Splat

Familia (2005)

"A mundane melodrama that drags us along to window shop for some cheap, knock-off dysfunction. . . the women are about as interesting as stale donuts and the lying, cheating men are like the deep fryer's leftover lard drippings."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Family Law (2006)

"A gentle little drama about the shades of fathers passing through their sons . . . brushed with light touches of whimsy and bemusement . . . a delicate questioning of the slight madness of city life, the rush so many of us are a little too swept up in."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Fantastic Planet (1973)

"Anthropology meets surrealist art in a film about the coldly intellectual, logical Traags and the wild, passionate, heartfelt Oms. Manages to be both of our world and somehow not, shucking off any influences and finding a weird wonder all its own."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Far From Heaven (2002)

"The remarkable thing about Far From Heaven is what an emotional experience it is—this is no arid, intellectual exercise but a genuinely heartbreaking story of three decent people prevented by repressive social conventions from acting on the desires"

Paul Matwychuk

Tomato
4/5

Fast, Cheap, & Out of Control (1997)

Tomato
5/5

Fawlty Towers - The Complete Set (1974)

"gut-bustingly hilarious"

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Fighting (2009)

"This is Rocky for the UFC generation . . . but what Dito Montiel's film lacks in subtlety it makes up for with heartfeltness, though not quite artfulness."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Final Destination 2 (2003)

"It skillfully accomplishes the horror genre's most basic goal: scaring the hell out of you."

Josef Braun

Splat

Find Love (2006)

"The camerawork can be stodgy and the performances, built on improvisation, seem rickety. Many scenes, unnaturally strained and awkward, are piled on like layers of forced complication."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Five Days (2007)

"Pulses with an underlying distrust of an overworked, PR-driven police force that's a necessary social burden. . . . also offers a sense of family fractured, people isolated and lost in their pain, that's rarely seen on film or television these days."

Brian Gibson

Tomato
4/5

Flirting with Disaster (1996)

No article available.

Brian Gibson

Tomato

A Fond Kiss (2004)

"A wonderful ensemble drama that gently draws you into its political concerns with richly personal dramas, showing the bruising ups and downs of love and family heartache."

Brian Gibson

Splat

The Forbidden Kingdom (2008)

"The story, which should be forbidden, keeps coming back for more. Whenever the plot pops up, from predictable love scenes to the villainess who hates men for no reason to the crypto-Confucian lines, you keep wishing for the next fist to fly."

Brian Gibson

Splat

Formula 51 (2002)

"One of those movies that assumes we’re all quite comfortable rooting for hitmen, thieves and dope peddlers (corrupt cops, on the other hand, are the scum of the earth)."

Josef Braun

Splat

Forty Shades of Blue (2005)

"Korzun . . . is a non-presence, a brittle facade . . . a sketchy screenplay [adds up to] Zero Depths of Feeling . . . a flat, tasteless, faux-Euromance."

Brian Gibson

Splat

The Four Feathers (2002)

"Like a carefully shaped gem with an unmistakable flaw in its centre, The Four Feathers can’t help but seem compromised in every way no matter what angle you view it from."

Josef Braun

Splat

Frida (2002)

"A blasé etching of a fraught relationship, largely ignoring the social and political influences on Frida’s art."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Frozen River (2008)

"Rolls along on strong acting turns, then twists away from a predictable tragic route, snowballing into a mighty little film. Darkly prescient in its portrait of people selling themselves out, selling themselves short and still slipping deeper into debt."

Brian Gibson
