Review of Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

It's also a typical Ferrell vehicle, meaning it has his usual flat delivery and inside jokes…

Review of Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny (2006)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

If you put your brain in park, it's all vaguely amusing, in a silly fashion, much like a Ramones song, three chords of dumb fun that blows…

Review of Our Daily Bread (2009)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

This near-wordless film depicts industrialized agriculture in all its mundane horror. As E…

Review of My Country, My Country (2006)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

…

Review of In Vanda's Room (2001)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

…

Review of Volver (2009)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

This is a woman's picture in the best sense of the term, anchored by bravura turns from Penelope Cruz and Carmen Maura…

Review of Mrs Palfrey at The Claremont (2005)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

Unfortunately, much of the story is thin ice beneath her feet. It threatens to buckle beneath sheer improbability…

Review of Darkon (2006)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

It might sound ridiculous, and occasionally it is, but there is also something deeply moving about people's desire for experience that is bigger…

Review of A Cock and Bull Story (2005)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

Films where you suddenly hear yourself laughing, where you leave the theatre a little weakened by the violence of your own hilarity, are extremely…

Review of Son of Man (2006)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

This film is stunningly beautiful, and the fact that Jesus' experiences fit so perfectly into the contemporary black township points to the…

Review of Volver (2006)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

This is a woman's picture in the best sense of the term, anchored by bravura turns from Penelope Cruz and Carmen Maura…

Review of The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada (2005)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

Despite the occasional gruesomely gleeful tone of this film, (you may find yourself laughing in inappropriate places) it has an odd dignity,…

Review of Vanishing Point (1971)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

If you thought the car parts in Tarantino's Death Proof provided the only worthwhile section of Grindhouse, Vanishing Point is the real deal…

Review of Fido (2006)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

Fido tries very hard to keep the tone light, but it doesn't succeed in meshing hilarity and horror: the more disturbing ideas it's messing…

Review of Why We Fight (2005)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

If the director occasionally strays into bombast,…

Review of loudQUIETloud: A Film About the Pixies (2006)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

loudQUIETloud is a scream, and easily one of the better films about the business of rocking out…

Review of A Scanner Darkly (2006)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

The film is beautiful to look at, rotoscoped with heavy black lines surrounding graphic blocks of colour, but can you draw any conclusions…

Review of Battle in Heaven (2005)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

Despite the unpleasant looking sex, there is something about these scenes that is strangely moving…

Review of Air Guitar Nation (2006)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

It isn't so much the battle of the one-man-bands that is so compelling, as the journey itself, as sublime as it is ridiculous…

Review of The Puffy Chair (2006)

By Dorothy Woodend (313) for The Tyee (British Columbia) (313) on 22 Aug 2017

Made on a shoestring by the Duplass brothers, it's a sweetly quirky story about two brothers, one increasingly fed-up girlfriend and a big…
