By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 16 Mar 2017

Review of The Other Half (2016)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 08 Mar 2017

Maslany and Cullen's characters seem intended to be psychologically realistic, but they're only as complex as The Other Half's surface-deep style…

By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 06 Mar 2017

Indian melodrama Rangoon somehow manages to be emotionally resonant despite being overstuffed…

Review of Headshot (2016)

Review of VooDoo (2017)

By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 24 Feb 2017

Is it good? Uh, well, kind of. Does it make sense? Hmm, er, ask me another. Is it worth seeing? Oh, absolutely…

Review of The Great Wall (2016)

By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 17 Feb 2017

The Great Wall has significant problems — namely with Damon and sidekick Pedro Pascal's lack of bromantic chemistry — but chief among its…

Review of Don't Knock Twice (2017)

By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 03 Feb 2017

Review of Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back (2017)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 02 Feb 2017

Wu and Lin have great chemistry, but only because Chow was smart enough to reimagine Journey to the West as a rare character-driven big-budget…

Review of Worlds Apart (2017)

Review of Arsenal (2017)

By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 06 Jan 2017

When Cage works with a less decisive director—or just one that's content to let Cage do whatever he wants—he seems to forget what acting…

Review of German Concentration Camps Factual Survey (2017)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 05 Jan 2017

German Concentration Camps Factual Survey may not teach us today much that Schindler's List, your local rabbi, or a quick Google search can't,…

Review of Assassin's Creed (2016)

By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 21 Dec 2016

Unlike the actual video game, Assassin's Creed isn't ridiculous and fun, but rather ridiculous and turgid…

Review of Contract to Kill (2016)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 07 Dec 2016

Even the most masochistic filmgoers should avoid Waxman and Seagal's latest collaboration, a boring vanity project that doesn't even competently…

Review of The Eyes of My Mother (2016)

By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 02 Dec 2016

Arthouse horror flick The Eyes of My Mother actively alienates viewers by presenting episodes in a woman's life from a post-human, God-like…

Review of The Duelist (2016)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 01 Dec 2016

What's most arresting is the way Mizgirev's vision of 1860s Russia shines through in the perspiration on Champagne goblets, the flicker of…
