By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 10 Mar 2010

Review of Alice in Wonderland (2010)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Screen International (2,241) on 05 Mar 2010

Review of Ninja (2009)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 02 Mar 2010

As long as there are strip-mall dojos and martial arts fans who wish to see their kick-fantasy shenanigans acted out on celluloid, there will…

Review of The Good Guy (2009)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 25 Feb 2010

A sort of much more polite, estrogenized filmic companion piece to a lost, mid-era Bret Easton Ellis novel, this movie has a different, interesting…

Review of The Yellow Handkerchief (2009)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 23 Feb 2010

Kristen Stewart is the selling point, of course, but this idyllic road trip through post-Katrina Louisiana is mostly a showcase for William…

Review of Sherlock Holmes (2009)

Review of Youth in Revolt (2009)

Review of A Single Man (2009)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 20 Dec 2009

There's a bit of fussiness in some of the art direction, and by the time the third symbolic underwater sequence comes along, it feels a bit…

Review of Me and Orson Welles (2008)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 20 Dec 2009

Linklater brings his characteristically spry touch to yet another very different sort of movie than he's done before in the lively Me and Orson…

Review of That Evening Sun (2009)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 20 Dec 2009

Review of Up in the Air (2009)
