Mick LaSalle

United States

(1959)

Tomboy (2011)

Publish Date: November 23, 2011
"Less subtle than its predecessor (...) 'Boys Don't Cry', 'Tomboy' (...) is practically unique"

SFGATE
Largo Winch (2008)

Publish Date: November 18, 2011
"The movie is a mess. The direction is surprisingly clumsy, with group scenes that feel strangely artificial"

SFGATE
Footloose (2011)

Publish Date: October 14, 2011
"Footloose does everything it needs to do. It's a vibrant youth musical that will appeal to audiences who haven't seen the 1984 original. And it has enough charm and life to it to compete with the memory of the earlier version"

SFGATE
Snow Flower and the Secret Fan (2011)

Publish Date: July 15, 2011
"'Snow Flower and the Secret Fan' has such seriousness and purpose behind it that for 10 or 15 minutes it could be mistaken for a good movie"

SFGATE
Hesher (2010)

Publish Date: May 12, 2011
"We're offered a series of repugnant situations and unspecific, cliched interactions, and we're expected to feel something besides impatience"

SFGATE
Potiche (2010)

Publish Date: April 1, 2011
"It's funny, broad and never stops moving. It's made to please, and succeeds (...) A great strength of Ozon's adaptation is that we know, within 10 minutes, where the movie wants to go"

SFGATE
HappyThankYouMorePlease (2010)

Publish Date: March 11, 2011
"An observant and heartfelt film, with turns of dialogue that show that writer-director Josh Radnor really can write"

SFGATE
The World at War (TV Series) (1974)

Publish Date: January 30, 2011
"There is no overstating the sheer force and power of this documentary series (...) The pain in this documentary is raw, and the recollections are fresh (...) A detailed, committed and impassioned document"

SFGATE
Biutiful (2010)

Publish Date: January 28, 2011
"What Iñárritu gives us is not a beautiful world or an amazing world. It is simply the world, and therefore, by definition, beautiful and amazing - and painful, awful and mysterious"

SFGATE
Blue Valentine (2010)

Publish Date: January 7, 2011
"It's certainly a rare thing when an American film escapes the moral-lesson pattern ... which leads us to the extraordinary and beautiful 'Blue Valentine'."

SFGATE
White Material (2009)

Publish Date: November 26, 2010
"Denis' viewpoint and sympathies are sophisticated, complex and humane. Her shots of African landscapes are beautifully composed"

SFGATE
Faster (2010)

Publish Date: November 24, 2010
"No matter how guilty our knucklehead-protagonist's victims supposedly are, it's difficult to maintain a rooting interest"

SFGATE
I Spit on Your Grave (2010)

Publish Date: October 8, 2010
"In addition to all the obvious things that are disgusting about this movie, 'I Spit on Your Grave' is trying to get us to hate each other."

SFGATE
It's Kind of a Funny Story (2010)

Publish Date: October 8, 2010
"[It] has charm (...) The journey is aided immeasurably by the casting of Keir Gilchrist (...) A beautiful thing in this film, which is fairly lovely throughout, is the way Galifianakis looks at Gilchrist"

SFGATE
Heartbreaker (2010)

Publish Date: September 17, 2010
"I turns out to be just as bad as any routine French romantic comedy - illogical, inconsistent and sloppily written, a charmless, tasteless, witless waste of time"

SFGATE
Middle Men (2009)

Publish Date: August 6, 2010
"Sober and dispiriting, tense and morose (...) In good and bad ways, 'Middle Men' feels true"

SFGATE
Making Plans for Lena (2009)

Publish Date: August 6, 2010
"The story is so undercooked as to be practically nonexistent. It's just an accumulation of bland incidents involving the central character and her family."

SFGATE
Paper Man (2009)

Publish Date: May 21, 2010
"What we have in this film is a whole lot of nothing, and the little that's there is irritating (...) It's also listless, tepid, lifeless and fake."

SFGATE
The Losers (2010)

Publish Date: April 23, 2010
"It's strange what a bad action movie takes seriously and doesn't take seriously. Take, for example, 'The Losers,' in which cliches are sacred and human life of no value"

SFGATE
Vivre sa vie (1962)

Publish Date: April 18, 2010
"If Jean-Luc Godard only made this one film, it would be enough to put him in the cinematic pantheon. This is one of the all-time great films"
