2.5 of 5

“..feels ever so slightly unfinished. Clunky editing and a few characters surplus to requirements..”
by Leigh Paatsch [Herald Sun]
2 of 5

“..an unreleased movie is like a kind of commodity, one whose value goes up and down depending on the vagaries of circumstance..”
2.5 of 5

“.."Main Street" unfolds with a myriad of problems in the areas of characterization and resolution. There's something interesting here at the core of the conflict, but the story is offered so little room to breathe, coming across rushed and undercooked..”
by Brian Orndorf [BrianOrndorf.com]

by Jon Frosch [The Atlantic]

CHERNOBYL DIARIES :

MIGHTY FINE :

“..the mood is generally melodramatic and ends as mushy..”
by Nick Schager [Village Voice]

MOONRISE KINGDOM :

“..this meticulous and convincing detail does not add up to realism but - depending on your perspective - to something either much less or much more than that..”
by Andrew O'Hehir [Salon.com]

BATTLESHIP :

“..too much uninteresting dialogue about “mysterious” aliens to wade through – plus, oodles of nauseating jingoism and slow-motion heroism..”
by Adam Litovitz [Globe and Mail]

HYSTERIA :

“..for all of its sexual posturing and potential to be truly saucy and unconventional, Tanya Wexler's "Hysteria" is inoffensively pleasant..”
by Kevin Jagernauth [The Palylist]

RUST & BONE :

“..though unabashedly melodramatic, "Rust and Bone" resists many of the pretty comforts of the genre..”
by Peter Debruge [Variety]
