Review of Language of a Broken Heart (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 23 Apr 2013

Exactly the movie that one expects it to be -- a frustrating quality for some, but smooth medicine for those who trust and like writer-actors…

Review of Oblivion (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 19 Apr 2013

A boldly rendered film with faulty nuts, bolts and wiring is still, at its core, a movie that doesn't work. Witness Oblivion…

Review of Koch (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 17 Apr 2013

The gift of Koch is that it embraces the clutter and volume of opinion about the man…

Review of Upside Down (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 17 Apr 2013

What begins as a grand concept full of unusual possibilities quickly succumbs to a frustrating mixture of pretentiousness and torpor in this…

Review of The We and the I (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 17 Apr 2013

An artful, scrambled, energetic blend of youthful connection and hormonally charged carousing [that] works more as a caffeinated conveyance…

Review of Saving Lincoln (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 17 Apr 2013

An ancillary curio about the man and his struggles, at least for history buffs, and an unusual exception to an old screenwriting rule -- a…

Review of The Company You Keep (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 16 Apr 2013

A decidedly American story of graying moral certitude to match graying temples, Robert Redford's ninth film as a director is about secrets,…

Review of Brief Reunion (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 16 Apr 2013

A solid, smartly wound little psychological drama that digs into some of the knotty qualities of mid-life adult relationships…

Review of Rescue in the Philippines: Refuge from the Holocaust (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 16 Apr 2013

If every war is a thousand rolling tragedies, then the flip side of such conflict is also the opportunities it provides for humanity to showcase…

Review of Beware of Mr. Baker (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 14 Apr 2013

By turns sad and darkly comedic, but never less than mesmerizing -- a moving and morally conflicted portrait of a true questing spirit…

Review of Hunky Dory (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 14 Apr 2013

A period piece spin on Glee, as filtered through the gauzy lens of underclass-artistic-exuberance that's plagued a subset of comedic-leaning…

Review of Eddie: The Sleepwalking Cannibal (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 14 Apr 2013

A quirky but unfulfilling Canadian-Danish horror-comedy that has a substantial helping of originality on its side, but not much in the way…

Review of Spring Breakers (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 13 Apr 2013

An audacious, synth-pop mélange of ecstatic heaven and drugged-out hell -- an allegory for the corruption of innocence and the fear of blossoming…

Review of Blancanieves (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 13 Apr 2013

A loving tribute to European silent films of the 1920s; a reminder that cinema need not be constrained by words…

Review of Tomorrow You're Gone (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 11 Apr 2013

Assuming a series of increasingly empty noir postures and grimaces, Dorff expedites the plunge into frustrating pointlessness of this curious…

Review of Room 237 (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 11 Apr 2013

Powered by a deep and abiding affection for both The Shining and Kubrick in general, Room 237 is an amuse-bouche of remix culture…

Review of 42 (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 11 Apr 2013

Skimming pleasantly enough along the surface of more potentially roiling drama, and lacking an inner boil, 42 is a biopic of carefully crafted…

Review of Detour (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 02 Apr 2013

While not lacking for decent acting or technical execution, Detour lacks a compelling enough arc to sustain what might have worked much better…

Review of Detour (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 02 Apr 2013

While not lacking for decent acting or technical execution, Detour lacks a compelling enough arc to sustain what might have worked much better…

Review of Love and Honor (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 02 Apr 2013

A well meaning but essentially dopey period piece film that tries with increasingly diminishing effectiveness to meld an anti-war message with…
