Review of House of Sand and Fog (2003)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 20 May 2007

The plot that follows, including the wretched young woman who lost the house, is of interest only insofar as Kingsley supports the structure…

Review of Good Night, and Good Luck. (2005)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 17 May 2007

Yet the McCarthy/Murrow conflict in the picture is not pressing enough--these days, anyway--to justify the considerable skill expended on it…

Review of Zodiac (2007)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 16 May 2007

The picture tries hard for addictive mystery, but it is full of scenes that promise insight and don't deliver…

Review of Rain Man (1988)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 15 May 2007

It's Hoffman's failure, though, that sinks the picture…

Review of Breakfast on Pluto (2005)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 07 May 2007

It is the central performance that holds us. Cillian Murphy glows…

Review of Land of the Blind (2006)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 01 Apr 2007

The dialogue creaks, all the more so since we know better than it does what it is going to say…

Review of Stage Beauty (2004)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 02 Mar 2007

Crudup is whole…

Review of A History of Violence (2005)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 01 Mar 2007

This sort of investigation has been done so masterfully by Sam Peckinpah in The Wild Bunch and Oliver Stone in Natural Born Killers that, in…

Review of Clean (2005)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 27 Feb 2007

Maggie Cheung, who was in Assayas's Irma Vep, plays Emily with a semi-detached feeling--observing the role as much as portraying it…

Review of Family Law (2006)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 09 Feb 2007

Burman is particularly good at the tiny details that become recognition points in daily patterns…

Review of I ♥ Huckabees (2004)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 15 Jan 2007

Where Russell wobbles in this screenplay, which he wrote with Jeff Baena, is not in his intent but that he omitted to make it funny…

Review of Infamous (2006)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 09 Jan 2007

McGrath says that he considers his film to be lighter in tone than TC 1, which is baffling. The reverse seems the case…

Review of The Secret Life of Words (2005)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 15 Dec 2006

Like Ceylan--like many a fine director--Coixet has made her film less as a drama than as the traversal of a state of mind, a mood…

Review of Mystic River (2003)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 24 Nov 2006

Little more than the distended first half of a twisty, dark Law & Order script…

Review of Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 04 Nov 2006

The picture is offering you a pact: you agree to be a kid again, in return for which Raiders will give you old-time movie thrills expressed…

Review of All the King's Men (2006)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 25 Oct 2006

The film isn't dreadful: it is just generally disappointing…

Review of All the King's Men (1983)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 25 Oct 2006

The film isn't dreadful: it is just generally disappointing…

Review of The Young Lieutenant (2005)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 25 Oct 2006

This is the fourth film directed and at least co-written by Beauvois…

Review of All the King's Men (1949)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 25 Oct 2006

The film isn't dreadful: it is just generally disappointing…

Review of Al Franken: God Spoke (2006)

By Stanley Kauffmann (447) for The New Republic (897) on 25 Oct 2006

This film by Nick Doob and Chris Hegedus forces us to make some decisions about him. For myself, I find him generally gross, in person and in manner…
