Ain't Them Bodi...
Very Good 66 Points 2013

This movie’s about Ruth and Bob, a fictional and extremely laconic Bonnie and Clyde. Plain names it’s got in spades, plainspoken words too. Plain, albeit a bit precious, e.g. the title: Ain’t Them Bodies Saints

Is that a question? No, it’s a Sundance sponsored project that comes up mostly…

Her
Perfect 83 Points 2013

Her is set in Los Angeles by way of Shanghai – palm trees, beaches and lots and lots of super tall towers. People barely engage with other people. They engage with cybots: robotic cyber-beings purringly delivered.

Scarlett Johansen turns in the sexiest performance of her career as Samantha…

Blue Is the War...
Good 17 Points 2013

I can’t really remember why I added this to my Netflix queue, probably something about the description of a hot French woman who is trying to figure out her sexuality. That makes perfect sense. Blue tries to get deep about it all by drawing parallels to the lessons Adele (the woman) is learning …

Charlie Countryman
Very Good 66 Points 2013

Charlie Countryman follows a dweeb of the same name as he flees his hometown in a fog of grief following the death of his Mother. Bucharest is his destination, though perhaps he was supposed to go to Budapest. He’s not sure, just a he’s not sure about most things. He’s the type of naive fool…

Only Lovers Lef...
Perfect 66 Points 2013

Brilliant vampire movie, thy name is Only Lovers Left Alive. Literate, laconic and full of lusciously languorous lassitude, it presents as ageless and au courant. Jim Jarmusch’s undead triumph introduces four vampires, though the V word is never used: Adam & Eve, Kit & Ava. Trust me, they …

Third Person
Very Good 3 Points 2013

Once in a while a different movie comes along delivering a new memory from the theatre, exploring new dimensions of the human experience in a different but refreshing way. Third Person achieves that result. It is a romantic drama distorted by the extremes in emphasis, not enough character devel…

Very Good Girls
Barely OK 17 Points 2013

Dakota Fanning and Elizabeth Olson can’t overcome some really bad writing that causes an ability to get to like the characters. Instead, it all comes across as forced march for girls on a path to lose virginity before heading to college. Yeah right.
