By Dominick Mayer (133) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 26 May 2015

Review of Tomorrowland (2015)

By Dominick Mayer (133) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 20 May 2015

Tomorrowland is so utterly committed to ol' Uncle Walt's senses of human endeavor and wonder that it becomes a poignant bit of nostalgia…

Review of Heaven Knows What (2015)

By Dominick Mayer (133) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 07 May 2015

Heaven Knows What is a disorienting, often brutal, haunting film, as emotionally naked and deeply empathetic a portrait of addiction as modern…

Review of Get Hard (2015)

By Dominick Mayer (133) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 17 Mar 2015

Review of Lost River (2015)

By Dominick Mayer (133) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 16 Mar 2015

After a strong, visually striking, resonant start, Lost River quickly descends into a fugue of memorable imagery signifying little and regularly…

Review of The Final Girls (2015)

By Dominick Mayer (133) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 14 Mar 2015

Review of Hellions (2015)

By Dominick Mayer (133) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 02 Feb 2015

Review of Welcome to Leith (2015)

By Dominick Mayer (133) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 30 Jan 2015

Welcome to Leith posits a scenario that could happen in virtually any rust belt town. This is its disquieting power…

Review of Eden (2015)

By Dominick Mayer (133) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 30 Jan 2015

Eden is as much about the pains of maturation as it is about the very specific time period and scene in which it occurs…

Review of Me and Earl and the Dying Girl (2015)

By Dominick Mayer (133) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 26 Jan 2015

Films that look and feel like this one have become as perennial as summer action movies, but they're rarely this moving, this resonant, and…

Review of Cop Car (2015)

By Dominick Mayer (133) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 26 Jan 2015

In no small part because of the film's setting, it almost begins to resemble what No Country for Old Men would've looked like if produced by…

Review of The Bronze (2016)

By Dominick Mayer (133) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 24 Jan 2015

Review of Annabelle (2014)

By Dominick Mayer (133) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 13 Jan 2015
