The Secret of Kells
The Secret of Kells is a movie full to bursting with the pure potential of animation, an aesthetic experience so impeccably designed that style and substance are indistinguishable.…

A Serious Man (Coen Brothers, 2009 – In The Manner of Tractate Berakoth IX)
If the central question of this film rotates on Schroedinger's cat, the religious implication is this: If the tradition is the box, is God alive or is he dead?…

Finally, the Criterion Collection has brought out Rossellini's World War II triptych in a lavish box set. …

My Night At Maud’s (”Ma nuit chez Maud” 1969, Eric Rohmer)
Eric Rohmer died on Monday of this week at the age of 89. Filmwell pays tribute with a consideration of the French film maker's playful look at free will and determinism, sex and spirituality.…

Séraphine (Provost, 2009)
Surprisingly overlooked in 2009's parade of critics' awards and top ten lists, this remarkable film and its lead performance deserve closer examination.…

The Sun (Sokurov, 2005)
It is hard to believe that this film made the festival rounds up to four years ago, but will now be popping up on critic’s lists for 2009 as it has finally had an actual theatrical run this year. The Sun is the final installment of a three part series of Sokurov biopics covering a [...]…

Notes on Marie Menken (Kudlácek, 2009)
If you have never seen any of Marie Menken’s films, watch the three shorts included on the Icarus DVD release of Martina Kudlácek’s recent documentary about her kindly influence on the American avant-garde. These films will probably first strike you as overwrought, minor, or the practice footage of some film student with a Bolex. Glimpses [...]…

D’Est (Akerman, 1993)
But the initial dread I felt was that of the tourist, discomforted by an unexpected climate, a different way of negotiating crowds, or making it across town. The squat architecture of Moscow lends itself to a certain mythic eeriness in the winter months. As the film slowly moves towards Moscow, these milling groups of people Akerman are filming start to become denser and less interested in her tracking…

Police, Adjective (2010)
My review of Police, Adjective is posted at Image. Here’s how it starts. I’ve just seen a hell of a film. Corneliu Porumboiu’s Police, Adjective—hailed as the latest masterpiece of the Romanian New Wave—is likely to convince American moviegoers that they should avoid the Romanian New Wave. The movie moves at a snail’s pace. (The most energetic scene in [...]…

Letters to Father Jacob (2009) – guest reviewer N.W. Douglas
[Note: This review was submitted by N.W Douglas, an undergraduate film student at Simon Fraser University.

Girlfriend Experience, The (2009)
a review by Jeffrey Overstreet • Magnolia Pictures. Directed by Steven Soderbergh. Starring Sasha Grey, Chris Santos,Peter Zizzo, Glenn Kenny. Written by Brian Koppelman and David Levien. 77 minutes.

Up in the Air (2009) – Looking Closer’s Film Forum
I’m not allowed to post my review of this film before its release date, due to studio policies. So I’ll wait. In the meantime, here are some reviews that have been online for a while now… 1.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)
2009 UPDATE: It’s been more than five years since I wrote this review of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and my appreciation for this film has only deepened since then. It went on to become quite an important film to many of my colleagues, so important, in fact, that when the team of a dozen [...]…

The Road (2009)
a review by Jeffrey Overstreet* • Dimension Films presents a film directed by John Hillcoat. Written by Joe Penhall, based on the novel by Cormac McCarthy. Starring Viggo Mortensen, Kodi Smit-McPhee, Charlize Theron, Robert Duvall, Guy Pearce Running time: 119 minutes. Rated R. • The Road isn’t like any holiday-season movie you’ve seen before. As the movie begins, a character called…

Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009) – Looking Closer’s Film Forum
I don’t plan to spend any pennies on The Twilight Saga: New Moon after the living nightmare that was the sneak-preview screening of Twilight. So I refer you to the critic I trust most.

Alice in Wonderland
When did you last see a truly great Tim Burton film? Sure, there have been respectable entries (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Sweeney Todd), but the last truly exceptional Burton film was indubitably Edward Scissorhands, exactly 20 years ago. It cannot be argued that Burton picks quintessentially perfect material for his gothic, off-bubble sensibilities (what [...]…

The Ghost Writer
“One of these things is not like the other,” Big Bird used to croon on Sesame Street. “One of these things just doesn’t belong.” It is fairly obvious that Big Bird was playfully commenting on the fact that Roman Polanski’s The Ghost Writer is far too good a film for its February release date, a [...]…

From Paris with Love
1/2 From Paris with Love is like The Odd Couple with automatic weapons. This enjoyable, low rent Bourne actioneer may be preposterous, but that’s half its cheeky charm.

