Review of The Last Witch Hunter (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 21 Oct 2015

The story works out like you might expect. The joys are in the way director Breck Eisner, like Diesel, is earnest about this goofiness…

Review of The Pearl Button (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 19 Oct 2015

The voiceover is lyric, the oceanscapes majestic, the anthropology fascinating, and the connections more quizzical and uncertain than in Nostalgia…

Review of Rock the Kasbah (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 19 Oct 2015

The film often plays like everyone making it agreed that some on-set idea was so funny it had to be included, whether or not it suited the story…

Review of Jason and Shirley (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 19 Oct 2015

Jason and Shirley is imprecise, even maddening history, but it's hair-raising as historicity: Exposed here is the longstanding and somewhat…

Review of Suffragette (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 19 Oct 2015

Suffragette expends its energy selling us on what we already believe rather than examining the way these activists pressed the world into believing…

Review of Field Niggas (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 14 Oct 2015

Allah, a street photographer of deserved renown, has achieved something here beyond the familiar documentary impulse to show us the people…

Review of Goosebumps (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 12 Oct 2015

Especially in its superior first hour, Goosebumps has a loose comic rhythm at odds with what we see in effects-heavy would-be blockbuster junk…

Review of Truth (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 12 Oct 2015

Vanderbilt, the screenwriter of Zodiac, here making his debut as a director, masters the heady pulse of high-end, high-stakes journalism…

Review of A Woman Like Me (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 07 Oct 2015

In Sichel's inspired conceit, the self-reflexive truth-through-fiction ethos of the Iranian New Wave meets a sensitive documentary exploration…

Review of Rocco and His Brothers (1960)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 05 Oct 2015

The Parondis' lives are difficult but gorgeous; boxing is terrible but riveting; the city offers everything even as it takes everything away…

Review of Winter on Fire: Ukraine's Fight for Freedom (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 05 Oct 2015

Winter on Fire's thrilling rebellion is neither the beginning nor the end, but it is at least a truly heartening middle…

Review of Pan (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 04 Oct 2015

Jackman occasionally wins a laugh, when he manages to impose himself over the movie's restless clamor…

Review of Labyrinth of Lies (2014)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 28 Sep 2015

It's to the film's credit that truth-telling here looks as hard as it does noble, and that the Holocaust is not treated just as a suspense…

Review of Freeheld (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 28 Sep 2015

Beneath the clichés of prestige filmmaking beat the hearts of a couple it's a privilege to get to know…

Review of Western (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 24 Sep 2015

The film, a hard jewel of beauty and reportage, demands and rewards that second viewing…

Review of Stonewall (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 24 Sep 2015

Stonewall aspires to be a sweeping tale of social change and hardscrabble street life, but at every moment it feels like a musical whose numbers…

Review of Drunk Stoned Brilliant Dead (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 21 Sep 2015

It's dispiriting that a film about a humor magazine that broke and rebuilt the forms of both humor and magazines is itself so staid — and…

Review of 99 Homes (2015)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 21 Sep 2015

The film is more closing argument than portrait of life in the downturn, but it's thrillingly vigorous in its damning…

Review of The Cut (2014)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 14 Sep 2015

Ultimately, the film's wearying qualities pay off both as verisimilitude — you do feel like you've been through something — and as awe-inspiring…

Review of Cadaver (2007)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 14 Sep 2015
