| Monsters vs. Aliens (2009) | "
In short, if you’re going to see Monsters vs. Aliens, the only way to do it is in 3D. Looking back, I think I’d be miserable just watching a 2D screening of this movie." — Film Threat Posted Mar 31, 2009 |

This is a really small film, shot in 19 days, and it's a little rough around the edges, but it's got a huge comic heart that's undeniable." — Film Threat Posted Oct 18, 2008 |

I’m not a basketball fan in the slightest, but I will admit to being wrapped up in the tension of this incredibly rousing finale. After watching this inspiring documentary, I’m sure you’ll feel the same way." — Film Threat Posted Apr 16, 2008 |

Ten 'til Noon moves along a lot smoother than one would think. This could've easily been a giant mess, but aiding filmmaker Scott Storm in keeping his ship together is a talented ensemble cast who compliment the sharp, witty script." — Film Threat Posted Mar 29, 2007 |

| Factotum (2006) | "
Bukowski had a bunch of none too kind things to say about Barfly upon its release in the 80s, but, with Factotum, he'd do plenty of bitching and moaning as well, but deep down, Hank would approve." — Film Threat Posted Aug 19, 2006 |

| In Between Days (2006) | "
The camera lingers on the characters' minimal, but expressive actions, allowing the viewer to soak in their emotions rather than having them related to us through dialogue. In Between Days is more of an experience than your average movie." — Film Threat Posted Feb 4, 2006 |

| Art School Confidential (2006) | "
It’s a look at art school life. It’s a love story. It’s a coming of age tale. It’s a serial killer murder mystery. None of these themes fit together and it makes for a really disjointed, confusing watch." — Film Threat Posted Jan 30, 2006 |
