Review of The Drop (1965)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 11 Sep 2014

Bob's world seems measured in the call of others for him to do something, his name incurred the way you'd call out to a devoted if beat-down…

Review of The Drop (2006)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 11 Sep 2014

Bob's world seems measured in the call of others for him to do something, his name incurred the way you'd call out to a devoted if beat-down…

Review of The Drop (2014)

Review of The Last of Robin Hood (2013)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 03 Sep 2014

Kline plays Flynn as a concatenation of jitters, fearful not only of fading but of death; Fanning is steely yet bright-eyed, and Sarandon flutters…

Review of Starred Up (2014)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 03 Sep 2014

Mackenzie's 8th feature demonstrates the vivid, idiosyncratic storytelling fluency... of his most recent movies…

Review of Love Is Strange (2014)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 26 Aug 2014

And the bravura final 15 minutes: dear God in Manhattan! ... one lyrical, cinematic wallop after another…

Review of Calvary (2014)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 12 Aug 2014

Calvary is full-to-bursting with a raft of idiosyncratic characters and philosophical conflicts and the current crisis in the Church and idiomatic…

Review of Venus in Fur (2013)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 12 Aug 2014

As the pair comport themselves between the play's text and their differing interpretation, Polanski ruthlessly makes unsentimental play of…

Review of Half of a Yellow Sun (2013)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 29 Jul 2014

The actors shine: Thandie Newton, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Anika Noni Rose are all splendidly in their moment…

Review of Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 29 Jul 2014

Gunn manages to thread abrupt violence and casual malice into the huge expanses of the outright comedy and fine sarcasm of Guardians…

Review of I Origins (2014)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 24 Jul 2014

I Origins blushes with swirls of sensory extravagance, of emotional extremes, of drenching passions and bathetic loss…

Review of Magic in the Moonlight (2014)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 23 Jul 2014

As for the screenplay, it's a full-on fumble. Doddering, even, and distant from any representation of plausible human behavior…

Review of A Most Wanted Man (2014)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 22 Jul 2014

The first time we see Hoffman's hand graze Hoss' shoulder, it's almost like a bomb has silently exploded, so graceful and engaged is this so-small,…

Review of Happy Christmas (2014)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 22 Jul 2014

[T]he sparky, so-small Kendrick blooms further when called upon a couple of times to speak some really lovely, lilting filth…

Review of Speed Racer (2008)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 17 Jul 2014

It seems less a commercial strategy by the Wachowskis as a philosophical one: to incorporate as many forms of communication and color-blind…

Review of Boyhood (1951)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 15 Jul 2014

Boyhood is perfectly imperfect, and surely not the last exploration of feature filmmaking as the ideal form to encapsulate duration and unities…

Review of Boyhood (2014)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 15 Jul 2014

Boyhood is perfectly imperfect, and surely not the last exploration of feature filmmaking as the ideal form to encapsulate duration and unities…

Review of Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 11 Jul 2014

But what will anyone talk about…

Review of Snowpiercer (2013)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 03 Jul 2014

You could reduce the narrative elements to Das Boot meets Metropolis, but that's saying too much and too little…

Review of Jackpot (2012)

By Ray Pride (544) for Newcity (539) on 25 Jun 2014

Capable, candy-colored, often giddily gruesome Euro-action from Norway, replete with lottery winnings, double-crosses, discreet vivisection…
