2012 Films Not Yet In Theaters
After Lucía
Amber Wilkinson @ Eye For Film
- Excerpt: An uncomfortable and disturbing experience with a vengeful sting in the tail that sinks our already taut and wrung out emotions into even more chilling waters.
As Goes Janesville
Joshua Brunsting @ CriterionCast
Astérix et Obélix: God Save Britannia
George Zervopoulos @ Movies Ltd [Greek]
Bitter Seeds
Bev Questad @ It’s Just Movies
- Excerpt: Every 30 minutes, a farmer in India kills himself and this doc shows why.
Blancanieves
Amber Wilkinson @ Eye For Film
- Excerpt: Although much of the action is played for dark comedy, Berger undercuts his pastiche with unexpected poignancy at key moments.
Frances Ha
Ron Wilkinson @ MonstersandCritics.com
- Excerpt: A major leap upward for both Baumbach and Gerwig, disarming, funny and genuine, in spite of the New York City backdrop.
Gabe the Cupid Dog
- Excerpt: This atrocious, amateurish canine comedy proves your gut reaction to such a generic looking movie is an entirely appropriate one.
The Lords of Salem
Ricky da Conceição @ Sound On Sight
- Excerpt: a gaudy dance between the macabre and the art-house
No
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat @ SpiritualityandPractice.com
- Excerpt: Last of a trilogy of films about Chilean politics, told through the story of an ad man using positive images to persuade voters to reject a dictator.
Rupture: A Matter of Life OR Death
The Scapegoat
Marilyn Ferdinand @ Ferdy on Films
- Excerpt: The latest adaptation of Daphne du Maurier’s doppleganger novel is a finely crafted, if somewhat superficial character study that is engrossing to the end.
Shell
Amber Wilkinson @ Eye For Film
- Excerpt: Isolation rules and comfort is cold in Scott Graham’s gripping and emotionally tense feature debut.
Silenced Voices
Bev Questad @ It’s Just Movies
- Excerpt: Arnestad’s documentary reports on the plight of Tamil civilians who have been interned since the end of the 2009 civil war.
Special Flight
Bev Questad @ It’s Just Movies
- Excerpt: The first reason to see this revealing documentary is to raise questions about how we treat illegal immigrants once they are apprehended. The second is to come up with a new plan for repatriation.
This Is Not a Movie
Gregory J. Smalley @ 366 Weird Movies
- Excerpt: The script plays like a series of incidents and revelations jotted down in notebooks by couple of sophomore English majors during an all-night bull/sensi-smoking session.
Today
Marilyn Ferdinand @ Ferdy on Films
- Excerpt: Tey is a hauntingly beautiful film that confronts our peculiarly human tragedy of knowing we will die, and gives us a few answers about coping with that frightening inevitability.
2011 Films
Like There’s No Tomorrow
- Excerpt: …Like There’s No Tomorrow offers some cool sights with its spectacular hi-def footage of snowy mountains all over the world. But that is merely the backdrop for looks at countless ski and snowboard jumps.
