2012 Films Not Yet In Theaters
11 Flowers
- Excerpt: Over the course of a nearly two-decade career, director Wang Xiaoshuai has quietly amassed one of the most impressive filmographies of contemporary Chinese filmmakers. His latest, “11 Flowers,” is his most classically composed and one of his most emotionally affecting works, affording a unique, child’s-eye view of the Cultural Revolution.
Aquí y Allá
- Excerpt: Slow-paced family drama a mixed bag
Bay of All Saints
- Excerpt: Not excellent doesn’t always correlate with “forgettable”
Caesar Must Die
Peter Nellhaus @ Coffee Coffee and more Coffee
- Excerpt: The Taviani brothers continue to astonish.
Caesar Must Die
Tiago Ramos @ Split Screen [Portuguese]
Iceberg Slim: Portrait of a Pimp
Ron Wilkinson @ MonstersandCritics.com
- Excerpt: If the subject interests you, buy and read a couple of Iceberg’s books. This film is for entertainment only, although there is substantial entertainment to be had.
J.A.C.E.
George Zervopoulos @ Movies Ltd [Greek]
Journey to Planet X
Peter Nellhaus @ Coffee Coffee and more Coffee
- Excerpt: In its own way, Journey to Planet X shows that making a no-budget film takes a lot of effort.
A Moral Conjugal
Tiago Ramos @ Split Screen [Portuguese]
Mourning
- Excerpt: “Mourning” is a brilliantly conceived and splendidly designed film that reaffirms the fact that Iran is the source of some of world cinema’s most humanistic, emotionally affecting, and philosophically profound works.
The Muslims Are Coming
Stephen Saito @ The Moveable Fest
- Excerpt: From its Austin Film Fest premiere, Muslim-American comics Negin Farsad and Dean Obeidallah document a tour across the reddest states in America to change the perception of their religion and get laughs doing it.
Orchestra of Exiles
Ron Wilkinson @ MonstersandCritics.com
- Excerpt: The story of one of the greatest orchestras in the world, born out of one of the worst tragedies of the 20th century, the holocaust.
Rice Field of Dreams
Betty Jo Tucker @ ReelTalk Movie Reviews
- Excerpt: A unique and inspiring baseball documentary.
Snackbar
- Excerpt: Snacks are sold more to kill time than to nourish
Sparrows Dance
Stephen Saito @ The Moveable Fest
- Excerpt: From the Austin Film Festival and anchored by two strong performances, a romance conjured from limited means demonstrates the real magic of movies.
Young Gun in the Time
- Excerpt: Raymond Chandler meets “Back to the Future,” with a liberal dose of Seijun Suzuki tossed into the mix, in “Young Gun in the Time,” writer-director Oh Young-doo’s clever and funny time-travel detective story. It impressively makes full use of its shoestring budget ($30,000) with inventiveness, an irreverent sense of fun, and some surprisingly well-choreographed fight scenes.