Creation

The Best Films of the Aughts
Compiling a decade’s best list is a profoundly intimidating affair. Some films, especially the first handful, come instantly. They are as immovable as granite, as strong today as when they first appeared. But things get more complicated the further down the list you go. Some assume that one would simply review one’s Best Of lists [...]…

The Best Films of 2009
This may be the personally oddest and most eclectic “Best Of” list I’ve ever compiled. Half is strongly art-house and indie minded, while the other half is not simply mainstream, it is firmly entrenched in solid blockbuster territory. How to explain it? Simple. These were my favorite films of the year. These were the ones [...]…

Sherlock Holmes
I walked into Sherlock Holmes more than a little anxious. As a longtime fan of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s famed detective and a voracious reader of his exploits, I was concerned that director Guy Ritchie (Snatch, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels) was going to transform the beloved literary icon into little more than a [...]…

A Single Man
A Single Man is a lavish and romantic examination of interrupted love, a chronicle of life and loss and everything that binds it together. Its mood is its truth and its imagery is all the narrative we need. It is one of the most beautiful things you will set eyes on all year. The plot of [...]…

Alice in Wonderland
This is not your grandmother’s Alice. Though the title is the same, director Tim Burton did not film a new version of the classic novels by British clergyman and logician Lewis Carroll (1832-1898), Alice in Wonderland and Alice Through the Looking Glass. Instead, Burton and screenwriter Linda Woolverton have moved the action forward 13 years. Now Alice, almost 20, is attending a garden party…

Avatar
[National Review; December 20, 2009] In Avatar’s opening moments, hero-to-be Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) is waking up on the planet Pandora after a cryogenic journey, and reflecting on the twists of fate. Here he is, a paraplegic Marine, filling in for the twin brother who actually trained for this mission. But right before Tommy was due to ship out, “a guy with a gun put an end to his…

Fantastic Mr. Fox
It’s the little things that count. Director Wes Anderson has always been good with the little things, filling movies like Rushmore (1998), The Royal Tennenbaums (2001), and The Darjeeling Limited (2007) with extraordinary, eye-catching detail. In Fantastic Mr. Fox the things are littler than ever, as the tallest actor is only 18” high. This film is an example of stop-motion animation, in…

As We Forgive
I brought a handkerchief. The occasion was a screening of the documentary As We Forgive, slated to kick off American University’s Human Rights Film Series this fall. It is the first film by Laura Waters Hinson, an AU alumna, and in addition to numerous festival awards it won a Student Academy Award. The film’s topic is the aftermath of the 1994 genocide in Rwanda, in which Hutus killed…

The Invention of Lying
What would it be like to live in a world without lying? I expected the universe depicted in this film to present a reverse image of the Jim Carrey comedy “Liar Liar,” in which the main character finds himself uncomfortably compelled to tell the truth. I expected, that is, one more brash, noisy, agitated film, replete with insults and gross-out jokes. I wasn’t expecting the sweetness…

All About Steve
You expect certain things from a Sandra Bullock comedy, and if that’s what you’re looking for, “All About Steve” will not disappoint. She’s perky and quirky, slim and lovely, and a very good sport about looking unglamorous (here she survives both a tornado and a fall into an abandoned mine). You’ll be unsurprised to learn that romantic complications arise, followed…

Motherland
Does this sound like a good idea for a movie? I can’t decide. Take six women who have suffered the loss of a child. Send them together to South Africa, to work with impoverished children. In the security of each other’s company, with a genuine need set before them, their grief is mitigated and healing is begun. As therapy, it’s a great idea. …

(500) Days of Summer
Summer Finn, we’re told, is an average woman in many ways—like height and weight, though slightly above average shoe size. (The narrator telling us this, in a wryly amused way, sounds like James Earl Jones, though I can’t find a credit for him.) Yet something about her arrests men’s attention. She gets an average of 18.4 double-takes per day. This is, we are told, “the…

