Review of Jake Squared (2014)

By Simon Abrams (730) for Village Voice (8,525) on 11 Aug 2014

Review of Abuse of Weakness (2013)

By Zachary Wigon (46) for Village Voice (8,525) on 11 Aug 2014

Review of Into the Storm (2014)

By Alan Scherstuhl (679) for Village Voice (8,525) on 07 Aug 2014

Review of What If (2013)

By Stephanie Zacharek (2,333) for Village Voice (8,525) on 07 Aug 2014

Review of Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium (2007)

By Ella Taylor (978) for Village Voice (8,525) on 07 Aug 2014

Review of The Dog (2013)

By Pete Vonder Haar (745) for Village Voice (8,525) on 04 Aug 2014

Review of About Alex (2014)

By Abby Garnett (48) for Village Voice (8,525) on 04 Aug 2014
