Review of Ben Lee: Catch My Disease (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 14 Dec 2012

A solid sense of scope plus the happy involvement of its quirky subject help give the film its strongest pull, but also contribute to a polite…

Review of Hollow (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 12 Dec 2012

Solid, largely naturalistic performances and a nice technical package offset, if only for hardcore genre enthusiasts, a story whose bump-in-the-night…

Review of A Royal Affair (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 12 Dec 2012

Gorgeously photographed if familiarly constructed, it's more or less catnip for urban foreign film aficionados and the NPR set, breathing life…

Review of Hollow (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 12 Dec 2012

Solid, largely naturalistic performances and a nice technical package offset, if only for hardcore genre enthusiasts, a story whose bump-in-the-night…

Review of Hollow (2014)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 12 Dec 2012

Solid, largely naturalistic performances and a nice technical package offset, if only for hardcore genre enthusiasts, a story whose bump-in-the-night…

Review of Zero Dark Thirty (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 09 Dec 2012

A darkly gripping, tunnel-visioned procedural -- a dirge wrapped in grey morality, and served up with a pulse-quickening side dish of siege pay-off…

Review of Waiting for Lightning (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 08 Dec 2012

Another descendant of Stacy Peralta's influential Dogtown and Z-Boys, but more stylish and engaging than most of its less inquisitive, like-minded,…

Review of Who Bombed Judi Bari? (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 08 Dec 2012

An engaging document of Bari's eventual exoneration (in her own bombing), but also a nonfiction tribute to the steel-spined spirit of Bari…

Review of Bachelorette (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 08 Dec 2012

Self-consciously raunchy, and simply more loud and annoying than funny, Bachelorette serves as ample evidence that women can do stupid and…

Review of Playing for Keeps (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Screen International (2,241) on 08 Dec 2012

What could have been a more complicated and contemporary suburban spin on Alfie feels like a lazy and anonymous daydream postcard of discord…

Review of What a Man (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 06 Dec 2012

An unlikely and generally winning if utterly formulaic blend of male fretfulness and romantic bloom rooted in friendship... but in German…

Review of Buffalo Girls (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 06 Dec 2012

A surprising and sad glimpse into an unusual and heretofore largely unknown subculture, but one that feels frustratingly aimless…

Review of Grave Encounters 2 (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 13 Nov 2012

Gathers up a head of loose-limbed steam and bundles it up in a nice technical package, but then fumbles it away on a story that buckles under…

Review of Solomon Kane (2009)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 01 Nov 2012

Formulaic, but it settles down into a fine if square-jawed groove, delivering rousing adventure of a sort which should generally please fans…

Review of For a Good Time, Call... (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 01 Nov 2012

Transcends the more pat aspects of its story, connecting in fun fashion by sheer force of personality…

Review of The Campaign (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Screen International (2,241) on 01 Nov 2012

A hopelessly broad and undisciplined comedy that features a small handful of amusing ideas but otherwise represents a major missed opportunity…

Review of The Apparition (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Screen International (2,241) on 01 Nov 2012

A thinly sketched paranormal thriller stripped almost bare of anything that might provide some color, complication or personality…

Review of Death By China (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 01 Nov 2012

Manic and scattershot, Death by China is too overheated to impart its case with surgical precision. It feels, by God, but also overwhelms…

Review of Pusher (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 01 Nov 2012

Pusher has a neon-lit nervy energy -- at once slick and grungy -- and the sort of unabashed, screw-tightening rhythms that genre enthusiasts…

Review of Photographic Memory (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 01 Nov 2012

Beguiling and homespun -- full of both answers and questions, feelings and wonder…
