Current Reviews

The Twilight Saga: New Moon -- Film Review

The moon may be new and the director may be different, but otherwise, the second installment of the "Twilight" saga remains, for better or worse, exceptionally faithful to its 2008 beginnings. More

Staten Island -- Film Review

Staten Island is regarded as New York's bastard stepchild of a borough, and unfortunately, this film is unlikely to enhance its reputation. » More

Fix -- Film Review

This grungy, microbudget road movie clearly harkens back to the 1960s in terms of its rough-hewn style and druggie orientation. But although it was made just last year, it feels just as dated as that era's films. » More

Rapt -- Film Review

The film lacks star power but shrewdly promoted and with good word of mouth it could pay off handsomely at the boxoffice. » More
