A powerful war film and character piece with a knock out performance from Cumberbatch, who must be destined for Oscar glory.

Just a perfect film! Not only my favorite of 2014 so far, but of the last few years as a whole.

A solid debut comedy from Theodore Melfi, and fine performances.

Despite a spellbindingly beautiful aesthetic, A.J. Edwards’s The Better Angels plays as misguided memorial, a failed attempt to originate a myth already well made.

Emptying the Skies affectingly documents the injustice being performed against our winged neighbors and the plight of the few out to save them. As a revealing piece of cinema, despite its falling prey to convention, it will certainly urge you to peer upward more often in gratitude and awe.

One of the stand out animations of the year; a must watch for all.

A fresh, dark and compelling crime thriller with a phenomenal lead performance by Gyllenhaal. Guaranteed to become one of the most talked about films of the season.

A frustrating bore from start to finish.

Listen Up Philip is a brilliantly vicious blend of the literary and cinematic, a place where I found a bit of myself in each person’s personal journey, even the narcissists.

A film that is not just for Nick Cave fans, but a film that should be seen by all who create.

Fans of Belle and Sebastian’s music will love this, but there is where the love will end.

A documentary that harmonizes the links between comedy and tragedy, a great start for first time filmmaker, Mark Myers.

Gone Girl is surely David Fincher's latest masterwork.

An enjoyable watch but flawed in many ways, and be warned, this isn’t The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel.  

 

 

Our rating: 98%

 

Every living person should see this, Boyhood is the incarnation of modern life.

A good fix of Coogan and Brydon, but nothing more than an enjoyable extension of The Trip.

 

Our rating: 68%

 

A serviceable action film to be beloved by Dad’s and momentarily enjoyed by everyone else.

 

 

Our rating: 50%

 

A decidedly average adaptation that, like its characters, is not as outrageous, insightful or funny as it thinks it is.

 

Our rating: 76%

 

Wetlands is a great director and actor showcase, but the film will certainly not work for everyone. If you aren’t feint of heart towards gross out humor & graphic sexual acts then you should definitely check this one out. Wnendt and Juri are going places.

This Is Where I Leave You is fine enough while you are watching it, I laughed, the film dragged, but upon reflection I don’t have many good things to say about it.

A charming comedy with a lot to say about the power of solidarity, not to be missed.

Jon Stewart's directional debut leaves a lot to be desired.
