Review of In a Better World (2010)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 31 Mar 2011

While it features a few powerful moments and impressive cinematography, the film manages to say nothing new about its themes and does so in…

Review of Cracks (2009)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 29 Mar 2011

Cracks only strays from the boarding school genre's playbook when it's entering questionable territory, making for a picture that's easily…

Review of Cracks (2007)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 29 Mar 2011

Cracks only strays from the boarding school genre's playbook when it's entering questionable territory, making for a picture that's easily…

Review of Miral (2010)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 28 Mar 2011

The director's affection for its subject matter is obvious throughout, but while Miral may succeed as an ode to its muse, it will disappoint…

Review of Black Death (2010)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 28 Mar 2011

Review of Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives (2010)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 03 Mar 2011

It's that rarity in any medium, a totally unique work of art, and that it's a bit of a mess doesn't detract much from how mesmerizing of an…

Review of Of Gods and Men (2010)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 28 Feb 2011

Beauvois tells the story he wants to beautifully, and it's a success in that it shows us a depiction of the monks that doesn't feel exploitative,…

Review of Vanishing on 7th Street (2010)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 18 Feb 2011

the shadow-puppet apocalypse exists outside of explanations, or indeed logic of any kind. So does Vanishing on 7th Street…

Review of Carancho (2010)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 11 Feb 2011

The movie's recommendation has to come with a grain of salt, but most of Carancho is still intelligent and thrilling enough that it's work…

Review of The Housemaid (2010)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 21 Jan 2011

Unless you feel compelled to see yet again what happens when a man has an affair with his servant, check out the original instead…

Review of The Company Men (2010)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 21 Jan 2011

Rather than showing us an empathetic portrait of what it's like to live through such a hard time in America, Company Men shows us a series…

Review of Rabbit Hole (2010)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 27 Dec 2010

It's not a documentary, but Rabbit Hole is one of the most true films to be made in a long time, a beautiful tribute to those coping with loss…

Review of Somewhere (2010)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 23 Dec 2010

Coppola really believed in the content here, and while she needs to tone down her metaphors and return to more realistic characters, her actors…

Review of The Fighter (2010)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 20 Dec 2010

Sure, it's an exceedingly simple movie, and it's easy to dismiss as just another sports flick about overcoming odds, but it's also an exceedingly…

Review of Black Swan (2010)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 02 Dec 2010

The film still offers up simple thrills, but it falls well short of the greatness to which it aspires…

Review of You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger (2010)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 01 Nov 2010

While Tall Dark can be a tad stilted, taking place as it does in Allen's fictionalized universe, most of it functions so smoothly it makes…

Review of 8: The Mormon Proposition (2010)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 14 Jul 2010

The film also fails to take into account the many other factors in play during the 2008 election, narrowing events down to one all-encompassing…

Review of The Square (2008)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 25 May 2010

The movie's protagonists (and all of its supporting characters) are reprehensible people, and Roberts' performance is fascinatingly uncharismatic,…

Review of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2009)

By Sean Gandert (81) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 18 Mar 2010
