Watch Someday This Pain Will Be Useful to You Movie HD Streaming Someday This Pain Will Be Useful to You is a heart warming, funny and passionate portrait of a confused New York teenager, James Sveck, played by up-and-coming star Toby Regbo, and his loving, eccentric and dysfunctional family. James's staunch non-conformism leads him to teenage mistakes that are hard to undo. He refuses to go to college, after being accepted at Brown, and is interested in nothing - barring visits to his enigmatic, free-spirited grandmother Nanette, played by Oscar winner Ellen Burstyn, the only one who seems to understand just how lost a restless 17-year-old can feel while trying to find himself in a confusing world. -- (C) Official Site Release Date Someday This Pain Will Be Useful to You Oct 5, 2012 Limited

Review For Someday This Pain Will Be Useful to You
This cliche-ridden coming of age story is as painfully awkward as its troubled teen protagonist. Frank Scheck-Hollywood Reporter Several kinds of excruciating. Neil Genzlinger-New York Times His pain may be useful to James someday, but to viewers, it's annoying right here and now. Joe Neumaier-New York Daily News These 2-D characters might as well be wearing T-shirts that say things like "Predatory College Professor" and "Self-Obsessed Father" on them. Chris Packham-Village Voice The film is a pleasant watch, filled with nice little moments of comedy and tenderness, and optimistic about the fate of dreamers who happen to be a little slow out of the starting gate. Rene Rodriguez-Miami Herald Listless coming-of-age drama about teen's ho-hum "problems." S. Jhoanna Robledo-Common Sense Media The film takes itself too seriously while it tackles familiar territory. Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com It's not exactly a trainwreck of a movie, but Someday This Pain is so void of depth and meaning, it often resembles a parody of the bruised teen subgenre. Brian Orndorf-Blu-ray.com The actors work overtime to make this would-be sensitive study of troubled youth work, but are undone by the windy triteness of the script. David Noh-Film Journal International It might actually make audiences understand the urge to bully. Alison Willmore-AV Club Roberto Faenza shoots his Manhattan-set action with a glossiness that's as bland as the soundtrack ballads. Nick Schager-Slant Magazine

Review For Trade of Innocents
The film fills up its hour-and-a-half harmlessly enough, but nothing's really memorable. Which is rather, bitterly, ironic. Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger The movie screams of a low budget and pedestrian vision ... Farran Smith Nehme-New York Post Yes, child trafficking is horrific; but embedding your raise-the-alarm mission in a film this inept runs the risk of arousing more amusement than activism. Jeannette Catsoulis-New York Times Not for the first time in films, noble intent is at odds with aesthetics. Marsha McCreadie-Village Voice A middling thriller wrapped around a compelling lecture about the child sex trade in Southeast Asia... Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service A message movie whose only subtlety is found in the portrayal of Adderly, a sexual predator who actually believes in some twisted way that he loves the children whose childhoods he's destroys. Maitland McDonagh-Film Journal International Trade of Innocents is as much a piece of social-justice campaigning as it is a work unto itself, an important fact to remember when considering its many flaws. Tomas Hachard-Slant Magazine

Watch Decoding Deepak Movie HD Streaming

Watch Decoding Deepak Movie HD Streaming Film-maker and journalist Gotham Chopra embarks on a year long roadtrip with his father Deepak Chopra in an attempt to resolve the spiritual icon he is to the world vs. the real man known to his family. From devoted disciples that range from Lady Gaga to lost souls searching for themselves in the red rock deserts of Sedona, Gotham begins to paint a raw portrait of his dad that only a son can. The film travels across the planet chronicling colorful Deepak activities - from a traditional monk ordainment in Thailand to a literal decoding of ancient family registers in rural India. On the homefront, Gotham also takes a closer look at the expansive spiritual empire his father has built over his 25 year career that initially was conceived out of Deepak's own deep personal and spiritual dissatisfaction, and a decidedly non-spiritual (and boozy) origin. -- (C) Official Site Release Date Decoding Deepak Oct 5, 2012 Limited

Review For Decoding Deepak
There is precious little table-turning or real insight in "Decoding Deepak" - unless uncovering a passion for Starbucks and a preference for upscale hotels counts as takedown material. Mark Olsen-Los Angeles Times "Decoding" ultimately becomes Gotham's gentle tribute to Dad, who shall probably provide handsomely for his heirs. It is also a tacit endorsement of Chopra Inc. Andy Webster-New York Times While Decoding offers some tantalizing insights into the celebrity guru, the movie, at its core, is playing out daddy issues as the filmmaker wonders aloud about whether his dad has gotten too big for his britches. Scott Bowles-USA Today Like its subject, the movie is not as calculating as it seems. Joe Neumaier-New York Daily News As much an exercise in self-help as it is a demystification of its title character. Michael Nordine-Village Voice Tthe film feels amateurish and leaves a lot to be desired as a documentary on one of the world's biggest spiritual icons. Emily Kirkpatrick-Paste Magazine Glossy tribute from a son to his eminent guru of a papa is not so different, even with all that spirituality, from recent film portraits of Katy Perry and Justin Bieber. David Noh-Film Journal International A documentary following Deepak Chopra, a fireball of energy, creativity and spiritual vision, on the road for a year, filmed by his son. Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat-Spirituality and Practice Unlike his father, Gotham Chopra is more interested in his own latent daddy issues than with questions of cosmic import.

Watch Just 45 Minutes From Broadway Movie HD Streaming Whether trodding the boards for paying audiences or performing at the kitchen table for her theatrical family (mother Diane Salinger, father Jack Heller, uncle David Proval, boarder Harriet Schock) the only place Pandora Isaacs (Tanna Frederick) has ever felt truly safe and entirely at home is onstage. Like so many actors she is not completely sure about the difference between real life and the theater and - as she willingly admits - she really doesn't want to. Stinging from a recent romantic break-up, she retreats to the safety of her parents' ramshackle upstate country house - just 45 minutes from Broadway- where her non-theatrical sister (Julie Davis) and her sister's non-Jewish fiance (Judd Nelson) are also arriving for the weekend and the family's yearly Passover Seder, which is presided over by another uncle (Michael Emil).

