The Banshee Chapter
Jennie Kermode @ Eye For Film
Gregory J. Smalley @ 366 Weird Movies
- Excerpt: If you have a passion either for paranormal culture or for anything [Hunter S.] Thompson-related, ‘Banshee Chapter’ may be worthwhile; for those without a particular interest in these subject, however, it’s not a wild enough ride to justify buying a ticket.
Blue Ruin
Travis Hopson @ Punch Drunk Critics
- Excerpt: The true power of Blue Ruin is its ability to find tension in the little things, not showy acts of violence.

Travis Hopson @ Punch Drunk Critics

2014 Films (Coming Soon)
Louis Cyr
- Excerpt: Not the strongest film in the world, but a film of notable production value and spirit.
Police Story 2013
- Excerpt: A sequel in name only to Jackie Chan’s hugely popular action series, this latest offering moves proceedings to mainland China for a small scale, straight-faced and relatively thrill-free drama with a tendency to pontificate about civil responsibility.
Tom Yum Goong 2
- Excerpt: Tony Jaa reunites with the team that helped make his name in the martial arts world, but both he and co-star Jeeja Yanin are eclipsed by impressive up-and-comer Marrese Crump in this otherwise underwhelming action sequel.
Venus in Fur
José Arce @ LaButaca.net [Spanish]
- Excerpt: Roman Polanski se lanza a un texto tan clásico como polémico acompañado de tan sólo dos actores y un escenario embriagador. Una película turbulenta, sórdida, inquietante, desde luego; pero también divertida, amena y en ocasiones rayana en lo hilarante.
