The Skeleton Twins (2014) 86% C+ EDIT “It may not always work as a drama but The Skeleton Twins proves to be a fine showcase for Wiig and Hader, showing they are both capable of dramatic material.” – The Playlist Feb 1, 2014 Full Review God's Pocket (2014) 36% C- EDIT “Featuring grotesque depictions of a bar full of sad sacks that would make Alexander Payne wince, the film is almost unrepentantly nasty towards its characters.” – The Playlist Feb 1, 2014 Full Review The One I Love (2014) 83% B EDIT “It's a very small-scale, unassuming relationship movie (with a heady little twist), but it sneaks up on you.” – The Playlist Feb 1, 2014 Full Review 20,000 Days on Earth (2014) 97% B+ EDIT “While the doc should prove essential for Nick Cave fans, it should be inspiring for those interested in the creative process or anyone searching for their muse.” – The Playlist Jan 23, 2014 Full Review Life After Beth (2014) 46% C+ EDIT “...Baena's debut just never really comes to life and unfortunately lacks the bite the best of the genre has to offer.” – The Playlist Jan 23, 2014 Full Review The Guest (2014) 92% B EDIT “The director-writer team have crafted a great-looking and sincere genre throwback without resorting to pastiche of some of their peers.” – The Playlist Jan 23, 2014 Full Review Wish I Was Here (2014) 45% C- EDIT “At almost two hours, the film feels every minute of it, building to a climax that basically amounts to the platitude "being a father is really hard."” – The Playlist Jan 23, 2014 Full Review A Most Wanted Man (2014) 86% B- EDIT “Not as arty as The American or Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy or as soapy and quickly paced as its small screen counterparts, A Most Wanted Man is left somewhere in the middle.” – The Playlist Jan 23, 2014 Full Review C.O.G. (2013) 69% B- EDIT “Despite some good performances and sharp screenplay, C.O.G., like its lead character, seems stuck in the space between.” – The Playlist Sep 20, 2013 Full Review The Green Inferno (2013) 39% C EDIT “It seems, ironically, much more amateurish than any of Roth's previous features, to the point where you start to wonder why he chose this as his comeback vehicle.” – The Playlist Sep 13, 2013 Full Review The To Do List (2013) 55% B EDIT “You may not realize until you're watching The To Do List how refreshing it is just to see this familiar story told from the female perspective.” – The Playlist Jul 23, 2013 Full Review Girl Most Likely (2012) 24% C EDIT “The desire to escape your hometown and reshape your identity is potentially rich territory to explore but the script by Michelle Morgan looks only to mine from the surface so you end up with trite lessons about how there's no place like home.” – The Playlist Jul 17, 2013 Full Review Submarine (2010) 88% B+ EDIT “Submarine is a remarkably assured debut filled with dry humor, inventive visual wit and great performances.” – The Playlist Jul 10, 2013 Full Review Terri (2011) 88% C+ EDIT “...An enjoyable coming-of-age film but a few of the darker sequences and the general feeling that you've seen this story before might keep it from being a larger success.” – The Playlist Jul 10, 2013 Full Review The Details (2011) 45% C+ EDIT “Despite some tonal stumbles, the film mostly finds its footing and becomes an enjoyable comic enterprise.” – The Playlist Jul 10, 2013 Full Review Boy (2010) 88% C EDIT “The momentum from the opening dissipates early and without a real engine pushing the movie foward, it begins to drag...the film is 87 minutes and feels like it's 2 hours.” – The Playlist Jul 10, 2013 Full Review Detachment (2011) 59% D+ EDIT “A bizarre, well intentioned mess, at the very least, Detachment is never dull...even as the film is bad, it's compulsively watchable.” – The Playlist Jul 10, 2013 Full Review Project Nim (2011) 97% B EDIT “This smart doc should prove the perfect summer antidote to most of summer's films that require you to turn your brain off to enjoy them.” – The Playlist Jul 10, 2013 Full Review Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (2010) 61% C EDIT “Completists of del Toro will want to check it out as a curio but it's hard to imagine general audiences or even horror fans finding anything here they haven't seen before.” – The Playlist Jul 10, 2013 Full Review Twixt (2011) 39% D+ EDIT “As much as the budget appears to have been a constraint on the effects of the film, it shouldn't have affected the acting or coherency of the picture.” – The Playlist Jul 10, 2013 Full Review 360 (2011) 19% C+ EDIT “If the film had not been afraid to go a little darker, dig a little deeper and develop its characters beyond their stereotypes, it would have been a much stronger effort.” – The Playlist Jul 10, 2013 Full Review Being Elmo: A Puppeteer's Journey (2011) 95% B EDIT “Even if Elmo was a little after your time, the doc is sure to wring a few tears out of nostalgia prone adults with its behind-the-scenes look at a show everybody grew up with.” – The Playlist Jul 10, 2013 Full Review Bachelorette (2012) 58% C+ EDIT “Three bridesmaids embark on a non-stop parade of debauchery fueled by coke, booze, and pills... for all those people that wished Bridesmaids was more like The Hangover.” – The Playlist Jul 10, 2013 Full Review Liberal Arts (2012) 72% B- EDIT “Some of the insights are a bit simplistic but for most of the running time, the film is an enjoyable diversion.” – The Playlist Jul 10, 2013 Full Review Nobody Walks (2012) 40% B EDIT “Full of humor and humanity, Nobody Walks is an emotionally complex, acutely observed and sensual film and one of the best at Sundance this year.” – The Playlist Jul 10, 2013 Full Review