Review For Just 45 Minutes From Broadway
You will either laugh or cringe, depending on your enjoyment of comic melodrama (the kind view) or distaste for overindulged actors (the not-so-kind view). David Lewis-San Francisco Chronicle Altogether, it comes to resemble theater filmed by Paul Greengrass. Michael Nordine-Village Voice Though Jaglom intends for us to be charmed by show folk, the amateurish performances and perennially misjudged direction wind up portraying them instead as boundlessly needy narcissists. Elizabeth Weitzman-New York Daily News The boldness is welcome, the execution awkward. David DeWitt-New York Times Self-consciously cribbing from Chekhov by way of Robert Altman, the filmmaker convenes an extended family of stage actors at a decaying country house in New Rochelle, where the Ambien-enhanced emotional pitch lingers north of perpetual hysteria. Sam Adams-Time Out New York An investment in theatrical self-indulgence with diminishing returns. Robert Abele-Los Angeles Times Self-indulgent drama in which braying actors spout utter twaddle about the Thea-tah. David Noh-Film Journal International Henry Jaglom applies what must by now qualify as a tradition of pointless agitation to the disruption of theater. Unsurprisingly, the results are disastrous.

Watch Flight of the Butterflies Movie HD Streaming

Watch Flight of the Butterflies Movie HD Streaming It's a natural history epic. It's a compelling detective story. It's a scientific adventure at its best. It took Dr. Fred Urquhart almost 40 years to discover the monarch butterflies' secret hideaway and prove the most incredible migration on Earth. Following the year-long annual migration cycle of the butterflies, the award-winning production team filmed hundreds of millions of monarchs in their remote overwintering sanctuaries in Mexico in 2011 and again in 2012 and also along their migratory routes from Canada, across the U.S. and into Mexico. The technology of IMAX immerses you in the astounding migration experience as two generations of the butterflies migrate north and then a Super Generation miraculously finds its way from Canada to a few isolated mountaintops in Mexico - to a place it has never been! -- (C) Official Site Release Date Flight of the Butterflies Oct 1, 2012 Limited

Review For Flight of the Butterflies
It's a story that begins and ends in Toronto and returns every year - and it's never been so spectacularly and passionately retold until now. Marco Chown Oved-Toronto Star Flight of the Butterflies stands out as one of the best of its genre. Ivan Semeniuk-Globe and Mail A feast for the eyes and clearly a labor of love, "Flight of the Butterflies" is one of the must-see 3-D IMAX movies. John Hartl-Seattle Times It's easy to forget "Flight of the Butterflies" is just a movie, as the 3-D documentary about monarch migrations looks and sounds so much like nature. Stephanie Merry-Washington Post The filmmakers turn classroom material into a dense procedural. Meanwhile, they capture phenomenal footage of the monarch in its various stages, from egg to chrysalis to the butterfly that hates winter as much as I do. Radheyan Simonpillai-NOW Toronto At the preview...the 3D effect had scores of kids reaching out to touch the butterflies. It was as gorgeous a sight to behold as anything on the giant Imax screen. Jim Schembri-3AW Short, easy-to-like and informative movie is refreshingly upbeat, as bright as its subject, and at just under 45 minutes, a perfect entertainment for restless youngsters.

Review For Looper
Yes, it's a B movie sci-fi thriller, but not many prestige pictures have this much going on underneath the surface. Tom Charity-CNN.com That first hour cooks. And the second hour brings Emily Blunt into the story, which is a fine thing for any second half to offer. Michael Phillips-Chicago Tribune If the whole thing leaves you rubbing your temples, just a bit... well, this headache's sort of worth it. Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger The reasoning behind all this may not reward prolonged inspection, but Johnson is smart enough to press onward with his plot, leaving us with neither the time nor the desire to linger over the logic ... Anthony Lane-New Yorker Writer-director Rian Johnson establishes himself as an original talent who clearly believes storytelling must prevail. Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com A mind-bending ride that is not afraid to slow down now and again, to explore themes of regret and redemption, solitude and sacrifice, love and loss. It's a movie worth seeing and, perhaps, going back to see again. Christopher Orr-The Atlantic With a heady script, stunning performances and fist-pumping action, LOOPER is the most enjoyable combination of immensely watchable yet poignant, even cerebral. Meredith Borders-Badass Digest If it weren't for its gaping plot holes, this could be one of this century's best science fiction features. Wesley Lovell-Cinema Sight A fresh, intelligent and action-packed addition to the time-travel anthology. Tom Glasson-Concrete Playground Looper injects the sci-fi actioneer with a much-needed jolt of moral consciousness. Chuck Bowen-Slant Magazine Not quite the time travel story science fiction fans were hoping for, alas. James O'Ehley-Sci-Fi Movie Page [Looper] may be the best sci-fi thriller to hit the theaters since 1995's Twelve Monkeys. Michael Burgin-Paste Magazine Is it derivative? Not really; just a reminder that cinema, like history, is on a continuous loop, forever repeating itself. Peter Keough-Boston Phoenix Despite its confusing logic and ornate storyline, Looper still grabs the audience with the raw emotional storyline on the farm and the constant popping back and forth in time. It's a head-scratching ride, but a fun one nonetheless. Matthew Odam-Austin American-Statesman Call it the coolest, most complex sci-fi of 2012 and the best movie of its kind since "Inception." Pow! What a ride! Paul Chambers-Movie Chambers Looper has its highs and lows, but it remains one of the more original sci-fi films to come out in some time. Jeff Beck-We Got This Covered Joseph Gordon-Levitt continues to prove to be one of the best actors at selecting scripts. Phil Villarreal-OK! Magazine Accessible to a general audience while still having moments that will warm any film geek's heart, this is the kind of genre film that elevates the form. Jason Gorber-Twitch The movie is morally murky, to put it lightly, and that's a bit refreshing; we're made to think about why we want the protagonists to achieve their goals. Rob Gonsalves-eFilmCritic.com Intelligent, extremely imaginative, visually stunning and constantly surprising, this is filmmaking of the highest order from Rian Johnson. CJ Johnson-ABC Radio (Australia) Looper is among the cleverest, most skillfully crafted and entertaining sci-fi thrillers of the past 20 years. Jay Antani-Cinema Writer The smartest, most stylish and most outright entertaining science-fiction film of the year. Andy Lea-Daily Star A thought-provoking, heart-pounding take on the applications and ethics of time travel which, oddly enough, doubles up as a lesson in the importance of good parenting. -Film4

