Title Year Rating Rank Review
Whiplash2014861 - Together Damien Chazelle, J.K. Simmons, and Miles Teller have created a film here that redefines the word "intensity".
Sugar2008852 - It's only a quasi-baseball movie. More than anything, it's a swan song on the varying definitions of the American Dream.
Take Shelter2011843 - While the apocalypse angle will be the main pull for prospective audiences, its the film's honest, raw depiction of a family struggling with mental illness that makes it so unforgettable.
West of Memphis2012814 - 'West of Memphis' is both methodical yet vibrant in the way it illustrates how a system called the Justice System all too often only creates more victims of varying degrees.
A Separation2011805 - I don't wish people would see this movie because it's THAT good, I wish people would see this movie because it does such a wonderful job of dismissing so many ignorant stereotypes.
Company You Keep, The2013805 - What starts out at a terrific thriller-esque pace dies down into drab and uninspiring philosophical commentary.
Smashed2012805 - 'Smashed' isn't EVERY alcoholic's story, but it is SOME alcoholic's story. And, quite frankly, that's good enough.
Dogtown and Z-Boys2001788 - It's an interesting little documentary that successfully explains how skateboarding's "rebellious" culture is rooted in its ancestry.
Moon2009788 - It's basically 'The Island' -- the film Michael Bay did four years prior -- but exponentially better.
All About My Mother19996910 - Truly peculiar, in both good and bad ways.
Foxcatcher20146511 - Where the film would have you believe it's being meticulous, it's actually just dragging it's feet. The fact that Ruffalo, Tatum, and Carrell all turn in remarkable performances is wasted by the fact that you're constantly looking at your watch.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon20036312 - One of the most iconic action films ever. The downside? That's all it was. If you didn't read the subtitles, you really didn't miss much.
Before Midnight20135713 - Nine years from now, I'm sure we can look forward to yet another feature length two-person conversation that leaves us wholly unsatisfied.
Midnight in Paris20115514 - Too odd for its own good. Aside from the history hysteria, there's not much worth sticking around for.
