Review of The Paris Opera (2017)

By Nick Schager (2,294) for Village Voice (8,525) on 18 Oct 2017

Review of Te Ata (2017)

By Nick Schager (2,294) for Variety (12,700) on 16 Oct 2017

Review of Surviving Peace (2017)

By Nick Schager (2,294) for Village Voice (8,525) on 03 Oct 2017

Review of Last Flag Flying (2017)

By Nick Schager (2,294) for The Daily Beast (380) on 27 Sep 2017

By Nick Schager (2,294) for Variety (12,700) on 07 Sep 2017

Review of Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)

By Nick Schager (2,294) for The Daily Beast (380) on 30 Aug 2017