Review For Hotel Transylvania
No one does saccharine like Adam Sandler. The man can be sharp, angry and funny - but when he lays on the sweetness, it's like drowning in an avalanche of Tate & Lyle. Tom Huddleston-Time Out The 3-D adds a vertiginous thrill to a chase on flying tables and a touch of claustrophobia to a maze of underground corridors. Nell Minow-Chicago Sun-Times Not since Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein have the great Universal monsters been subjected to such dismal treatment. James Berardinelli-ReelViews Even the animation is ugly. Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger Hotel Transylvania may lack the emotional oomph of Pixar's best efforts, but it makes up for it with rapid-fire gags and an unflagging pace that makes this a rare all-ages treat. Alonso Duralde-The Wrap A fast, funny and wildly inventive animated tale with enough laughs and heart to appeal to audiences of all ages. Bruce Demara-Toronto Star I was disappointed that this one didn't snag a best animated film Oscar nomination, because it was my second favorite movie in the category last year, after Wreck it Ralph. Phil Villarreal-OK! Magazine A tyke-friendly adventure teaching a universal message of tolerance via the oft-repeated maxim that monsters are people, too! Kam Williams-Sly Fox Kids will enjoy Hotel Transylvania, and it won't bore the socks off adults too. Sam Bathe-Fan The Fire There's a good chance that children under 10 will find "Hotel Transylvania" entertaining, because it's as non-threatening as can be and the jokes are obvious. There's an equally good chance that everyone else will wander off . . . James Plath-Movie Metropolis From the spooked start, the comic-rhythm dial's set to bulldozer. Whizzes through the superficially amusing conceit without actually taking much time to craft cunning comedy. Like a sugar-rushed Count Chocula-meets-Fawlty-Towers idea. Brian Gibson-Vue Weekly (Edmonton, Canada) This is a perfectly O.K. animated film. The animation is really quite good. The characters are interesting, but the predictable story isn't very compelling. It is a slightly above average animated feature. Robert Roten-Laramie Movie Scope Director Genndy Tartakovsky has fashioned something even the most sensitive little flowers in your family can enjoy. Andy Lea-Daily Star Hotel Transylvania might be useful as a primer to introduce young film fans to some classic screen creatures, but it falls way behind the standard set by wittier animations from the likes of Pixar and Aardman. Lewis Corner-Digital Spy The concept of monsters as the good guys and humans as the villains is nothing new in the realm of movies, but Tartakovsky keeps things moving along at a satisfying pace as the stellar voice cast have a field day with their iconic characters. Jason Buchanan-TV Guide's Movie Guide ... another empty-calorie animated feature ... Jim Lane-Sacramento News & Review Checking into this hotel will give you a thrill and get you in the mood for Halloween. Roz Laws-Birmingham Post It's not good enough to actually like, nor is it bad enough to get worked up about. Ken Hanke-Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) Primarily concerned with ensuring that young viewers aren't bored, it restlessly relies on juvenile humour, uninspiring musical numbers and wacky, Looney Tunes-type chases. Stephen Carty-Flix Capacitor With a script by that manages to dilute Adam Sandler's baser instincts with a real love for Universal monsters, Hotel Transylvania is no Grown Ups-style torture. James White-SFX Magazine It's inventive, wittily drawn, macabre in a Charles Addams vein, and overlong. Children will find it as much fun as Halloween. Philip French-Observer [UK] The characters and story, forged by six different directors and many more writers over a six-year-production stint, leave little room for Tartakovsky tricks and tics. Tara Brady-Irish Times Eye-catching animation and non-stop jokes make this animated monster movie a lot more fun than we expect. It's packed with gross-out gags that will keep kids laughing, plus clever character-based humour for the grown-ups. Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com The ultimate message about ignorance being the scariest thing of all is a sincere one, but it gets lost in the nonstop, eager-to-please, uninspired zaniness. Alan Jones-Radio Times There is not much originality here, particularly not a daughter wanting to escape an overprotective parent - Brave and Tangled did this much better - and the 3D hardly registers. Alex Zane-Sun Online Sandler's second venture into animation is almost as unfunny as his horrendous Eight Crazy Nights, ten years ago. Christopher Tookey-Daily Mail [UK]

