People Like Us (2012)

Publish Date: June 27, 2020
"The performances, especially Ms. Banks's Frankie and Ms. Pfeiffer's Lillian, partly compensate for the holes in a story whose timing is hard to swallow."

The New York Times
Cézanne and I (2015)

Publish Date: March 28, 2017
"Mr. Gallienne, who dominates the film, gives an electrifying portrait of Cézanne (...) 'Cézanne et Moi' offers a pungent, demystifying portrait of the rowdy late-19th-century Parisian art world"

The New York Times
The Zookeeper's Wife (2017)

Publish Date: March 28, 2017
"Ms. Chastain’s watchful, layered performance helps keep the film on an even keel, but it is not enough to prevent 'The Zookeeper’s Wife' (...) from feeling like a Disney version of the Holocaust."

The New York Times
The Odyssey (2016)

Publish Date: March 9, 2017
"'The Odyssey' is less an epic than a standard biopic"

The New York Times
Donald Cried (2016)

Publish Date: March 1, 2017
"[It] is an acutely insightful, exquisitely written and acted triumph for Mr. Avedisian"

The New York Times
Apprentice (2016)

Publish Date: March 1, 2017
"At first 'Apprentice' seems to be a basic revenge film in which Aiman stalks the man who killed his father. But it becomes psychologically more complex"

The New York Times
Punching Henry (2016)

Publish Date: February 22, 2017
"Mr. Phillips’s self-deprecating humor is amusing but not funny enough to give him the edge he needs to rise up and conquer."

The New York Times
Dying Laughing (2016)

Publish Date: February 22, 2017
"This overcrowded movie could be a teaching tool in a comedy school. But as one comic after another recalls triumphs, misadventures and painful lessons learned, the stories become redundant."

The New York Times
From Nowhere (2016)

Publish Date: February 15, 2017
"The tensions among these boisterous teenagers are palpable"

The New York Times
In Dubious Battle (2016)

Publish Date: February 15, 2017
"[It] is the farthest thing imaginable from the titillating provocations for which Mr. Franco is notorious (...) It belongs to the literary subgenre that might be called James Franco’s eat-your-spinach movies."

The New York Times
I, Daniel Blake (2016)

Publish Date: December 21, 2016
"[It] is a powerful return to form for Mr. Loach (...) [He] is still in full command as a filmmaker and a social critic (...) Its performances (...) are so fine-tuned..."

The New York Times
Rocky Balboa (2006)

Publish Date: December 19, 2016
"Surprisingly 'Rocky Balboa', is no embarrassment. Like its forerunners it goes the distance almost in spite of itself. It’s all heart and no credibility except as a raw-boned fable.

The New York Times
All We Had (2016)

Publish Date: December 7, 2016
"A well-meaning but formulaic movie with not enough time to transcend predictable clichés"

The New York Times
Rules Don't Apply (2016)

Publish Date: November 21, 2016
"It may be hyperbolic to describe Warren Beatty's Howard Hughes movie, 'Rules Don't Apply', as a screwball 'Citizen Kane'. But that's what it feels like."

The New York Times
Notes on Blindness (2016)

Publish Date: November 14, 2016
"Magnificent documentary (...) The tone of the narration is so wrenchingly honest that the film never lapses into self-pity or relies on mystical platitudes."

The New York Times
Don't Call Me Son (2016)

Publish Date: October 31, 2016
"The narrowness of its perspective and its relatively brief 82-minute length disappoint. Yet 'Don't Call Me Son' still manages to be a fascinating, sympathetic portrait of a lost boy abruptly thrown to the wolves."

The New York Times
Gimme Danger (2016)

Publish Date: October 26, 2016
"'Gimme Danger' is (...) plenty entertaining and includes many moments of foaming-at-the-mouth musical fury."

The New York Times
The Accountant (2016)

Publish Date: October 12, 2016
"The movie (...), makes little sense. The screenplay (...) is so determined to hide its cards that when the big reveal finally arrives, it feels as underwhelming as it is preposterous."

The New York Times
Mascots (2016)

Publish Date: October 11, 2016
"'Mascots' suffers from mockumentary fatigue syndrome"

The New York Times
Being 17 (2016)

Publish Date: October 5, 2016
"A touching drama about raging hormones, bullying and sexual awakening - and the strongest film in many years by the post-New Wave French director André Téchiné."
