Tomato
4/5

Cabin Boy (1993)

Caché (2005)

"SideVue: Hanekering For A New Horror. Considers Michael Haneke's films and their relationship to Austria as a "look-away society," along with their connection to the sub-genre of "New French Extremity" films."

Tomato

Caramel (2008)

"Although the film isn't chatty and people are just a little too soap opera-ish photogenic, the film is often understated enough to charm. Small, tender scenes and little details make Caramel a nice, light passing fancy."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Catch Me If You Can (2002)

"The film glides through its well-structured script, letting the audience coast along with it and allowing the performers to stay loose and limber. And that's what's wonderful about Catch Me If You Can—it's a chase picture that's all about the perfo"

Josef Braun

The Celebration (1998)

"SideVue: Fest or Famine? Considers the scope and purpose of film festivals in light of TIFF 2009 and my own memories of seeing Vinterberg's film at TIFF in 1998."

Brian Gibson

Tomato
5/5

The Celebration (1998)

No article available.

Brian Gibson

Splat

The Chances of the World Changing

"Director Eric Daniel Metzgar makes the rookie mistake of too much voiceover. And there's a disappointing vagueness around Ogust, his story, his attraction to turtles and around the creatures themselves or the efforts to protect and breed them."

Brian Gibson

Splat

Chaos and Desire (2003)

"A little too slick and self-aware, [the movie] never sinks under the weight of its themes, but this artsy craft of a film does creak and list en route to a safe, soppy ending."

Brian Gibson

-

Che (2008)

"SideVue: Che What? Considers what the poor audience showing for Che suggests about Che's politics in our time."

Brian Gibson

Splat

Cheech (2006)

"With its garish and seamy scenes, its flabby shots and not-snappy-enough dialogue, Cheech is often like a nasty old pair of leopard-print underwear, its elastic frayed and loose."

Brian Gibson

Splat

Chelsea Walls (2002)

"This thing is virtually unwatchable."

Paul Matwychuk

Splat

Cherish (2002)

"The mystery here is not the identity of the shadowy man who got Zoe into this mess, but which movie Taylor intended to emerge from Cherish's cinematic muddle."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Chicago (2002)

"Where Moulin Rouge was all cinema trickery and no guts, Rob Marshall has found a perfect balance of the two. Chicago is absolutely visceral."

Josef Braun

Tomato
5/5

Children of Heaven (1997)

"Iranian social realism with runaway charm"

Brian Gibson

Tomato
4/5

Chinatown (1974)

"classic noir"

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Christmas in August (1998)

"Unfortunately, the film's cloying score trickles through scenes like sap . . . works best when circling quietly around its characters and attuned to the dying strains of faded romance."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Cinema, Aspirins and Vultures

"A road movie about the end of the road, about paths diverging, when travellers' time together can only be brief."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

City by the Sea (2002)

"For me, acting rarely makes or breaks a movie, but there’s so much heart invested in the characters at the centre of this film that I found myself captivated, for just a while, by the troubles of those people up on the screen."

Josef Braun

Tomato

City of Men - The Complete Series (2006)

"[Some] startlingly innovative and experimental television. It's obvious from City of Men that there are far more stories to be found in the poor places where most people live."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

CJ7 (2008)

"Always intriguing but not always fully involving, CJ7 still features, as with its resurrecting dog, Chow's enlivening touch. Even when his film isn't completely absorbing, it seems he never met a dying genre cliché he can't reanimate."

Brian Gibson

-

The Class (2008)

"SideVue: The Factories of Life. Considers cinematic social-realism and the past ten years of social-realist filmmaking in light of Cantet's film."

Brian Gibson

Tomato
4/5

Clerks (1994)

No article available.

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Close to Home (2007)

"A haunting autopsy of how the personal can obliterate the political, as the oppressors rationalize, repress and then casually repeat the day-to-day injustices they're paid to commit for a society eager to forget its sins."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Closer (2004)

"To quote the haunting Damien Rice song that bookends the film, you can’t take your eyes off of it."

Paul Matwychuk

Tomato

Cold Mountain (2003)

"Minghella crafts enough resonant, lyrical images to make the engrossing Cold Mountain a finely polished, emotionally harrowing epic."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Confessions of a Dangerous Mind (2002)

"The evil twin of A Beautiful Mind: take out the false life-affirming tone and moral clarity from Howard's movie, add some nasty humour and you get box-office poison."

Josef Braun

Tomato
4/5

Cool Hand Luke (1967)

No article available.

Brian Gibson

-

Coraline (2009)

"SideVue: Gaiman, Set, Match. Considers the adaptation of graphic novels and limited comic-book series in light of the film adaptation of Gaiman's Coraline."

Brian Gibson

Splat

Couples Retreat (2009)

"The vapid couples become sniping or sarcastic chunks of white blandness even sharks would spit back up. A kind of bad video-game romance-comedy: 2D characters, flat dialogue, an exotic backdrop, and lame new levels of relationship challenges."

Brian Gibson

Splat

Crazy Love (2007)

"The film never shows anyone being deeper, as if the surface patter of their '50s world is really all they are. . . . it's best to just leave this odd couple to the distant past of Geraldo and other talk show appearances."

Brian Gibson

Splat

Crime Novel (2005)

"It's hard to get much juice when it's all quick slice-and-dice in the first half-hour. . . . the moral slipperiness between criminal and politician, thug and cop, just doesn't ooze out here beyond all the blood."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

CSA: The Confederate States of America (2006)

"Its attack on American racist capitalism is provocative, disturbing and powerful satire . . . shows us through fiction what Katrina has already revealed in fact."

Brian Gibson

Tomato
4/5

Cure (2001)

No article available.

Brian Gibson

Splat

Curse of the Golden Flower (2006)

"This is epic, super-duper-sized . . . a hollow but lovely looking spectacle."

Brian Gibson