Review For Won't Back Down
Social-issue movies can have real societal impact. That's why Won't Back Down, which presses a lot of hot buttons, deserves to be taken seriously, and criticized seriously, on its own terms. Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor Won't Back Down doesn't wholly make the grade. Bruce Demara-Toronto Star Americans desperately need to have some difficult conversations about the state of public education, but Won't Back Down goes about the task too awkwardly to be helpful or interesting. Connie Ogle-Miami Herald "Won't Back Down" details a bureaucratic process, and yet it plays more like an intense, emotional movie about parents and children. Mick LaSalle-San Francisco Chronicle So didactic that viewers are likely to feel less uplifted than lectured. Ann Hornaday-Washington Post The film makes a serious effort to present the other side's points. Kyle Smith-New York Post 'Dumbing down' a film about educational reform defeats any point; while proficiently made, Won't Back Down's glib feel-good message deserves to fall on deaf ears. Eddie Harrison-The List As terrible as it sounds. Alistair Harkness-Scotsman An altogether crude, melodramatic and unhelpful picture. Philip French-Observer [UK] More anti-union propaganda masquerading as entertainment. -This is London All efforts to add zest to a serious subject fail. Grant Rollings-Sun Online A straight-talking, partisan account about the failings of a broken system and a band of women who argued for better for their children. Joe Walsh-Little White Lies It is well meant, undoubtedly about something that matters, and it bends over backwards not to trash the teachers' unions gratuitously, but amid the attempts at gritty reality, I found the happy-ending imperative unconvincing. Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK] The forces of unionism are mainly pilloried as lazy sell-outs, which is a pity, because a lot of other tangy issues come into play here. Tim Robey-Daily Telegraph Emotionally engaging drama that compensates for its predictability with a pair of terrific performances by Maggie Gyllenhaal and Viola Davis, though it's also a little fuzzy on the actual details. Matthew Turner-ViewLondon Shamelessly manipulative, this propagandist drama purports to champion the democratisation of parents' choice yet is little more than a big, cinematic union bashing stick. -Sky Movies You might find the political tub-thumping behind this cockle-warming drama a tad disconcerting. Andy Lea-Daily Star

Like many parties, this film about a gay bachelor party during Provincetown's Bear Week goes on for too long.

Farran Smith Nehme-New York Post The film is funny, weepy, and hairy all the way to the barrel-chested-and utterly predictable-end.

Review For Solomon Kane
Few characters have much to do but grunt and scream and bleed. Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger Been there, done that. Lou Lumenick-New York Post "Solomon Kane" succeeds by embracing its identity as a straightforward genre exercise, complete with bone-crunching and blood-spurting action. By not aiming for more, it hits its target. Mark Olsen-Los Angeles Times Who knew there were skinhead and zombie equivalents in late-Elizabethan England? Mark Feeney-Boston Globe It's hardly original (and Max von Sydow is wasted in brief scenes as Kane's father), but "Solomon Kane" is worthy of big-screen appreciation. Jeff Shannon-Seattle Times Mr. Basset is too enamored of the usual action film clichés ... But he has a graphic visual style that suits the simplistic material and he keeps you watching even as the wet, sucking sounds of skewered flesh grows tedious. Manohla Dargis-New York Times It's not everyone's cup of bloody tea, but an unapologetic genre treat for those willing to dive in. Mark Zhuravsky-The Playlist Formulaic, but it settles down into a fine if square-jawed groove, delivering rousing adventure of a sort which should generally please fans of throwback, morally black-and-white entertainment. Brent Simon-Shockya.com Director Michael J. Bassett seems to know how to correctly handle the material, giving it a lightness of touch but also enough bloody and shocking spectacle to stir up viewers. Jeffrey M. Anderson-Common Sense Media Writer/director Michael J. Bassett stages the carnage under so much rain-soaked filth, you can almost smell the stench. It's a good stench. Brett Michel-Boston Phoenix Uneven and far less deep that it believes itself to be, Solomon Kane is nevertheless a solid B-movie diversion that excels when sticking to its pulpy, action-fantasy roots. Simon Brookfield-We Got This Covered The script by director Michael J. Bassett wallows in formula and takes itself too seriously. Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com If some of the special effects aren't so special and the theology is bit foggy, director Bassett knows that there is almost nothing more inherently scary than a dark forest and leading man Purefoy brings conviction to Kane. James Verniere-Boston Herald Bassett gives us plenty of reasons to respect his tale, then refuses to break that contract with cheap tricks or shoddy delivery. Rob Vaux-Mania.com The fight choreography has a gracefulness bordering on elegance, and so it's a shame that these standalone thrills aren't better integrated into the film as a fully formed narrative whole. Calum Marsh-Slant Magazine Lacking a charismatic lead or villain, struggling with its big themes, it's not surprising this 2009 picture sat on the shelf for so long. Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service The results suggest a compelling movie could be made from the material, even if it isn't this one. Keith Phipps-AV Club

Watch Pitch Perfect Movie HD Streaming

Watch Pitch Perfect Movie HD Streaming Beca (Anna Kendrick) is that girl who'd rather listen to what's coming out of her headphones than what's coming out of you. Arriving at her new college, she finds herself not right for any clique but somehow is muscled into one that she never would have picked on her own: alongside mean girls, sweet girls and weird girls whose only thing in common is how good they sound when they sing together, in the new out-loud comedy Pitch Perfect. When Beca takes this acoustic singing group out of their world of traditional arrangements and perfect harmonies into all-new mash-ups, they fight to climb their way to the top of the cutthroat world of college a cappella. This could wind up either the coolest thing they'll ever do or the most insane, and it will probably be a little of both. -- (C) Universal Release Date Pitch Perfect Oct 5, 2012 Limited

