Review of Fresh Dressed (2015)

By Nathan Rabin (1,078) for AV Club (2,778) on 24 Jun 2015

It’s about just about everything, so while the subject might seem niche it’s actually so broad and expansive the film strains to cover…

Review of Advantageous (2015)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for AV Club (2,778) on 24 Jun 2015

As in a lot of good sci-fi, the movie is set in a particular world, but driven by the characters that inhabit it…

Review of A Little Chaos (2015)

By A.a. Dowd (854) for AV Club (2,778) on 24 Jun 2015

Watching A Little Chaos, one might assume that its makers were dramatically limited by the details of Le Notre’s life, when it was really…

Review of Escobar: Paradise Lost (2014)

By Mike D'angelo (730) for AV Club (2,778) on 24 Jun 2015

Escobar: Paradise Lost employs this structure in a way that divides the movie neatly in half: one hour of tedious expository flashback followed…

Review of Batkid Begins (2015)

By Keith Uhlich (870) for AV Club (2,778) on 24 Jun 2015

Miles treats this whole experience with an affectingly genuine innocence—something that the filmmakers, and many of the participants, seem…

Review of The Little Death (2014)

By Mike D'angelo (730) for AV Club (2,778) on 24 Jun 2015

The Little Death never feels remotely of a piece, and is likely to find its proper audience months from now when the individual sketches show…

Review of Big Game (2014)

By Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (836) for AV Club (2,778) on 24 Jun 2015

Big Game fails to live up to the kookiness of this set-up. Instead, it opts for ’90s action movie clichés and generic coming-of-age-isms…

Review of A Deadly Adoption (2015)

By Joshua Alston (8) for AV Club (2,778) on 21 Jun 2015

Adoption is a fun oddity instead of the minor cultural moment it could have been…

Review of Burying the Ex (2014)

By Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (836) for AV Club (2,778) on 17 Jun 2015

In spite of its modest running time, Burying The Ex feels stretched thin; it takes a good 35 minutes to get going, only kicking into gear once…

Review of Dope (2015)

By Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (836) for AV Club (2,778) on 17 Jun 2015

Dope has more characters and subplots than it knows what to do with, and its performances are all over the place, ranging from Clemons’ and…

Review of Infinitely Polar Bear (2014)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for AV Club (2,778) on 17 Jun 2015

In Infinitely Polar Bear, Ruffalo attempts to put a recognizable, charismatic, slightly worn face on manic depression…

Review of Inside Out (2015)

By A.a. Dowd (854) for AV Club (2,778) on 16 Jun 2015

Bucking the current company mandate of churning out lesser sequels and prequels, it’s not just a brilliant idea, but maybe the most conceptually…

Review of The Tribe (2016)

By A.a. Dowd (854) for AV Club (2,778) on 16 Jun 2015

One reason that The Tribe “works” is that it presents a story so simple and familiar, so cliché even, that one doesn’t need to understand…

Review of Set Fire to the Stars (2014)

By Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (836) for AV Club (2,778) on 10 Jun 2015

An exercise in tasteful pointlessness, shot in flat black and white and scored (by Gruff Rhys, of all people) with tinkling piano and sawing…

Review of I Am Here (2015)

By Adam Nayman (350) for AV Club (2,778) on 10 Jun 2015

By the time the film empties its inventory of shock tactics and reaches its (too calculated) ambiguous conclusion, we're not sure if Maria…

Review of Live from New York! (2015)

By Jesse Hassenger (800) for AV Club (2,778) on 10 Jun 2015

Of course, a single documentary can’t cover everything, but this one’s slim but entertaining 80 minutes suggests that Nguyen erred on the…

Review of Soaked in Bleach (2015)

By Josh Modell (41) for AV Club (2,778) on 10 Jun 2015

If it doesn’t lead people to believe that Cobain was murdered, it might achieve its secondary goals — to at least nudge them toward the…

Review of Me and Earl and the Dying Girl (2015)

By Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (836) for AV Club (2,778) on 10 Jun 2015

A feature-length tribute to great directors with no direction of its own, his second feature is the kind of self-consciously quirky, slapdash…

Review of The Wolfpack (2015)

By Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (836) for AV Club (2,778) on 10 Jun 2015

The Wolfpack is perhaps too reluctant to pursue lines of inquiry; what starts as a nonfiction mood piece grows frustratingly opaque as the…
