Anna Magdalena is about unrequited love, but I don’t need song and dance numbers and a subpar adventure story to reinforce that.

It’s a powerful movie that made me richer for having seen it.

Ballistic Kiss makes a pretty convincing argument for loving a film for its style rather than its substance.

A totally enjoyable film about a very mixed up and dysfunctional, yet likable, group of family and friends.

Tykwer’s attempt is certainly admirable, but it lacks any of the punch or panache that fueled Run Lola Run.

Brilliantly acted and paced hitman action movie that runs out of steam well before the credits.

Not one of Jet Li’s crown jewels, though it’s certainly a far cry better than the pathetic Romeo Must Die.

A movie that touches on many powerful, provocative issues but also leaves me strangely cold and unaffected.

Simply describing this film as a movie about a bunch of Shaolin monks playing soccer might be accurate enough, but it barely scratches the surface.

Yes, it’s silly and cheesy, but what else do you expect from a kung fu movie with the “duck” style?

A wonderful, sensitive movie about the constraints of society on individualism and the requirements of compromise.

This movie has so many ideas and doesn’t know what to do with them all.

At times brilliant and interesting, I often found it slow and just barely limping along.

When the film reaches its conclusion, it’s both a genuine shock and fitting resolution — and all the more tragic.

One wonders if this is the greatest western ever made.

All in all, a so-called classic that misses out on all of the aspects that make a classic western.

I find it very easy to get caught up in Miyazaki’s films, mainly because his films often resemble how I remember seeing the world as a child.

It successfully combines high-tech action sequences with some interesting, if not moving human interest stories.