Review For Pitch Perfect
'30 Rock' and 'New Girl' writer Kay Cannon has created brilliant characters. Cath Clarke-Time Out The girls, for the most part, are genuinely funny, weird, real, and, most excitingly, confident. Laura Beck-Village Voice Warblers win the day in this sweet-natured film (based on a swell behind-the-scenes book by Mickey Rapkin) about the life and loves of collegians from competing a-cappella groups. Bruce Diones-New Yorker This is one of the strangest and also one of the more entertaining movies of the year. Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com Cannon doesn't go in for rococo hipster badinage in the vein of Diablo Cody. She can pare down a joke to its essence ... David Edelstein-New York Magazine What we have here is a not-very-funny college comedy for tweens, full of unappealing characters (and although the musical arrangements are fun, some truly unimaginative choreography). Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger On paper, this all looks oh-so High School Musical: The College Years, but the beauty of Pitch Perfect is they way it turns its formulaic moments into unexpected hilarity. Matt Neal-The Standard Mostly works because the characters are engaging and the musical performances well-chosen and well-done Stephen Silver-EntertainmentTell Is Pitch Perfect this year's Bridesmaids? If by that we mean a thoroughly likable and surprisingly funny comedy, then yes, I suppose it is. Martin Roberts-Fan The Fire The sung numbers are pretty dreadful but you can't have everything. Derek Malcolm-This is London It's 80% affectionate parody of this sort of musical, but the numbers are taken seriously and are admirably choreographed, and the performances are sprightly. Philip French-Observer [UK] ( ... ) after several years of Hollywood digging into ever deeper wells of gross-out smut, this is a real reversal of fortune. Graham Young-Birmingham Mail There are things to whinge about here. But Pitch Perfect proves impossible to resist. Donald Clarke-Irish Times It's a lightweight confection, but Pitch Perfect is great fun while the fat lady (and the skinny one) sings. Karen Krizanovich-Radio Times As far as the so-called humour goes, we're operating on a sliding scale from lazy to downright offensive. Emma Dibdin-Digital Spy Even if Pitch Perfect doesn't stand up to much scrutiny, it's still an enjoyable romp on the surface. Joe Cunningham-HeyUGuys There are great moments and the songs are well put together and catchy. Alex Zane-Sun Online It's like a superior, wittier double-episode of Glee. Christopher Tookey-Daily Mail [UK] The song's the same, but Pitch Perfect is a great cover version. Henry Barnes-Guardian [UK] Amusing though the movie can be, there's something missing in the warmth department. Like songs without accompaniment, its jokes lack any charm or liking for the characters. Tim Robey-Daily Telegraph The plot won't surprise but it's fun and freaky in equal measure. Henry Fitzherbert-Daily Express The Spinal Tap of unaccompanied singing. Nigel Andrews-Financial Times Hugely enjoyable comedy that hits all the right notes, thanks to a razor-sharp script, impressively staged musical numbers and a pair of brilliant comic performances from Anna Kendrick and Rebel Wilson. Matthew Turner-ViewLondon Kendrick's alt-girl good-naturedly holds it all together, leaving room for Australian star Wilson to really shine with some inspired improv while comedy nuggets are strewn elsewhere ... Tim Evans-Sky Movies Oh, the gag-packed trailer spoiled the entire film. David Jenkins-Little White Lies Pitch Perfect is the most musical fun we've had since Hairspray. Graham Young-Birmingham Post

Review For The Hole
No one understands that giddy rush of sugar buzz cinema better than director Joe Dante. Mark Olsen-Los Angeles Times It's good to welcome back one of the undisputed masters of modern genre cinema -- and adventurous kids will love it. Tom Huddleston-Time Out Cool it may be, but scary (or even mildly shudder-inducing) it ain't. Derek Elley-Variety Sadly, the picture is just too mild for its own good. Jeremy Wheeler-TV Guide's Movie Guide Curb your expectations and know you're going into a film about how curious children overcome their fears, not how malevolent darkness torments a group of unsuspecting "victims." Matt Donato-We Got This Covered A refreshing example of how to make a film for a specific demographic the right way. ... Smart, scary and fun as hell. William Bibbiani-CraveOnline Entertaining, with a welcome sense of mischief, The Hole plays to Dante's strengths, returning him to a suburban battleground where young characters face off against an unstoppable, often knee-high malevolent force. Brian Orndorf-Blu-ray.com Catch THE HOLE in 3-D if you can, but watch it with your kids during this approaching Halloween. You might remember a time when horror was fun and creepy and less violent and exploitative. Jonathan W. Hickman-Daily Film Fix Now that it's finally here, it proves a sight better than its direct-to-video credentials suggest. Rob Vaux-Mania.com All the elements are here, they just don't add up to a satisfying whole. Nathan Rabin-AV Club If you enjoyed recent scary-but-kid-safe thrillers like Don't Be Afraid of the Dark or Super 8 - albeit toned down for pre-teens - then The Hole is definitely worth a peek. Staci Layne Wilson-Horror.com A fun kids horror film that may be a minor work for Dante, but still very satisfying. Thomas Caldwell-Cinema Autopsy Will be instantly recognizable to anyone who grew up watching movies in the 1980s! James O'Ehley-Sci-Fi Movie Page This is scary, thrilling stuff, especially considering there's very little actual violence or gore. -Film4 The return of director Joe Dante would be more welcome if his children's horror-thriller weren't so tepid. Derek Malcolm-This is London Director Dante knows a thing or two about making teen thrillers, and this film gets the atmosphere just right without indulging in cheap movie gimmicks. Rich Cline-Shadows on the Wall Scarier than any of this year's 18-rated horror crop. Robbie Collin-News of the World Scary fun for young teens. Allan Hunter-Daily Express With the 1980s increasingly looking like a golden age for live-action family blockbusters, Joe Dante, the decade's most subversive practitioner of the form, makes a welcome return... Alistair Harkness-Scotsman Dante delivers some terrific spine-tingling chills on the way towards a disappointingly overblown climax. Marc Lee-Daily Telegraph It's the kind of knockabout, kid's-eye-view comedy-horror that hasn't been made for a while, with some nasty, frightening touches, but expertly encased in a distinctive family-movie aesthetic. Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]

Watch Headshot Movie HD Streaming

Watch Headshot Movie HD Streaming A darkly turbulent crime noir from Thai new wave director Pen-ek Ratanaruang, Headshot is an existential thriller, ripe with shadowy paranoia that will turn your world upside-down, literally. This disorienting game of cat and mouse is played out in present-day Thailand, where corruption runs rampant and the good die young. When Tul, a straight-laced cop, is blackmailed by a powerful politician he soon becomes disillusioned by the state of human nature and, in his vengeful condition, is recruited to become a hitman for an iconoclastic group aimed at eliminating those who are above the law. But when a devastating blow turns Tul's vision upside-down, he finds himself engulfed by doubt, unaware of whether the condition is medical or a result of karmic retribution. -- (C) Official Site Release Date Headshot Sep 28, 2012 Limited

