Review of Revenge of the Electric Car (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 02 Nov 2011

An entertaining look at the auto industry's about-face on electric cars, but a movie that could have dug deeper, especially in a political…

Review of The Rum Diary (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 01 Nov 2011

The Rum Diary is sort of the filmic equivalent of an unexpected blast of jazz -- an amusing slice of tropical noir beholden to little more…

Review of Trespass (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 01 Nov 2011

A thunderously stupid home invasion thriller about a diamond dealer who has a wall-safe with the password 'diamond.' Yes, seriously…

Review of In Time (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Screen International (2,241) on 31 Oct 2011

Messy and half-formed, but a pleasing throwback to an era in which ideas powered movies more than special effects, In Time provides a steady…

Review of In Time (2005)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Screen International (2,241) on 31 Oct 2011

Messy and half-formed, but a pleasing throwback to an era in which ideas powered movies more than special effects, In Time provides a steady…

Review of Like Crazy (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 26 Oct 2011

Beautifully acted, and tender and evocative -- a closed-loop romance for those seeking uplift, and a melancholic rumination from adulthood…

Review of Klitschko (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 25 Oct 2011

Klitschko at least showcases behemoth athletic champions who are worthy of role model status for reasons other than just their physical…

Review of Hell and Back Again (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 24 Oct 2011

Belies the misguided notion that a nonfiction effort on war's aftermath can't be artistically minded, and also can't somehow be as moving as…

Review of El Bulli: Cooking in Progress (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 23 Oct 2011

A rather elegantly simplistic and hands-off exploration of food as avant-garde art that cooks up all sorts of elemental yearnings in the tastebuds…

Review of Oranges and Sunshine (2010)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 22 Oct 2011

A 'message movie' told in staid, blocky fashion, as if already edited down for a Hallmark-style TV presentation, and the lowest-common-denominator…

Review of Connected: An Autoblogography About Love, Death & Technology (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 21 Oct 2011

Tiffany Shlain's rangy, autobiographic treatise on technology and modern life has a soul, and bristles with a hunger and intellectual vigor…

Review of The Mighty Macs (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Screen International (2,241) on 19 Oct 2011

Achingly familiar and evincing little ambition to stretch beyond its comfortably prescribed parameters of feel-good fortification, the film…

Review of Take Shelter (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 17 Oct 2011

When its last, proudly ambiguous note is struck, one leaves convinced only that there exists a greater exploitation of this same concept yet…

Review of Father of Invention (2010)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 16 Oct 2011

A weird and fitfully fresh comedy with a name-heavy cast that almost methodically fumbles away a viewer's engagement, leaving them with thoughts…

Review of Mardi Gras: Spring Break (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 13 Oct 2011

An unsubtle and roundly unfunny stinker, and the sort of film that no cast member would bring up freely of their own volition in any interview…

Review of The Woman (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 11 Oct 2011

Its muddled finale feels like a manifestation of Weezer's 'Undone (The Sweater Song),' but this Woman is undeniably unforgettable, and in a…

Review of Margaret (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Screen International (2,241) on 03 Oct 2011

A jumbled mass of conflicting impulses? Yes. Lurching and at times pretentious? Yes…

Review of Real Steel (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Screen International (2,241) on 02 Oct 2011

A tremendous technical polish is brought to bear upon what is frequently a rather awkward grafting of family drama and overblown, futuristic…

Review of Berlin '36 (2009)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 02 Oct 2011

Not all true stories are created equal, as Berlin '36, which unfolds with such a singular lack of dramatic heft as to almost defy logic, amply…

Review of Shaolin (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 01 Oct 2011

Ambitiously staged set pieces fall victim to portentous technique, creating an ultimately irreconcilable chasm between how much one wants to…
