Review of Carrie (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Screen International (2,241) on 16 Oct 2013

There doesn't seem to be a pronounced rationale, beyond commercial reward, for this relatively undistinguished remake…

Review of The Network (2013)

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

Orner exhibits a deep and sincere passion for her surrogate subjects and what she clearly believes to be the balm of this unique 'edu-tainment,…

Review of The Network (2013)

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

Orner exhibits a deep and sincere passion for her surrogate subjects and what she clearly believes to be the balm of this unique 'edu-tainment,…

Review of Men at Lunch (2013)

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

Men at Lunch loses sight of its lede and fumbles away viewer interest. The photo itself says more than this muddled documentary…

Review of Escape from Tomorrow (2013)

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

Part black-and-white student thesis film, part subversive attack on corporate-peddled American fantasy, Moore's film casts a spell -- until…

Review of Cassadaga (2011)

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

Cassadaga flirts with conventions of both paranormal horror films and more traditional serial killer thrillers, but is marked by listless characters…

Review of Broadway Idiot (2013)

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

A film about both [creative] challenges and choices... Broadway Idiot does a good job of tapping into the source material's thick veins of feeling…

Review of Linsanity (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 08 Oct 2013

Commingling tabloid frenzy, familial roots, underdog uplift, racial identity and nose-to-the-grindstone doggedness, Linsanity is a film with…

Review of CBGB (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 07 Oct 2013

Yet another film from Miller, starring Rickman, with an engaging protagonist and an interesting backdrop or pitch, but little sense of psychological…

Review of Gravity (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 03 Oct 2013

An immersive masterwork -- a game-changer, both for the sci-fi genre and Hollywood filmmaking as a whole…

Review of GMO OMG (2013)

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

Recognizing that minds are changed as much through the heart as a litany of facts, GMO OMG manages to provoke important self-reflection in viewers…

Review of Money for Nothing: Inside the Federal Reserve (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 20 Sep 2013

There's a gut-punch sadness to the movie -- a melancholic dawning…

Review of Battle of the Year (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Screen International (2,241) on 20 Sep 2013

Eschewing shaded characterization and often basic sense, while establishing what should be the high-water mark for most crotch-grabbing in…

Review of Hell Baby (2013)

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

A slog through improv run amok -- a film that seems allergic toward anything that might be construed as a legitimate throughline, lest that…

Review of Hawking (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shared Darkness (279) on 15 Sep 2013

Smartly crafted. An engaging, inspirational portrait of as unlikely an iconic figure as the last half-century has produced…

Review of Everyone Must Die! (2012)

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

Nothing in the way of performance, execution or imagination to distinguish it from the attempted giallo homage you and your stoner pals put…

Review of Mara (2013)

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

The story here is yawningly thin and the acting immature and not fully formed at best, which immediately and effectively undercuts any attempted…

Review of American Made Movie (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 13 Sep 2013

Mildly engaging for armchair politicos, but generally more successful as only a diagnostic statement of basic socioeconomic condition than…

Review of And While We Were Here (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 13 Sep 2013

Imagine a boring, gender-swapped, totally arty and pretentious version of the travelogue-mini-film-within-a-film focusing on Kip Pardue's character…

Review of A Teacher (2013)

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

Despite a deeply invested lead performance, A Teacher gives off strong vapors of phoniness; it's an exercise in lazy minimalism…
