Because of embargoes (those happy little restrictions on when critics can post reviews, good or bad), a lot of our critics aren’t able to share links with you until release day. Here are some last-minute reviews for this weekend’s upcoming films. We’ve kept in all the reviews posted yesterday as well so you can have more help in deciding what to see (if you haven’t already).
Our critics have been hard at work reviewing the latest films. Here is a look at what’s coming out this weekend (in select cities, check your local listings) and what else may be in theaters right now.

2013 Films Not Yet In Theaters
Dormant Beauty
Ek Thi Daayan
Kathy Gibson @ Access Bollywood
Iron Man: Rise of Technovore
- Excerpt: Iron Man: Rise of Technovore has a decent story that makes fitting use of many characters from the Marvel universe. The presentation, however, proves to be kind of lifeless and underwhelming.
Kinderblock 66: Return to Buchenwald
Mike McGranaghan @ The Aisle Seat
- Excerpt: A compelling, emotional film
Molly Maxwell
Ombline
Jean-François Vandeuren @ Panorama-cinema.com [French]
The Patience Stone
Jesse Cataldo @ Slant Magazine
Pawn
- Excerpt: The pacing and plotting are just enough to hold your interest and get you to overlook some off-key moments.
Piazza Fontana: The Italian Conspiracy
The Red and the Blue
Rio 2096: A Story of Love and Fury
Marcio Sallem @ Em Cartaz [Portuguese]
Thale
- Excerpt: This 2012 Norwegian genre film, which reaches America via home video next week, sells itself on the image of a seemingly naked woman with a tail in a forest of large mushrooms (added for this release), shadowy figures, and the hint of magic. Sure, there’s some intrigue to that artwork, but it sets the bar around “Species.”
