Review of Napoleon Dynamite (2004)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 06 Jan 2013

Review of The Assassination of Richard Nixon (2004)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 06 Jan 2013

Review of Promised Land (2012)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 03 Jan 2013

Review of Django Unchained (2012)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 03 Jan 2013

The film doesn't play it safe, so neither will I. Instead, I'll say that it finds Mr…

Review of Derailed (2005)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 30 Dec 2012

Much of the second half is spent waiting for the other shoe to drop, though you don't have to have 20/20 vision in order to see the big twist…

Review of Les Misérables (2012)

Review of The Situation (2007)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 21 Dec 2012

Though Philip Haas's digitally shot film has the firsthand immediacy of such nonfictional docs as Iraq in Fragments and Gunner Palace, its…

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 21 Dec 2012

The pretext of the movie, which was directed in broadbrush-cartoon style by Anne Fletcher from a coarse-textured script by Dan Fogelman, is…

Review of On the Road (2012)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 20 Dec 2012

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 20 Dec 2012

Jack Reacher, which Christopher McQuarrie directed from his adaptation of a Lee Child crime novel, is not just another dumb thriller…

Review of Amour (2012)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 20 Dec 2012

Michael Haneke's French-language Amour, a perfect film about intertwined lives, proceeds at its own pace, and breathes so deeply that it takes…

Review of Zero Dark Thirty (2012)

By Joe Morgenstern (2,395) for Wall Street Journal (3,071) on 20 Dec 2012
