Review of Irreversible (2002)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Entertainment Today (201) on 10 Mar 2003

Whereas Memento also actually delved into the human brain's relationship to humanity and whether 'reality' as we know it lies in something…

Review of All the Real Girls (2003)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Entertainment Today (201) on 24 Feb 2003

Girls has small and simple charms, but the movie succumbs to the combined weight of its preoccupations with non-hurried, 'honest' interactions…

Review of The Life of David Gale (2003)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Entertainment Today (201) on 24 Feb 2003

A half-baked polemic wrapped around a procedural thriller, The Life of David Gale is meticulously researched fury delivered in bite-size chocolates…

Review of The Beach (2000)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Entertainment Today (201) on 17 Feb 2003

Three-fifths of a great movie sunk by a crucial tonal misstep. A cross between Lord of the Flies, Swiss Family Robinson and Apocalypse Now…

Review of Bandits (1987)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Entertainment Today (201) on 17 Feb 2003

The Odd Couple meets Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Fairly fresh and fun, if ultimately fleeting entertainment…

Review of Gerry (2002)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Entertainment Today (201) on 17 Feb 2003

A bold but barren and unrewarding art house stunt, Gerry's aggressively minimalist marriage of form and content comes off as bizarrely angry…

Review of Beautiful Creatures (2000)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Entertainment Today (201) on 17 Feb 2003

The main problems with Beautiful Creatures lie in execution -- the film's baser machinations come across as nothing more than indie film quirks…

Review of Smelchak (1919)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Entertainment Today (201) on 17 Feb 2003

Hardly a reinvention of the wheel but, to its considerable credit, a good deal darker, more fun and robustly engaging than most movies of this…

Review of He Loves Me… He Loves Me Not (2002)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Entertainment Today (201) on 17 Feb 2003

A much darker, French version of He Said, She Said with several pinches of Fatal Attraction caught between its aspirations and execution…

Review of Before Night Falls (2000)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Entertainment Today (201) on 17 Feb 2003

Saddled with a wandering opening and an equally listless conclusion, a more fitting name for this two hour-plus biopic might well be Before…

Review of Lost in La Mancha (2002)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Entertainment Today (201) on 03 Feb 2003

An un-making-of featurette about director Terry Gilliam's ill-fated The Man Who Killed Don Quixote…

Review of City of God (2002)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Entertainment Today (201) on 20 Jan 2003

Directed in a sort of urban panoramic style, City of God is, much more than Gangs of New York, a telling and intelligent snapshot of clashing…

Review of Any Given Sunday (1999)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Entertainment Today (201) on 16 Jan 2003

Review of Amadeus (1984)
