Review of Until They Are Home (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 13 Oct 2012

Earnest and well meaning, Until They Are Home tells a solemn story, but just not very well…

Review of The Bay (2012)

By Perri Nemiroff (375) for Shockya.com (657) on 09 Oct 2012

Creepy and thoughtful, but the format makes the story one-dimensional, force-feeding material rather than letting you experience it alongside…

Review of The Big Picture (2010)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 09 Oct 2012

To call it understated is its own special understatement; this is a film-as-character-study, but one that hovers drone-like over its subject…

Review of The Big Picture (2013)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 09 Oct 2012

Review of Blinky & Me (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 09 Oct 2012

An earnest and didactic story, and certainly deeply felt, but it would have benefited greatly from a wider perspective, drawing in other voices…

Review of Francine (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 07 Oct 2012

Caught up in its own self-satisfied metaphor, its blank canvas and broadly sketched melancholic tones an empty vessel for those who would automatically…

Review of Frankenweenie (2012)

By Perri Nemiroff (375) for Shockya.com (657) on 27 Sep 2012

I swear, the older I get, the more of a baby I become. 'Frankenweenie' clocks in at 87 minutes; I cried for 70…

Review of Big Boys Gone Bananas!* (2011)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 25 Sep 2012

A compelling story about freedom of speech, and how in a worldwide economy and digital age companies are even more apt to take aggressive measures…

Review of Downtown Express (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 25 Sep 2012

Review of Nipples & Palm Trees (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 25 Sep 2012

There's plenty of color and sizzle but precious little of substance in this unenlightening tale of a down-and-out Los Angeles artist and his…

Review of True Wolf (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 25 Sep 2012

Frustratingly shapeless and rather bewildering, True Wolf fumbles away interest in what by rights should be the fascinating tale of a Montana…

Review of Speak (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 25 Sep 2012

Most of Speak is an uplifting portrait of friendly competition, and it's when the film embraces this narrative track, and the illumination…

Review of Looper (2012)

By Perri Nemiroff (375) for Shockya.com (657) on 24 Sep 2012

A maniacal montage of cartoonish battle sequences…

Review of Bachelorette (2012)

By Perri Nemiroff (375) for Shockya.com (657) on 07 Sep 2012

Think Bridesmaids, but turn the poop to vomit, up the alcohol intake, darken the sense of humor, give Rebel Wilson an American accent and sprinkle…

Review of The Bourne Legacy (2012)

By Perri Nemiroff (375) for Shockya.com (657) on 07 Aug 2012

Cross doesn't have the same allure as Bourne, but 'The Bourne Legacy' does stay true to the first three films, offering up an exciting new…

Review of Total Recall (2012)

Review of Drunkboat (2012)

By Brent Simon (1,142) for Shockya.com (657) on 29 Jul 2012
