Review of The Frontier (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 10 Sep 2014

Co-writer/director Matt Rabinowitz doesn’t artfully withhold information so much as lay it all on the table a bit earlier than he might have…

Review of The Drop (1965)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Willamette Week (516) on 09 Sep 2014

You're always wondering whether there's something slightly off about Bob, or maybe even a brutality to him that he's working to keep at bay…

Review of Rich Hill (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Willamette Week (516) on 09 Sep 2014

Made with the slickness of Clint Eastwood's 'It's Halftime in America' commercial and about as substantive…

Review of The Drop (2006)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Willamette Week (516) on 09 Sep 2014

You're always wondering whether there's something slightly off about Bob, or maybe even a brutality to him that he's working to keep at bay…

Review of The Drop (2014)

Review of But Always (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 07 Sep 2014

It's possible that there's a worse movie tangentially related to 9-11 than But Always, though I don't advise seeking one out…

Review of Wild (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Slant Magazine (8,298) on 31 Aug 2014

Unremarkable films propped up by exceptional lead performances are as much a certainty of the autumnal season as yellow leaves and pumpkin patches…

Review of The Imitation Game (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Indiewire (3,631) on 30 Aug 2014

It's a reserved, almost conservative performance, and in holding so much back so much of the time, Cumberbatch makes his few outward displays…

Review of Kundo: Age of the Rampant (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 25 Aug 2014

With its harmonica-heavy score and rousing shots of these horse-riding antiheroes, Kundo's early and late scenes resemble a Western as much…

Review of Magic in the Moonlight (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Willamette Week (516) on 05 Aug 2014

Much of this reads as wish fulfillment for Allen, who's spent half a century detailing his fear of mortality…

Review of The Purge: Anarchy (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 17 Jul 2014

Grillo's performance will make you wonder why he didn't start headlining movies like this before turning 50; his is the soft-spoken kind of…

Review of Wish I Was Here (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Willamette Week (516) on 15 Jul 2014

Braff claims to have turned to Kickstarter to avoid financier interference, but nothing in Wish I Was Here feels out of the norm for an Indiewood…

Review of The Battered Bastards of Baseball (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 07 Jul 2014

That Battered Bastards is practically a hagiography doesn't negate the fact that it has more anti-establishment joie de vivre in any given…

Review of Tammy (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Willamette Week (516) on 01 Jul 2014

If you've seen one Melissa McCarthy movie, you've seen them all…

Review of Think Like a Man Too (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 18 Jun 2014

Returning director Tim Story lays out the narrative wares with all the subtlety of a neon sign on the Strip, not that the screenplay from Keith…

Review of Northern Light (2013)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Willamette Week (516) on 17 Jun 2014

You feel as though you've been given the keys to a town that trusts you to look around at your own pace and turn off the light on your way…

Review of Man from Reno (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for indieWire (3,631) on 17 Jun 2014

Like his two leads, Boyle maintains a matter-of-factness that allows us to survey the evidence and reach our own conclusions…

Review of No Tears for the Dead (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 16 Jun 2014

There are more tears than the title lets on, and even more blood, but it's a reason to truly be invested that's missing from No Tears for the…

Review of Comet (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for indieWire (3,631) on 15 Jun 2014

There’s an actual pulse and beating heart to Comet; it feels vibrant, alive…

Review of Edge of Tomorrow (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Willamette Week (516) on 03 Jun 2014

Its recursive conceit often seems poised to devolve into a cheap gimmick, but, much like Cage, it consistently makes slight course corrections…
