Pre-2023 Film Reviews
Badlands (1973)
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: Sparse, simple, Terrence Malick’s feature film debut tells its story of murderous love effectively.
Conan the Destroyer (1984)
Nuno Reis @ Antestreia [Portuguese]
- Excerpt: Era o fim de uma era de experimentação irreverente e arriscada sem pensar em bilheteiras, e a entrada em cena das sequelas e da normalização do que era expepcional.
Eyes Wide Shut (1999)
Lia Matthew Brown @ Screen Anarchy
- Excerpt: Just in time for the holidays, the ultimate Christmas movie (eat it, ‘Die Hard’!) drops into the Criterion Collection
Tales of Hoffmann (1951)
- Excerpt: There’s nothing naturalistic about The Tales of Hoffmann—instead, everything is as theatrical and fantastic as it can be, and each section is introduced by turning the pages of a program naming the setting, characters and cast (particularly useful in this opera, when many performers play multiple roles).
