodbye First Love (2011) 83% 4/5 “Crton has the doe-like Rohmer face, and Hansen-Lve has the cool Rohmer touch - the one that lends grandeur to tales of middle-class Parisian heartache.” – Financial Times May 3, 2012 Full Review You Instead (2011) 38% 3/5 “The film shouldn't work, and for the most part doesn't; but it left me smiling.” – Financial Times Sep 15, 2011 Full Review I Don't Know How She Does It (2011) 17% 1/5 “The film, blah from start to finish, is more likely to sour fond memories than shake off old associations.” – Financial Times Sep 15, 2011 Full Review 30 Minutes or Less (2011) 45% 2/5 “It all goes horribly wrong, with the characters and the audience united in anguish.” – Financial Times Sep 15, 2011 Full Review The Change-Up (2011) 26% 3/5 “The writers keep the swift chatter coming, and the stars have a good time assuming each other's personas.” – Financial Times Sep 15, 2011 Full Review Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011) 84% 2/5 “This bloodless, bloodthirsty John Le Carré adaptation doesn't hang together.” – Financial Times Sep 15, 2011 Full Review Tracker (2010) 85% 3/5 “Would have looked comfortable on television.” – Financial Times Apr 27, 2011 Full Review Farewell (2009) 85% 3/5 “A French thriller based on fact...” – Financial Times Apr 27, 2011 Full Review
