Review of Interstellar (2014)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 17 Nov 2014

[O]nce our explorers pass into another galaxy...things take on a new dimension of banality and the film, however magnificently conceived in…

Review of Force Majeure (2014)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 17 Nov 2014

[A] confident and provocative piece that, as I'm hardly the first critic to point out, you should think twice about choosing as a date movie…

Review of Foxcatcher (2014)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 14 Nov 2014

There's plenty of subtly handled excess to hold you aghast-and whichever way you slice, I maintain that yes, it is the damnedest sports movie…

Review of Charlie Countryman (2013)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Observer (UK) (2,398) on 03 Nov 2014

As for Shia, he's wildly self-indulgent and narcissistic: all puppy eyes, emoting and angsting like there's no tomorrow…

Review of Ouija (2014)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Observer (UK) (2,398) on 02 Nov 2014

The bumps and thumps are mechanical, the young stars insipid and the otherworldly entity the kids contact is called Doris…

Review of The Overnighters (2014)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Observer (UK) (2,398) on 02 Nov 2014

Acute portraiture - and for a sobering depiction of an America in crisis that looks shockingly close to the desperation of the 1930s…

Review of Horns (2013)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Observer (UK) (2,398) on 02 Nov 2014

Only in spurts does the film achieve an outre flavour of pop Gogol…

Review of Listen Up Philip (2014)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 19 Oct 2014

I haven't seen Alex Ross Perry's earlier films Impolex and The Color Wheel, but this makes me feel like catching up…

Review of Pride (2014)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 23 Sep 2014

Pride has a lot going for it-and the performances, especially [Bill] Nighy's, bring the film the classiness and nuance it needs…

Review of Stray Dogs (2014)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 17 Sep 2014

Tsai now makes films that transform the auditorium into a different kind of space, in which viewers become attentive, and self-consciously…

Review of Stray Dogs (2014)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 17 Sep 2014

Tsai now makes films that transform the auditorium into a different kind of space, in which viewers become attentive, and self-consciously…

Review of Wetlands (2013)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 17 Sep 2014

Yes, you could call Wetlands the anal anti-Amélie, but-although Wnendt is nowhere near as stylistically pedantic-this film has a certain Jeunet-like…

Review of Closed Curtain (2013)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 17 Sep 2014

The value of Closed Curtain is the very ineloquence of its cri de coeur…

Review of Starred Up (2014)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 15 Sep 2014

O'Connell-also impressive as a stranded soldier in the forthcoming '71-gives Starred Up the muscle and above all the emotional continuity that…

Review of A Master Builder (2014)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 14 Sep 2014

Filmed theater? Absolutely, but also, to my complete surprise, something else again…

Review of Frank (2014)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 14 Sep 2014

It's sweet, just pithy enough, and brings a touch of critical sanity to the question of insanity as performance-it's a film that, you might…

Review of Mood Indigo (2013)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 14 Sep 2014

Mood Indigo is an excessive, borderline-unwatchable folly, but it's hard not to admire - and even at moments, revel in - Gondry's demented enthusiasm…

Review of Abuse of Weakness (2013)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Film Comment Magazine (842) on 14 Sep 2014

Shot with clean, spare simplicity by the Dardennes' regular DP Alain Marcoen, this is a very simple work, almost prosaically so at times-as…

Review of The Expendables 3 (2014)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Observer (UK) (2,398) on 16 Aug 2014

If they're expendable, why won't they die…

Review of Planes: Fire & Rescue (2014)

By Jonathan Romney (434) for Observer (UK) (2,398) on 09 Aug 2014

Like Cars, this is essentially funny-animal animation with chrome and aluminium instead of fur…
