Review of People Like Us (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Screen International (2,241) on 31 Jul 2012

An affectionate drama marked and buoyed by engaging performances…

Review of One Day on Earth (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 31 Jul 2012

Beguiling as well as meandering, but thought-provoking and frequently gorgeous, it's an interesting nonfiction snapshot that's much cheaper…

Review of Safety Not Guaranteed (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 29 Jul 2012

An entertaining seriocomic bauble that richly mines for laughs the pained regret and fumbling desires of its characters in much the same manner…

Review of Ruby Sparks (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 29 Jul 2012

A beguiling, effervescent deconstruction of the Manic Pixie Dream Girl subgenre by way of Stranger Than Fiction, with both charm and a certain…

Review of Drunkboat (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 29 Jul 2012

A passion project ill suited to cinematic adaptation, or at least sludgy, unresolved, mannered and grating in its realized incarnation…

Review of Double Trouble (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Screen International (2,241) on 29 Jul 2012

A slickly packaged action comedy that, for both better and worse, gets much of its inspiration from Western sources…

Review of The Tortured (2010)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 28 Jul 2012

A stupendously inane and pointless slice of revenge-based horror whose title might as well describe the audience watching it…

Review of Natural Selection (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 28 Jul 2012

A cracked road trip, marked by a pair of arresting leads turns, shot through with good intention but lacking in either deft enough execution…

Review of Entrance (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 28 Jul 2012

A deliberately paced indie offering that bills itself as a psychological thriller but is actually an aimless tone piece about twentysomething…

Review of For the Love of Money (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 28 Jul 2012

Viewers have traveled this road of criminal menace before, only this time it's peppered with more exclamations of 'L'chaim…

Review of Ultrasonic (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 28 Jul 2012

A savvy, artful, well constructed little domestic drama of paranoia that builds its story around its limited production means but never sacrifices…

Review of Patagonia Rising (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 28 Jul 2012

A well-meaning but dry and pedantic documentary, the movie doesn't do much to bring fire, passion or interest to this story outside of a demographic…

Review of The Girl from the Naked Eye (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 28 Jul 2012

A pulpy, low-budget slice of film noir cross-pollinated with a martial arts flick, this Girl wins no awards for great originality but nonetheless…

Review of Hysteria (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 28 Jul 2012

A sly yet seriously mounted comedy that plays like a post-war Ealing Studios pin-prick satire of British character and society…

Review of The Intouchables (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 28 Jul 2012

The rare crowd-pleaser that reaches for something more -- a rich, buoyant tale about the simple act of human connection and how it makes the…

Review of Cellmates (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 28 Jul 2012

A slight but amiable prison-set satire, Cellmates surfs along mostly on the good fortune of its casting and sly peculiarity of its forced-odd-couple…

Review of 6 Month Rule (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 28 Jul 2012

If the plotting and payoffs of this love triangle are a bit problematic and less satisfying than one wished, there are also pleasant inversions…

Review of Mighty Fine (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 28 Jul 2012

A somewhat drab and unimaginative telling further dents this dull melodrama of already rather limited psychological insights, and pat conclusions…

Review of The Watch (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Screen International (2,241) on 26 Jul 2012

A wearying, lackluster sci-fi comedy, The Watch is a premise in search of a compelling story, and an exemplar of indulgent improvisation gone…

Review of The Pact (2010)

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

Debut director Nicholas McCarthy possesses a good grasp of effective, tension-building technique in this psychologically rooted chiller, in…
