Reviews
Wetlands
With pop sensibilities that purposefully arouse attention, Wetlands‘ provocative content is playfully packaged.
Blue Ruin
One of the best things about the film is its portrayal of an ‘anti-action’ hero acting against his own nature.
The Great Beauty
The film features a decaying Rome filled with inhabitants who wallow in debauchery and superficial, luxurious lifestyles.
Concrete Night
Showing rather than telling and exquisitely intricate monochrome visuals hold the key to this feature.
Rhymes for Young Ghouls
Writer/director Jeff Barnaby takes the mythic approach to a coming of age tale steeped in tradition.
The Keeper of Lost Causes
Heavily indebted to the new wave of Nordic noir overtaking screens, the tables have been turned ever so slightly in…
Watermark
The film gazes literally and intricately at the imprint and impact made by oceans, lakes and expanses of liquid.
Jersey Boys
Clint Eastwood’s attempt to let the songs sell the show while stripping the content of its vitality simply doesn’t work.
Rio 2
The busy presentation smacks of attempting to do too much with too little effort.
Yves Saint Laurent
Perceptive portrayals and pretty pictures can’t cure this film’s inertia.
