Review of The Island President (2012)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 26 Mar 2012

The Island President also shows how the most high-minded idealists inevitably become deal-makers: The toothless agreement eventually ratified…

Review of The Hunger Games (2012)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 20 Mar 2012

Like the pacing of the novel, the film, even at almost two and a half hours, moves briskly, continuously drawing us in…

Review of 21 Jump Street (2012)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 13 Mar 2012

Though these mismatched cops bounce well off each other, Tatum, in his first comedic lead role, is the better performer, both more riotous…

Review of Friends with Kids (2012)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 06 Mar 2012

Just as Friends With Kids compares unfavorably to Westfeldt's earlier effort, her cast members' previous projects further highlight this film's…

Review of Sound of Noise (2010)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 06 Mar 2012

More an intriguing premise than a successful film, the Malmö-set Sound of Noise, about a group of musical terrorists, quickly loses its novelty…

Review of Project X (2012)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 03 Mar 2012

There's a midget in the oven! is about as inspired as the dialogue and set pieces get in this queasy-making entertainment…

Review of Project X (1987)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 03 Mar 2012

There's a midget in the oven! is about as inspired as the dialogue and set pieces get in this queasy-making entertainment…

Review of Boy (2010)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 28 Feb 2012

E.T., Musical Youth, and Shogun also turn up, but these pop-culture signifiers aren't enough to make up for the lack of a plot (or even a purpose)…

Review of Boy (2014)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 28 Feb 2012

E.T., Musical Youth, and Shogun also turn up, but these pop-culture signifiers aren't enough to make up for the lack of a plot (or even a purpose)…

Review of Boy (2011)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 28 Feb 2012

E.T., Musical Youth, and Shogun also turn up, but these pop-culture signifiers aren't enough to make up for the lack of a plot (or even a purpose)…

Review of The Heretics (2009)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 07 Feb 2012

For a movement that was fundamentally leaderless, Braderman's film gives its participants an opportunity to rightfully claim: We thought we…

Review of Journey 2: The Mysterious Island (2012)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 07 Feb 2012

The film is endurable owing solely to Johnson, a veteran of bad kids' movies whose sense of when to dial up the charm in such a generic, soulless…

Review of The Woman in Black (2012)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 02 Feb 2012

If director James Watkins's second film is about as scary as the haunted house your big cousins made in the basement, Radcliffe, as widowed…

Review of Carol Channing: Larger Than Life (2012)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 31 Jan 2012

Dori Berinstein's desultory, fawning profile of the nonagenarian performer devotes many of its padded 88 minutes to Channing's greatest success,…

Review of Big Miracle (2012)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 31 Jan 2012

While rooting for the marine mammals (and wishing for more footage of them - and even of their animatronic incarnations), your heart will also…

Review of One for the Money (2012)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 27 Jan 2012

Making even more appearances than the rodent is the Big Gulp; the lady bounty hunter is constantly consuming junk - though at least when Heigl…

Review of Sing Your Song (2012)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 10 Jan 2012

Produced by his youngest daughter, Gina, this profile of Harry Belafonte, foregrounding the 84-year-old actor and singer's political activism,…

Review of Joyful Noise (2012)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 10 Jan 2012

Speaking of camp, the diva battle teased in the trailer for Joyful Noise between its two stars, Queen Latifah and Dolly Parton, flatlines,…

Review of Domain (2012)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 10 Jan 2012

Dalle, with a mouth that could devour the world, unravels inexorably but with decadent dignity, and Chiha's singular film never relies on cliché…

Review of Lula, the Son of Brazil (2010)

By Melissa Anderson (387) for Village Voice (8,525) on 10 Jan 2012

Forget Son of Brazil: This syrupy origin story/biopic on the nation's beloved reformist president, whose second term ended in 2010, should…
