Pre-2017 Film Reviews
Albert Nobbs
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews [2011]
Blue Jasmine
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews [2013]
- Excerpt: A Streetcar Named Desire as imagined by Woody Allen.
Great Expectations
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews [2012]
- Excerpt: Great Expectations is steady, respectable, beautifully filmed. Why then is it yet another bungled adaptation?
Howl’s Moving Castle
Gregory J. Smalley @ The Spool [2004]
- Excerpt: Like Howl’s castle, this movie is cobbled together from mismatched parts; it looks unstable and threatens to tumble over as it rambles along, but master wizardry holds it together.
The Invisible War
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews [2012]
- Excerpt: The Invisible War, a documentary about rape within the U.S. military, is beyond horrifying. It is infuriating, tragic, and highly upsetting.

Mud