And before you see…

Up
I knew Up was one of those rare first-rate movies when I found myself really yearning to see it for a second time. Actually, that wouldn’t have been so unusual, except that I was still sitting in the theater and had only gotten through 20 minutes of seeing it for the first time. It’s that good. And that in itself isn’t so unusual, considering that this is a film from Pixar Studios,…

O'Horten
How odd is Odd?  When we meet Odd Horten, he is driving the Oslo-Bergen express train through a blue-white snowy landscape. (This opening-credits sequence is gorgeous:  each dive into a tunnel, each returning plunge through a circle of searing white, is a cinematic marvel.) But a young railroad employee catching a ride up front with Odd finds that it’s very hard to draw him into conversation.…

X-Men Origins: Wolverine
[National Review Online: May, 1, 2009] I am not now, nor have I ever been, a fanboy. So why did I get such a kick out of “X-Men Origins: Wolverine”? Because the title character is an interesting guy, with a complicated history and complicated feelings. Because the plot has some good twists, not all of which are straightened out before final credits roll. Because the story totes us around…

Earth
“Earth,” the first release from the Disneynature films, lives up to its publicity; this film is 85 minutes of jaw-droppingly beautiful clouds, waterfalls, icebergs, and savannahs; of graceful animals, scary animals, funny animals, and excruciatingly cute baby animals. James Earl Jones delivers a narration that is mild and accessible to children. (A typical line: after a shot of a penguin…

Hannah Montana: The Movie
[National Review: April 10, 2009] Whoever’s in charge of truth-in-labeling in Washington needs to take a look at the phenomenon called “Hannah Montana”. That’s the name of a fictitious world-famous pop star, who conceals her secret identity in order to live a normal life as fictitious high-schooler Miley Stewart; this way, she has “The Best of Both Worlds” (as Hannah-Miley’s…

The Tale of Despereaux
[National Review; December 22, 2008] There is so much to like about this film; it’s visually beguiling, it has some original characters, it’s free of crudity and pop-culture references, and it’s not screamy or exhausting. Why, then, did I find my interest evaporating within an hour of leaving the theater? I have a hunch—but let’s deal with the basics first. Despereaux…

I’ll remember it as a landmark year for animation. I’ll remember it as a watershed for children’s literary adaptations. I’ll remember it as the year we finally got a good Iraq war film.

Josh’s Top Ten (or so) Films of the Decade, 2000-2009
Ten years, ten movies. I’m not sure how this process works for everyone else, but for me, it starts off very easy, then grows very difficult, and, in the end, becomes very easy again. When I first started thinking about which films I was going to honor as my favorites of the past decade, I jotted [...]…

The Top Ten (or so) Films of the Decade: #3 The New World (Malick, 2006)
I remember the first time I read T.S. Eliot’s The Wasteland for a college English class– not getting it, not wanting to get it, ultimately hating it. I remember reading it again, baffled and bewildered by the professor’s in-class comments that suggested a depth I hadn’t even begun to fathom– laboring over it, taking copious [...]…

The Top Ten (or so) Films of the Decade: #4 Spirited Away (Miyazaki, 2002)
It was released in the same year as a Star Wars and a Lord of the Rings, and in a decade that gave us Pan’s Labyrinth and, uh, two more Lord of the Rings. But for me, Spirited Away is the defining work of fantasy on the big screen– a masterpiece of imagination that is [...]…

The Top Ten (or so) Films of the Decade: #5 No Country for Old Men (Coen, 2007)
I had a literature professor who offered a slight criticism of author Cormac McCarthy, that perhaps he was just a bit too fascinated by a particularly macho vision of violence and bloodshed. I’m not sure that the same could be said of the Coen brothers‘ adaptation of McCarthy’s No Country for Old Men; in fact, [...]…

Fantastic may be the understatement of the year– Wes Anderson’s new film is flat-out stupendous, and in an already-historic year for Hollywood adaptations of childhood classics, ranging from Spike Jonze’s triumph of interpretation in Where the Wild Things Are to the zany inspiration of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, Anderson’s Fox is the stone-cold [...]…

The Top Ten (or so) Films of the Decade: #6 Punch-drunk Love (Anderson, 2002)
Punch-drunk Love is Paul Thomas Anderson’s smallest film– it isn’t an epic, or a mosaic, it is a romantic-comedy, a miniature masterpiece that barely tops an hour and a half. It is also, arguably, his most sophisticated film: It’s a love story, but also a parable for a particularly modern malaise, a film in which [...]…
