    Michael Jackson's This Is It (2009)

    " ... a concert-that-never-was film that trumps that genre because of its ultimate humanity, imperfection and lack of overproduction"

    The Witnesses (2008)

    " André Téchiné is a master at taking life experiences and stripping them of sentimentality, leaving us with only the bare-bones honesty of relationships and desire."

    Babel (2006)

    " There is some hope, in Iñárritu's world, each of the characters may have a family and love, but this is shown to be, at best, a diversion against the real world, which is a much more intolerable, incomprehensive place."

    Harsh Times (2006)

    " A movie that seems gritty and pointless for its first third, begins to grow in meaning as the pointlessness snowballs into absurdity and then tragedy."

    My Mother Likes Women (2004)

    " The directors' attempt to go slightly high-brow comes off as fake and the heightened state of madcap craziness seems simply forced."
