Review of Unexpected (2015)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 20 Jul 2015

Unexpected isn't about, but rather a product of, class-based condescension in America…

Review of Alleluia (2014)

By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 16 Jul 2015

Oppressively bleak mood piece Alléluia is a horror film for people who like to be scared by a grim, joyless and thoroughly depressing character…

Review of The Gallows (2015)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 08 Jul 2015

The Gallows is only good enough to make you wish its creators did something novel with its formulaic style, plot, and characterizations…

Review of Stung (2015)

By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 02 Jul 2015

Until tepid animal-attack flick Stung, I had never thought to wish for a horror movie protagonist to not be rewarded with a make-out session…

Review of Into the Grizzly Maze (2015)

By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 29 Jun 2015

Into the Grizzly Maze is bad where it counts, and tedious throughout…

Review of Rubble Kings (2015)

By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 18 Jun 2015

Had Nicholson taken advantage of Melendez and Suarez's seemingly easy-going nature, Rubble Kings might have been great…

Review of The Face of an Angel (2014)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 15 Jun 2015

The Face of an Angel may not be like any other whodunit you've seen, but it's also only superficially smarter than the genre it defines itself…

Review of The Stranger (2014)

By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 11 Jun 2015

While The Stranger is bad, the fact that it makes you wait and wait for its excessively dismal perspective to be justified by a measly little…

Review of Dreadnaught (1981)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 09 Jun 2015

A bizarre, imaginative kung fu film whose talented cast helps transcend its clashing generic conventions…

Review of Insidious: Chapter 3 (2015)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 03 Jun 2015

Tepid ghost story Insidious: Chapter 3 tries and fails to emphasize character-driven drama over cheap, jump-scare-intensive thrills…

Review of A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Reflecting on Existence (2014)

By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 02 Jun 2015

It’s a series of comedic sketches about people who are too self-involved to empathize with each other…

Review of Sunset Edge (2015)

By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 28 May 2015

A coming-of-age drama that's also Southern Gothic ghost story, is an unusual, ambitious failure, mostly because the film's hyper-naturalistic…

Review of Unfreedom (2015)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 25 May 2015

Though it starts off as a cautiously optimistic conversion narrative, the pseudo-progressive, banned-in-India LGBT drama Unfreedom quickly…

Review of Barely Lethal (2015)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 25 May 2015

Barely Lethal's combination of bawdy humor and earnest affection for its high-school-aged protagonists is surprisingly well-balanced…

Review of Absolution (2015)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 19 May 2015

Absolution is an unconvincing showcase for Byron Mann, a new action star to whom Steven Seagal halfheartedly tries to pass a torch…

Review of Sunshine Superman (2015)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 18 May 2015

You may not leave Sunshine Superman wanting to emulate Carl and Jean, but you will feel like you've vicariously bonded with them…

Review of Absolution (2015)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 18 May 2015

Absolution is an unconvincing showcase for Byron Mann, a new action star to whom Steven Seagal halfheartedly tries to pass a torch…

Review of It's Such a Beautiful Day (2012)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 17 May 2015

Warped keyhole-size images stack atop one another in a Frankenstein-ian collage that evokes the films of Terrence Malick, David Lynch, Stan…

Review of Skin Trade (2014)

By Simon Abrams (730) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 10 May 2015

This movie's makers haven't met a formula cliché that they don't like…

Review of Infini (2015)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 05 May 2015

Infini doesn't go anywhere that superior science fiction films haven't already, but for a while, it's exciting enough to feel brand-new…