Review For Headshot
While there are some great twists and revelations here, I just kept wishing it would stop with all the cinematic tricks and get to more conventional, straight- forward storytelling. Doug Knoop-Seattle Times A dreamy, elliptical neo-noir about a cop turned killer turned something else altogether. Manohla Dargis-New York Times Neither fresh nor especially satisfying, but Ratanaruang distinguishes the hunt with his fluid kineticism, especially in the just-a-touch-too-infrequent shoot-outs and beatdowns. Alan Scherstuhl-Village Voice Its vision of contemporary Thailand is recognizable as another society undeserving of redemption, but worthy of poetry. Eric Hynes-Time Out New York If the titular headshot leaves Tul with inverted vision, the film too turns the characteristics of genre upside-down, defamiliarising everything - an effect that is helped considerably by Ratanaruang's way with moody stylisation. Anton Bitel-Little White Lies The visual contrast between the ultraviolent showdowns and the quieter, more character-driven moments is striking. Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com This Thai crime thriller has some novel ideas and is strikingly shot, but a jumbled, overreaching narrative robs it of cohesion. Adam Ross-The Aristocrat Headshot is, unfortunately, far better with ideas than with narrative. Alison Willmore-AV Club This "Buddhist film noir," as writer-director Pen-ek Ratanaruang calls it, is surprisingly slow-moving and soulful for a film full of double-crosses and cold-blooded killing. Elise Nakhnikian-Slant Magazine A crisp crime thriller with a perfectly calibrated atmosphere Tom Clift-Moviedex It's wholly unfair to judge a movie on what it could have been, but few films place their potential on a pedestal and fail to engage it like Headshot. Cole Abaius-Film School Rejects

Watch The Other Dream Team Movie HD Streaming Led by the unique skills of Sarunas Marciulionis and Arvydas Sabonis, the 1992 Lithuanian Olympic basketball team helped their country break free from the shackles of Communism. After leading the USSR to a gold medal (and victory over the U.S.A.) at the '88 Seoul Olympics, Marciulionis and Sabonis were poster boys for the Soviet sports machine. Four year later, after the fall of the Soviet Union, they emerged as symbols of democracy, willing newly-independent Lithuania to the medal stand in Barcelona. The film documents the Lithuanians' experiences behind the Iron Curtain, where elite athletes were subjected to the vagaries of Communist rule. -- (C) Official Site Release Date The Other Dream Team Sep 28, 2012 Limited

Review For The Other Dream Team
You don't have to give a hoot about basketball to enjoy this movie. This is a movie about identifying with, admiring and responding to achievement in any form. Tom Long-Detroit News It is a dream fulfilled. Dave Hoekstra-Chicago Sun-Times Here's a twist on the plucky underdog sports movie. The Other Dream Team adds rock 'n' roll and eastern European history to the rah-rah mix. Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune Adding detailed historical context, the quirky feel-good story becomes a tragedy and a lesson. And that makes the victories resonate even more. Peter Hartlaub-San Francisco Chronicle Clearly, there's a story here. The documentary "The Other Dream Team" tells it in a smart, lively, if somewhat hectic fashion. Mark Feeney-Boston Globe An inspirational if overly talkative new documentary that lives at the intersection of nationalism and sport. Chris Vognar-Dallas Morning News ...a deeply interesting, if conventionally structured and unflashy, documentary ... about the reassertion of national identity after generations of foreign oppression and the role of sport in nation building. Philip Martin-Arkansas Democrat-Gazette The Other Dream Team is both an exceptional and exceptionally inspiring film. Jean Lowerison-ReviewExpress.com In an era when so much of the focus in sports is on the glam and the glitz, it's nice to be reminded that it can still be about heart and soul, too. Cary Darling-Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com The Other Dream Team becomes less a simple paean to the triumph of the human spirit and more an admission of life's complexity and messiness. Matt Prigge-Philadelphia Weekly The Other Dream Team wasn't the 1992 Lithuanian Basketball movie that I necessarily wanted, but it could absolutely be the 1992 Lithuanian Basketball movie that you want, assuming you want such a thing. Dan Fienberg-HitFix Shows sports can have other goals besides winning. Chris Foran-Milwaukee Journal Sentinel "The Other Dream Team" is a saga of hope, courage and overcoming adversity and how a sport and its players helped a nation rekindle its voice and place on the world stage. Bob Bloom-Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN) If you root for documentaries with heart, "The Other Dream Team" is a slam dunk. Joe Williams-St. Louis Post-Dispatch The lack of focus makes for a lackluster Documentary. Austin Kennedy-Sin Magazine This true-life sports story has a little of the same magic "Hoosiers" has. Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)-St. Paul Pioneer Press ...a story that should be heard and remembered, because it reminds you that sometimes a sporting event carries meaning far outside the confines of the sport itself. Sarah Boslaugh-PopMatters An exceptional inspirational sports movie, precisely because the stakes were so high. Frank Swietek-One Guy's Opinion Quite often the film veers away from their stories to become a flag-waving work of Lithuanian nationalism. Gerald Peary-Boston Phoenix

Watch The Iran Job Movie HD Streaming The Iran Job follows American basketball player Kevin Sheppard as he accepts a job to play in one of the world's most feared countries: Iran. With tensions running high between Iran and the West, Kevin tries to separate sports from politics only to find that politics is impossible to escape in Iran. Along the way he forms an unlikely alliance with three outspoken Iranian women. Thanks to these women, his apartment turns into an oasis of free speech, where they discuss everything from politics to religion to gender roles. Kevin's season in Iran culminates in something much bigger than basketball: the uprising and subsequent suppression of Iran's reformist Green Movement - a powerful prelude to the sweeping changes across the Middle East in the wake of the Arab Spring. -- (C) Official Site Release Date The Iran Job Sep 28, 2012 Limited

