A documentary on life in Antarctica told by a long-time resident.

Remote Area Medical

A documentary on the medical needs of America's poor.

Deep Web

6.5

With a lot to say on drug-sales platform Silk Road, encryption, digital rights, and Ross Ulbricht this doc struggles to form a unified narrative.

The Beauty Inside

6.5

This fun, high-concept romantic comedy casts 123 different actors in the same role.

Emelie

6.5

A parents' night out turns into a nightmare for their kids in this taut, psycho-sitter thriller.

The Samaritan

The Samaritan is something of an enigma to me. I honestly wasn’t expecting too much from the film as the previews really didn’t intrigue me too much. The film...

Back Issues: The Hustler Magazine Story

First-time filmmaker Michael Lee Nirenberg interviews his father, Bill Nirenberg, in his new documentary, but fuzzy sentimentality and paternal adoration plays little to no part in their on-camera conversation....

Sci-fi thriller Automata’s obvious parallel – so obvious that it has dominated press publicity — is with I, Robot, both the film and the Isaac Asimov novel it was...

Still Alice

6.5

Bryan Cranston plays a hero of the Hollywood blacklist in a film unequal and unfit to its historical significance.

Take This Waltz

Take This Waltz plays out more like a fantasy than the traditional romantic comedy it is based upon. This sophomore feature from director Sarah Polley contains an outcome that...

6.5

A visually impressive debut feature that relies too heavily on ambiguity.

6.5

Patton Oswalt and Paul Rudd voice an inept pair of Hollywood star wannabees that get in over their heads on an all-out quest for fame.

A well-constructed, well-groomed class drama with lots of big ideas that doesn't end up saying much.

A documentary on saving the endangered songbirds of Europe is admirable and uninteresting.

Horse Money

6.5

Vivid and peculiar memories of the Carnation Revolution continue in Pedro Costa's latest mind-sapping hybrid.

Spring

6.5

First a romance, second a monster-infused Lovecraftian tale.
