Guántanamo Diary Revisited
- Excerpt: Nothing new under the sun of torture
Halftime
Mike McGranaghan @ The Aisle Seat
- Excerpt: I’ve admired J. Lo’s work for a long time, and this movie increased my respect for her even more.
Hustle
Allen Almachar @ The MacGuffin
- Excerpt: Although I had an inkling of where things were going, I was struck by how invested I became in the journey.
Hustle
Derek Deskins @ Edge Media Network
- Excerpt: Hustle has the vibe of something built carefully and thoughtfully, and the results are a delight. It is the type of movie that reels you in with punchy sports action, but keeps you around for the way it makes you feel.
Incarnation
Mark Harris @ Black Horror Movies
Neptune Frost
- Excerpt: Every once in a while, a film comes along that more needs seeing than reviewing.
Neptune Frost
Pleasure
Travis Burgess @ The Sacred Wall
Potato Dreams of America
- Excerpt: As the younger Vasili, Hersh Powers charms the camera with his apparent naiveté and boyish good looks; once in America, Tyler Bocock readily exudes his inner gay with panache.
Sex Appeal
Gregory Carlson @ southpawfilmworks.net
Titanic 666
Mark Harris @ Black Horror Movies
Wyrm
Gregory J. Smalley @ 366 Weird Movies
- Excerpt: Part absurdist farce and part earnest bildungsroman, the movie’s two agendas seem like they should work at cross purposes—but while you can sometimes see the seams, it all comes together as a charming addition to the quirky teen outcast genre.
