Airborne (1993) 31% EDIT “Kids might enjoy this teenage fish-out-of-the-surf comedy, but anyone approaching the high school age of the movie's characters will spot the obvious formula within 15 minutes of opening credits.” – Variety Sep 30, 2019 Full Review Austenland (2013) 32% 2/5 EDIT “This is unarguably literature-lite, and more likely to comes across as a patronising approach to the life's work of one of Britain's finest exports than a well-intentioned send-up.” – CineVue Mar 5, 2019 Full Review Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters (2013) 42% 2/5 EDIT “Younger audiences may still find themselves entertained by Sea of Monsters, but by slowing down the pace and having some faith in its actors, it could have been so much more.” – CineVue Feb 27, 2019 Full Review Fighting With My Family (2019) 93% 3/5 EDIT “A crowd-pleasing underdog that plays to its strengths.” – Little White Lies Feb 17, 2019 Full Review Dangerous Game (2017) 3/5 EDIT “A bizarre meta-comment on British film and celebrity lifestyles.” – Little White Lies Jun 15, 2017 Full Review Knuckleball! (2012) 94% 3.5/4 EDIT “The charming Knuckleball finds something universal here, about obsession, talent, perseverance and, rarest of all, good sportsmanship.” – Bloomberg News May 6, 2014 Full Review The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman (2013) 25% EDIT “LaBeouf is his usual cocky, watchable self, but "Charlie Countryman" can't concoct any credible reason for him or us to stay abroad.” – Bloomberg News Nov 15, 2013 Full Review Nebraska (2013) 90% EDIT “Anywhere else but in this movie, Woody's quest would evidence a high level of dementia. "Nebraska" is far too precious to entertain that notion.” – Bloomberg News Nov 15, 2013 Full Review Thor: The Dark World (2013) 67% EDIT “Marvel Studios hammers out yet another semi-leaden bit of comic-book bombast with 'Thor: The Dark World.'” – Bloomberg News Nov 8, 2013 Full Review Dallas Buyers Club (2013) 92% **** EDIT “Unlike Christian Bale's freak-show emaciation for 2004's 'The Machinist,' McConaughey's astonishing weight loss for his portrayal of AIDS activist Ron Woodruff doesn't overshadow the movie. It reinforces the authenticity of this fine film.” – Bloomberg News Nov 1, 2013 Full Review Capital (2012) 56% EDIT “Costa-Gavras has a good ear for boardroom doubletalk and cutthroat shenanigans, but can't quite decide whether to praise his young prince or bury him.” – Bloomberg News Oct 25, 2013 Full Review The Counselor (2013) 34% EDIT “Overwrought soliloquies about auto eroticism, snuff films and mechanical strangulation devices do not a 'Hamlet' make.” – Bloomberg News Oct 25, 2013 Full Review Life According to Sam (2013) 100% EDIT “Sam Berns's charisma and hard-won grace are present throughout the documentary, which follows the now-17-year-old boy's two-year involvement in a clinical trial for a new treatment.” – Bloomberg News Oct 20, 2013 Full Review All Is Lost (2013) 95% EDIT “In the late 1960s and early '70s, a young Robert Redford proved he could hold his own, on his own, against nature and the screen with 'Downhill Racer' and 'Jeremiah Johnson.' Four decades later he's still proving it with the thrilling 'All Is Lost.'” – Bloomberg News Oct 20, 2013 Full Review 12 Years a Slave (2013) 95% EDIT “No mainstream movie since "Schindler's List" has merged worthy sentiment and grueling sadism with such powerfully disturbing sweep.” – Bloomberg News Oct 20, 2013 Full Review The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2013) 52% EDIT “Who would have predicted that the rich fantasy world of James Thurber's day-dreaming Walter Mitty looks a lot like a second-rate Wes Anderson movie?” – Bloomberg News Oct 11, 2013 Full Review Kill Your Darlings (2013) 77% EDIT “Radcliffe, while nicely conveying Ginsberg's tortured sexuality, is just too darned cute to pass for the real thing.” – Bloomberg News Oct 11, 2013 Full Review CBGB (2013) 7% EDIT “'CBGB' is something those clamoring, three-chord amateurs rarely were: harmless.” – Bloomberg News Oct 11, 2013 Full Review Muhammad Ali's Greatest Fight (2013) 38% EDIT “A bland Benjamin Walker and a scowling Pablo Schreiber add little depth to their roles as mouthpieces for either side of history.” – Bloomberg News Oct 3, 2013 Full Review Runner Runner (2013) 8% * EDIT “Watching Brad Furman's tedious 'Runner Runner' feels like learning the rules of a card game you don't want to play.” – Bloomberg News Oct 3, 2013 Full Review Gravity (2013) 96% ***** EDIT “Cuaron has broken extraordinary ground here, creating a film-going immersion in outer space that, at least for those of us who've gotten no closer than an airplane allows, feels unfailingly right.” – Bloomberg News Oct 3, 2013 Full Review Inside Llewyn Davis (2013) 92% ***** EDIT “The Coen Brothers' remarkable 'Inside Llewyn Davis' is a conjuring act of near-magical conviction, an ode to the artistic spirit that's as uncompromising as the troubled genius it chronicles.” – Bloomberg News Oct 1, 2013 Full Review Muscle Shoals (2013) 96% EDIT “Ruminations on Native American legends and Helen Keller's water pump would be fine in an Alabama travelogue, but in 'Muscle Shoals?' Couldn't we please get back to "Mustang Sally?"” – Bloomberg News Sep 29, 2013 Full Review After Tiller (2013) 92% EDIT “"Its unflinching portrayal of what can only be called battle fatigue is indelible.” – Bloomberg News Sep 20, 2013 Full Review Rush (2013) 89% EDIT “Howard -- who began his directing career with the fast-car drive-in classic "Grand Theft Auto" -- has an aficionado's ear for revved engines and whooshing chassis.” – Bloomberg News Sep 20, 2013 Full Review
