Very Good 66 Points 2010

Essential viewing for fans of Exile on Main St. – the essential Stones’ album that set the tone for Seventies rock culture, grew the legend of the greatest rock & roll band in the world and now ranks as one of the greatest in rock history. The Stones had too much fun making it, as this 60 minu…

Brother's Keeper
Good 17 Points 1992

The documentary about the four Ward brothers (Delbert, William, Roscoe and Lyman) of Munnsvile, NY. Delbert was accused of murdering his brother William, and the film largely about Delbert’s trial, but it uses the story to study the Wards as representatives of America’s uneducated rural lower cla…

180° South
Good 17 Points 2010

“Conquistadores of the useless” – that is one quote from the movie that captures a tongue in cheek perspective on what this movie is all about. In 180, you follow the adventures of Jeff Johnson, as he tries to re-trace a journey of a group of men from California to Patagonia and Corcovado …

Inside Job
Good 5 Points 2010

Hard hitting documentary that shows how greed, corruption, and status quo created the great financial meltdown of the past three years. In easy to understand language, the film shows how finanancial institutions engaged in reckless behavior that could have easily been prevented, creating the eco…

Bra Boys

An engrossing documentary about Austrailia’s Maroubra beach “tribe” of young surfers surviving in an urban community rife with gang violence, drugs, etc. What is uniqaue is the brotherhood aspect of the tribe, how the watch eachother’s back, do stupid things together, and experience surfing as t…

Tyson
Good 66 Points 2009

This well crafted biodoc provides a warts-and-all picture of boxing and cultural phenomenon Iron Mike Tyson. Given his pop prominence and the high quality of the film, Tyson will appeal to non-boxing fans, though not to many women given its subject’s twisted attitudes and rape conviction.

T…

Capitalism: A L...
Good 5 Points 2009

Another Michael Moore documentary, this time pointing out the failings of the current economic climate, and decrying them as a byproduct of capitalism. Moore approaches this issue much like a prizefighter who jabs at a bigger opponent, but does not offer a substantial punch, in my opinion, to kn…

Rock I ran. Whoops, make that Rock Iran, as in the music of rebellion from the theocratically oppressed country threatening nuclear Armageddon. This revolutionary paradox makes Persian Cats the most important political movie of the year. A slice-of-life take on the underground rock music sce…

Winnebago Man
Good 5 Points 2009

Jack Rebney has been called “The World’s Most Angry Man” after copies of him cursing his way through the taping of a 1989 Winnebago promotional video were circulated, eventually ending up on youtube.com. Evidently Jack was having a bad day when he filmed the video, as his blooper reel is filled…

African Cats
Good 66 Points 2011

Billed as a warm and fuzzy Disney Nature adventure, African Cats instead is a hair-raising, heartrending drama. It profiles two families, a cheetah and her cubs, and a lioness and her cub, each of which is in mortal danger for nearly the entire movie.

There’s nothing necessarily wrong with …
