The Connection
Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews

The Human Centipede III (Final Sequence)
MaryAnn Johanson @ FlickFilosopher.com
- Excerpt: I have a terrible suspicion that filmmaker Tom Six would be delighted to learn that someone in the real world had tried to create a human centipede.
Jeremy Kibler @ The Artful Critic
- Excerpt: At the end of the year, it won’t be hard to think of a more morally and socially bankrupt endurance test whose sole reason for existence is to gross you out and repel you.

A Little Chaos
Alan Mattli @ Facing the Bitter Truth [German]
- Excerpt: Slight to the point of weightlessness, Alan Rickman’s sophomore directing effort is a pleasant enough stroll through Louis XIV’s royal gardens.
The Loft
MaryAnn Johanson @ FlickFilosopher.com
- Excerpt: Plausibility isn’t in the cards for this odious excuse for a thriller. This is all about sexy danger, for sociopathic, misogynistic values of “sexy danger.”

Spy
Darren Mooney @ the m0vie blog
- Excerpt: I spy a winner…
Strange Magic
MaryAnn Johanson @ FlickFilosopher.com
- Excerpt: Apparently this was inspired by A Midsummer Night’s Dream, but it has about as much in common with that as Burger King does with Macbeth.
Sunshine Superman
- Excerpt: Sunshine Superman puts wind in your hair and awe in your chest as Strauch lets the audience live the experience for which Carl was a champion.
Survivor
Frank Swietek @ One Guys Opinion
- Excerpt: Routine post-9/11 espionage thriller that leansd far too heavily on ticks taken from far better Hitchcock films.

Banksy Does New York
Sarah Gopaul @ Digital Journal
- Excerpt: ‘Banksy Does New York’ is a record of how the city reacted to the artist’s 31-day residency that included a variety of multimedia art with a political undertone.

2015 Films (Coming Soon)
Chic!
Goerge Zervopoulos @ Movies Ltd. [Greek]
Demonic
George Zervopoulos @ Movies Ltd. [Greek]
From What Is Before
- Excerpt: I feel it will require a second and possibly a third viewing before the film’s entirety comes to light but, for my money, it is a superior film.
Grace of Monaco
Dragan Antulov @ FAK [Croatian]
Susan Granger @ www.susangranger.com
- Excerpt: Simplistic and trivial, it’s a dreary, dull mishmash…
Macondo
Goerge Zervopoulos @ Movies Ltd. [Greek]
Meeting Dr. Sun
A Midsummer Night’s Dream
- Excerpt: It’s virtually impossible to enjoy a close-up in the theatre without juggling a pair of opera glasses but her A Midsummer Night’s Dream offers the complete experience of Shakespeare’s fantastical comedy by punctuating it with reaction shots and vantage points one would not be able to see from a seat in the theatre.
Pasolini
Panagiotis Gkaris @ Movies Ltd. [Greek]
