Rating T-Meter Title | Year Review
B+ 84% While We're Young (2015) "Fedoras, vomit, and laughs. Just when should you have your mid-life crisis? " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Apr 11, 2015
B+ 78% Danny Collins (2015) "A completely charming comedy-drama. Al Pacino is mesmerizing as always, and Bobby Cannavale is the standout in an excellent supporting cast. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Apr 8, 2015
C- 43% Effie Gray (2015) "I'm willing to embrace boring British period pieces as much as the next critic. But there are limits. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Apr 2, 2015
C- 85% Wendy and Lucy (2008) "Calling Wendy and Lucy spare is a monument to understatement. It's a drab, low-budget, unadorned film, often lacking the requisite elements that lend movies their motion: plot, conflict, character development, or even a soundtrack. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Mar 27, 2015
A- 98% The Hurt Locker (2009) "One of the best-made films of 2009. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Feb 25, 2015
A 92% Slumdog Millionaire (2008) "It's a wildly engrossing movie that takes us from innocence to salvation. For all of its R-rated grit, it dances to a soulful, graceful, rhythmic cadence grounded in love and dedication. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Feb 22, 2015
B+ 88% Still Alice (2015) "Yes, Julianne Moore will win the Oscar. And yes, this in one depressing film. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Feb 13, 2015
B 74% Kingsman: The Secret Service (2015) "While much of Kingsman is an entertaining spy romp, Vaughn overindulges in some lengthy killing sprees that diminish the overall power of his film. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Feb 13, 2015
C 44% Da Sweet Blood of Jesus (2015) "Spike Lee makes some interesting creative choices, but his film lacks a pulse. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Feb 13, 2015
D 26% Jupiter Ascending (2015) "It might become a midnight cult favorite a few years down the road, when its inherent awfulness reaches it's-so-bad-it's-good status. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Feb 6, 2015
B+ 98% Mr. Turner (2014) "Portrait of the artist: He grunts, he groans, he gropes. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Feb 6, 2015
B 80% Black Sea (2015) "Not one of the all-time great sub movies, but it's an entertaining ride and a gloom-filled glimpse at the darker side of human nature. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Feb 6, 2015
B+ 89% A Most Violent Year (2015) "In case you hadn't noticed yet, Oscar Isaac is the real deal. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Feb 6, 2015

Posted Feb 6, 2015
B 97% Two Days, One Night (2014) "Marion Cotillard shines in this exceedingly true-to-life drama. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Feb 6, 2015
B- 40% Black or White (2015) "Its heart is in the right place, but the story and characters are all a bit too obvious and cliche. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Feb 6, 2015

Posted Jan 23, 2015

Posted Jan 15, 2015
A- 72% American Sniper (2015) "Bradley Cooper is excellent in Clint Eastwood's gripping drama. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Jan 15, 2015
A 96% Argo (2012) "How do you mix a sweaty thriller with Wag the Dog-like chicanery and one-liners? He pulls it off, in part because the backdrops and costumes are so authentic and the performances so straightforward. It is also his technique. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Jan 13, 2015
A 100% Matt Shepard is a Friend of Mine (2015) "Shepard inspired an anti-hate-crime movement, and his legacy lives on. Josue's film helps us discover who the young man was behind all those headlines. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
Posted Jan 8, 2015

Posted Jan 5, 2015

Posted Oct 17, 2014
A- 88% Gone Girl (2014) "Gillian Flynn proves you can adapt your own novel for the screen and succeed. Terrific performances by Ben Affleck, Rosamund Pike and Carrie Coon. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer

Posted Oct 3, 2014

Posted Oct 3, 2014
B- 75% The Boxtrolls (2014) "Eggs and Winnie make for an adorable duo and although the film is sluggish at times, particularly in the early going, directors Graham Annable and Anthony Stacchi do their best to inject playful absurdities into this weird little world. " ‐ Cleveland Plain Dealer
