Review of I Saw the Devil (2010)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 01 Mar 2011

Never good with nuance, Kim is a beast with disarming imagery but has few resonating ideas, leaving the domino-tumble of brutality to become…

Review of Runaway Jury (2003)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 26 Feb 2011

Not nearly enough time is spent in court--that is, on the movie's ostensible subject…

Review of Crash (2005)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 15 Feb 2011

Full of well-observed supporting riffs, Crash might've accumulated more frisson had it cast a clearer eye on how social tension actually plays…

Review of The Illusionist (1901)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Boston Phoenix (1,372) on 27 Jan 2011

In all, it's a charming chanson in a minor key, and if you zero in on Chomet's visual grace and his blooming cinephilia, then it's more than enough…

Review of The Illusionist (2010)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Boston Phoenix (1,372) on 27 Jan 2011

In all, it's a charming chanson in a minor key, and if you zero in on Chomet's visual grace and his blooming cinephilia, then it's more than enough…

Review of The Illusionist (2009)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Boston Phoenix (1,372) on 27 Jan 2011

In all, it's a charming chanson in a minor key, and if you zero in on Chomet's visual grace and his blooming cinephilia, then it's more than enough…

Review of Swordfish (2001)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 05 Jan 2011

The story -- is just what fills in the gaps between slow-motion fireballs, Matrix-style frozen mayhem, and Halle Berry's notoriously undraped breasts…

Review of Americatown (2011)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 04 Jan 2011

The vibe rarely expands beyond dozy Comedy Central skits sprinkled with ironic cliches rather than jokes, 99 percent earnest slo-mo quirk and…

Review of Children of Heaven (1997)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 22 Dec 2010

Clumsily staged (a bike accident any 15-year-old Super-8 maven could’ve cut better), lit like a soap opera, and acted with all the bribed…

Review of Lolita (1997)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 12 Dec 2010

There's precious few yucks, for one thing, but you can't say you're surprised that the astonishingly humorless Lyne hadn't noticed or cared…

Review of Garden of Eden (2008)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 07 Dec 2010

Director John Irvin, whose hapless 40-plus-year résumé runs from early Schwarzenegger to late Harold Pinter, never gets in the way, but the…

Review of Vertical Limit (2000)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 06 Dec 2010

Vertical Limit's real problem is its digitized sheen…

Review of Incident at Loch Ness (2004)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 14 Nov 2010

The film slowly sheds its convincing identity as nonfiction and becomes a cruel parody of making-of docs, studio-movie pandering, and showbiz…

Review of Thomas and the Magic Railroad (2000)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Mr. Showbiz (475) on 31 Oct 2010

Disheveled tripe pieced together with the good intentions…

Review of 3000 Miles to Graceland (2001)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 21 Oct 2010

Costner's not a mannered showboat, and what we get isn't a riff—it's a semi-oblivious glimpse of bitter outlaw banality…

Review of Kuroneko (1968)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 20 Oct 2010

Nippo-Gothic horror fables have a long tradition of proto-feminist outrage... Kaneto Shindô's Kuroneko may take the cake…

Review of Songcatcher (2001)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 17 Oct 2010

The commonest sort of cultural pasteurization…

Review of Fellini: I'm a Born Liar (2003)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 09 Oct 2010

How enlightening you find Damian Pettigrew's obsessive film depends on whether you're as adoring of Fellini as he was of himself; for the devoted,…

Review of Four Brothers (2005)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Village Voice (8,525) on 23 Sep 2010

What results is unremarkably schizophrenic--half gritty sojourn into the inner-city furnace, half Hollywood brain death…

Review of Hollow Man (2000)

By Michael Atkinson (678) for Mr. Showbiz (475) on 19 Sep 2010

An eminently watchable B-movie nightmare…
