Damsels in Distress

Greta Gerwig stars in Whit Stillman's new film that's full of awkward artifice and – dance.

"...lands way off Whitman’s own mark. The comedy is arch, the performances are purposely stiff, and the narrative makes..."

August Rush

August Rush is a rather prosaic, oddly anxious, contemporary take on Oliver Twist, with Robin Williams – in nasty-man twee mode – thrown in for bad measure.

"...night coupling on a rooftop overlooking Manhattan's Washington Square Arch, they promptly go their separate ways. Neither one realizes..."

Broken English

Parker Posey gives a lovely, toned-down performance as Nora Wilder, the single, mid-30s Manhattanite at the heart of this romantic comedy.

"...chops than are usually on display in the more arch comic roles in which she's usually cast. Nora works..."

Marebito

Although long on style and concept, this film lacks the primal urgency of Shimizu’s 2003 J-horror blockbuster Ju-on.

Cry Wolf

A tech-centric but bloodless teen horror thriller that works best as a stinging critique of post-adolescent whininess.

Bigger Than the Sky

Despite some bright spots in this woefully earnest modern romance, Bigger Than the Sky is awash in the obvious and sports a cloying adulation of theatre folk.

"...The film adopts a dullard’s view of the proscenium arch as a comically romantic chapel for the social misfit..."

Assault on Precinct 13

This new version of John Carpenter's classic is superfluous in the extreme, and while it’s not technically a bad movie, per se, viewers unfamiliar with the film’s lineage will likely write it off as yet another midwinter also-ran, the sort of action film that never quite takes off and instead focuses on random gun battles and cheesy dialogue.

"...to ooze severity, he comes off as one more arch-criminal parody. Also on board for the wild night are..."

Rick

Directed by Gus Van Sant's longtime editor and written by Lemony Snicket author Daniel Handler, Rick is a harsh but compelling tale that loosely mixes tragedy and comedy.
