Review of Tickled (2016)

By Michael Nordine (446) for TheWrap (3,203) on 14 Jun 2016

Tickled inspires many laughs throughout but, true to its subject, more and more of them are born of discomfort as it goes on — part of you…

Review of Traded (2016)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 07 Jun 2016

The film likens prostitution to a continuation of the slavery that was eradicated two decades earlier by a certain Proclamation, but never…

Review of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows (2016)

By Michael Nordine (446) for TheWrap (3,203) on 01 Jun 2016

Out of the Shadows stumbles from one set piece to the next, rarely offering viewers much reason to care in between, and its halfhearted attempts…

Review of The Wailing (2016)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 31 May 2016

That the film has so many partial reference points only makes the ultimate amalgamation stranger, as the chimeric whole can't be fully explained…

Review of X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)

By Michael Nordine (446) for City Pages, Minneapolis/St. Paul (157) on 24 May 2016

The rare comic-book film that, like its antagonist, absorbs the knowledge of its lesser peers and inspires a few moments of genuine awe…

Review of Kaili Blues (2016)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 18 May 2016

First-time writer-director Bi Gan and cinematographer Wang Tianxing infuse the imagery with a feeling at once otherworldly and familiar —…

Review of The Lobster (2015)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 10 May 2016

Lanthimos's consistently hilarious, borderline anti-humor slowly gives way to a romantic streak of surprising warmth…

Review of Pelé: Birth of a Legend (2016)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 10 May 2016

Co-directors Jeff and Michael Zimbalist stick to the playbook throughout, from typical moments of uplift to a Pelé cameo only slightly less…

Review of Mother's Day (1980)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 04 May 2016

By far the highest concentration of actual humor comes during the blooper reel over the end credits; free of the script’s saccharine constraints,…

Review of Mother's Day (2016)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 29 Apr 2016

It's fine that the makeshift trilogy (please, let it only be a trilogy) is a simple-minded ode to love meant to send everyone home happy…

Review of Mother's Day (2016)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 29 Apr 2016

By far the highest concentration of actual humor comes during the blooper reel over the end credits; free of the script’s saccharine constraints,…

Review of Pali Road (2016)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 26 Apr 2016

Chen's full-bodied commitment to her role adds something new to this familiar scenario, which also benefits from its idyllic island setting;…

Review of A Hologram for the King (2016)

By Michael Nordine (446) for TheWrap (3,203) on 20 Apr 2016

A Hologram for the King succeeds at putting us in Alan’s meandering headspace, but that doesn’t mean you’ll find his journey as meaningful…

Review of 13 Cameras (2016)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 13 Apr 2016

Mild schadenfreude aside, however, the film inspires almost no feeling at all — even the Friday the 13th movies bother giving the bad guy…

Review of Too Late (2016)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 29 Mar 2016

Like the hardboiled detectives of yore, Too Late ultimately gets the job done — even if it's in its own off-the-books way…

Review of Kill Your Friends (2015)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 28 Mar 2016

Steve's voiceover monologues and dealings with a detective investigating a murder are straight out of the Patrick Bateman playbook, but turning…

Review of Office (2015)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 22 Mar 2016

Wry and self-aware but never finger-wagging, Office looks back on an economic precipice and finds more humor and spirit than any other depiction…

Review of Office (2015)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 22 Mar 2016

Wry and self-aware but never finger-wagging, Office looks back on an economic precipice and finds more humor and spirit than any other depiction…

Review of Fastball (2016)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 22 Mar 2016

You wouldn't lose anything watching Fastball on ESPN rather than in the movie theater, but it does stand as further testament to baseball's…

Review of The Program (2015)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Village Voice (8,525) on 15 Mar 2016

All that's missing for Foster, usually so measured in his embodiment of difficult characters, are a monocle and twirled mustache…