Review For The Iran Job
The film takes a distinctly American approach to Iranian matters of gender relations and religious extremism, shedding little light on subjects that are far more complicated than Schauder makes them out to be. Drew Hunt-Chicago Reader I confess to being a sucker for sports movies, the ones with the "Big Game" at the end. "The Iran Job" has all the requisite elements of that cinematic subgenre, but strives for something deeper. Odie Henderson-Chicago Sun-Times This observant documentary avoids pedagogy; it's not always artful, but it has a relaxed, light touch that never topples into pretension. David DeWitt-New York Times This is a complicated, accessible and heartfelt human drama, one that Obama, Romney and Americans of all political stripes should see ... Andrew O'Hehir-Salon.com The doc's technique of cutting between warm exchanges and the bellicose rhetoric of then-presidents Ahmadinejad and Bush wears thin with overuse, but the big-hearted Sheppard makes for an amiable tour guide. Sam Adams-Time Out New York "The Iran Job" is one of those documentaries that is sad and hopeful in equal measure and exceptional in its storytelling. Betsy Sharkey-Los Angeles Times The Iran Job locates an absorbing, cross-cultural universality with surprising ease. Brent Simon-Shockya.com As an entry into the Iranian world, Schauder and Nodjoumi made a wise choice with sports, but they made an even better choice with Sheppard. Kate Erbland-Film School Rejects This lively documentary breaks no new ground cinematically, yet its mix of discovery and befuddlement should bring more than sports fans to a basketball story. David D'Arcy-Screen International "The Iran Job" has interesting characters, an insight into Iran's culture and the story of one lonely American who, for a year, was his country's cultural ambassador to Iran. Robin Clifford-Reeling Reviews ...an amusing cultural fish out of water look at how a big, likable, outgoing Black American basketball player fits into life in Shiraz in southwestern Iran. Then it becomes something more around the halfway mark... Laura Clifford-Reeling Reviews Though there's something refreshing, and disturbingly familiar, about Kevin Sheppard's spontaneity, he's certainly not the most interesting thing about the film. Diego Costa-Slant Magazine

Review For The Barrens
There are definitely some worthwhile ideas and components here. They're just trapped in a film that can't afford them. Scott Weinberg-FEARnet Bousman doesn't have the vision to hoist the horror up high, settling on a mundane camping thriller only sporadically enlivened by mysterious violence. Brian Orndorf-Blu-ray.com [Bousman fans:] It's not quite up to Saw and Mother's Day levels in gut wrenching horror, but The Barrens is a good mix of supernatural and visceral.

As her top priority, Olive seeks to give Bobby the things she never had: she enrolls him in school, makes him do his homework and tries her hardest to be a good mother, and with the help of an old friend from Oklahoma, Walt (Rory Cochrane), Olive "provides" for Bobby in the only way she knows how. But despite of her efforts (or perhaps because of them) Bobby displays troubling behavior both at his school and in their conservative neighborhood. Things take a turn for the worse after Bobby's unfortunate "run-in" with the local and wealthy businessman Kent (Bill Pullman), and Olive's criminal past finally catches up with her, forcing her to make the toughest judgment of all.

Review For Bringing Up Bobby
[Its] downfall was ensured by a leading lady who will always be more credible chasing zombies than the American dream. Jeannette Catsoulis-New York Times Actress Famke Janssen wrote and directed this half-spiky, A-for-effort dramedy about a grifter mom struggling to raise her preteen son on the road. Joe Neumaier-New York Daily News Milla Jovovich delivers an over-the-top peformance in this melodramatic tale of an immigrant con artist and her juvenile delinquent son. Frank Scheck-Hollywood Reporter '"Bringing Up Bobby" is hardly an auspicious debut for Janssen as a director, but, at the same time, there's enough there to suggest that a next attempt would be worthy of investigation... James Rocchi-MSN Movies Ms. Jovovich displays such a keen awareness of her strengths that she brings out magical elements I never believed possible. Rex Reed-New York Observer The script, by first-time director Famke Janssen, condescends to the heartland, and minor roles collapse to stereotype. Marsha McCreadie-Village Voice Bringing Up Bobby is strongly recommended for both young teens and adults. It is a film that will help all of us survive and move on, in the beautiful yet uncomfortable world of our own making. Amy R. Handler-Film Threat Famke Janssen only rarely finds her way to the lowdown and lowlife world of the characters, and never and brings "Bobby" up to the level of pathos of "A Mother's Sacrifice" that she was aiming for in the first place. Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service ... a mess filled with condescending stereotypes, unlikeable characters, earnest melodrama and references to old movies that are better. Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com Stumbles through scenes without a consistent tone, hoping to shape something meaningful out of its display of misguided parenting. Janssen just doesn't have the vision to achieve it. Brian Orndorf-Blu-ray.com Bringing Up Bobby centers around a mugging performance by Jovovich, who can't ground the film's attempts to tie together sentiments from Paper Moon and Miss Saigon. Alison Willmore-AV Club Just an extended dramatization of the 1980s anti-drug PSA that memorably cautioned "I learned it by watching you!" Nick Schager-Slant Magazine

Review For Six Million and One
A unique, highly personal approach to unraveling the endless mysteries of the Shoah. Gary Goldstein-Los Angeles Times This self-indulgent documentary about the family dynamics among the children of a Holocaust survivor could have used a more ruthless editor. Frank Scheck-Hollywood Reporter The siblings react with humor and horror to what they discover. So will many viewers of this self-indulgent but engaging work. V.A. Musetto-New York Post Finding their way by flashlight, the siblings explore the labyrinthine tunnels of Gusen, dug by forced labor, that became a secret aircraft factory. Stephen Holden-New York Times Fisher's use of POV shots overlaid with narrated readings from his father's diary poignantly captures his desire to consciously inhabit scarred spaces ... Nick Schager-Village Voice Adds to documentary canon of the Holocaust as it grapples with repercussions and impact decades later on the next generation. . .though [family] arguments are hard to follow. Nora Lee Mandel-Film-Forward.com The director probes terror and the politics of place, and the rounded off numbers of human history that don't add up. As his siblings, ambivalent adult offspring of Holocaust survivors, express resentment about inevitable emotionally thwarted childhood. Prairie Miller-WBAI Radio A bittersweet tale of survival, as well as a priceless history lesson for the ages illustrating man's capacity for inhumanity to his fellow man. Kam Williams-myfilmblog Emotionally cathartic and engrossing with just the right amount of levity. Avi Offer-NYC Movie Guru In David Fisher's coruscating film, his discovery of a memoir by his late father, a Holocaust survivor, sparks a journey back to the camps with his siblings-who aren't sure how much of this dark past they want to uncover.

Review For Vulgaria
True to its title, this energetic Hong Kong comedy trades primarily in off-color gags, yet its tone, like that of John Waters's films, is so playful and inclusive that it's unlikely to offend anyone. Ben Sachs-Chicago Reader "Vulgaria" is certainly crude, but most of its amusing vulgarity is discreetly held off screen. Jeff Shannon-Seattle Times A broad, cartoonish -- and decidedly filthy -- satire of moviemaking is as sophomoric as they come. Michael O'Sullivan-Washington Post The film boasts the spontaneity of a French New Wave romp, while including raunchy gags worthy of The Hangover and Clerks II. Mark Jenkins-NPR The film's kinky energy eventually wanes, the pileup of profanities losing its initial zing. Jeannette Catsoulis-New York Times Either the golden height of human imaginative endeavor or as profane and crazy as a meth-addicted stripper. Chris Packham-Village Voice A transparent, bait-and-switch disappointment strictly for suckers. Kam Williams-myfilmblog A producer goes to bizarre lengths to complete a soft-core film in this coarse, exuberant Hong Kong comedy. Daniel Eagan-Film Journal International It fails to produce any humor - or even any skin. Brett Michel-Boston Phoenix Pang Ho-cheung can't help but humanize Vulgaria's characters, which is a kiss of death for what's meant to be a farce of escalating obscenity. Chuck Bowen-Slant Magazine Vulgaria is being marketed as a "dirty" movie, but that's underselling the film's real strengths. Rob Hunter-Film School Rejects While the film has no problem sticking its hand down its own pants, the end result is a total mess. Liam Maguren-Flicks.co.nz

Watch Harvest of Empire Movie HD Streaming Film based on the ground-breaking book by award-winning journalist and Democracy Now! co-host Juan González. Featuring real life stories and rare archival footage, the film examines the political events, social conditions, and U.S. government actions that led millions of Latino families to leave their homelands in an unprecedented wave of migration over the past six decades. At a time of heated and divisive debate over federal immigration policy, producers Eduardo López and Wendy Thompson-Marquez felt it was important to offer a rare and powerful glimpse into the enormous sacrifices and rarely-noted triumphs of the millions of Latino immigrants who are transforming the cultural and economic landscape of the nation. -- (C) Official Site Release Date Harvest of Empire Sep 28, 2012 Limited

Review For Harvest of Empire
The stories grow more eye-opening as filmmakers Peter Getzels and Eduardo Lopez paint a recurring picture. Stephanie Merry-Washington Post Getzels and Lopez take a refreshing approach in this age of punditry and choir-preaching. Peter Hartlaub-San Francisco Chronicle As an analysis of the causes of migration, it is one-dimensional and unconvincing. But as a social history of Latinos in America, it is provocative and fascinating. Kerry Lengel-Arizona Republic Cogent doc makes the persuasive argument for the role that U.S. military and corporate interests have played in the influx of immigration from Latin American countries. Frank Scheck-Hollywood Reporter The filmmakers retain a touching faith that most Americans won't tolerate injustice when they know about it. This film is meant to teach them. Rachel Saltz-New York Times This sobering and much-needed look at Latino migration is built on an undeniably optimistic premise: that once Americans have accurate facts, "they rarely allow injustices to stand."

Review For The Yakuza and the Mermaid
If wallowing in the creative hiccups of tortured scribblers is your moviegoing goal, there are much better options. Jeannette Catsoulis-New York Times "I have become trite, predictable and pretentious," says our writer-hero in The Yakuza and the Mermaid. Sadly, so does the film in which he finds himself.

Review For Stars In Shorts
They showcase not just the acting chops of Colin Firth, Lily Tomlin, Julia Stiles and others, but some fresh writing-directing talents, too. Michael Upchurch-Seattle Times "Stars in Shorts" lives up to its title by offering the likes of Judi Dench, Colin Firth, Jason Alexander, Keira Knightley, Lily Tomlin, Kenneth Branagh and Julia Stiles in films ranging from eight to 25 minutes. Walter V. Addiego-San Francisco Chronicle The performances in tandem with the writing take most of these seven movies to interesting places. Wesley Morris-Boston Globe Its most consistent pleasures derive more from its performances than from storytelling. Stephen Holden-New York Times None of the seven shorts here is worth a single, well-made feature. Elizabeth Weitzman-New York Daily News This assemblage of star-filled shorts makes for a generally rewarding grab bag. Frank Scheck-Hollywood Reporter It doesn't deliver a consistently enjoyable experience, because the quality of this compilation varies wildly. Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune Most of the shorts in this ambitious package are worthy of expanding for their own sakes. Kelly Vance-East Bay Express Overall, this is a decent little collection, and worth seeing for those seeking something different. Jeffrey M. Anderson-Combustible Celluloid A very mixed bag of short films, but Lily Tomlin, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Judi Dench and Penny Ryder make it worth catching. David Noh-Film Journal International ...a package of short films starring big-name stars, and it's hard to think how else you would get to see so many doing what they do best in a single evening... Sarah Boslaugh-PopMatters Four of the seven short films are worthwhile. That sounds like wait-for-video to me. Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)-St. Paul Pioneer Press The celebs are having a holiday good time, even when the stories aren't particularly distinguished. Gerald Peary-Boston Phoenix

Review For Primum Non Nocere -- First Do No Harm
The argument is compelling but would have been strengthened by even one interview with a defender of transfusions. Daniel M. Gold-New York Times
