Tomato

The Page Turner (2007)

"Dercourt washes the film in a chillingly remorseless suspense. . . . the story, as taut as a razor-sharp piano string, offers a few sly, subtle sexual knots before the final bloody note is struck."

Brian Gibson

Splat

The Painted Veil (2006)

"Why, ultimately, leave 1920s England to see a tragic romance between two Brits? Part this veil, and the atmosphere dissolves into a smokescreen, the backdrop revealed as a chasm between cultures."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Paprika (2007)

"Its visual collision of mindscapes, films within films and dreams within dreams cascade into a dizzying rush that easily washes away the humdrum dialogue and somewhat sketchy plot."

Brian Gibson

Tomato
3/5

Paradise Lost 2: Revelations (2000)

5/5

Paradise Lost: The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills (1996)

"powerful, galling documentary"

5/5

Paris, Texas (1984)

Paul Blart: Mall Cop (2009)

"Like a mall, has long stretches where you see nothing of interest and a generally stale air to it. Unlike a mall, you can't just browse and then move on to a better section."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Pavee Lackeen (2005)

"More documentary than drama even as lyric images whisper past . . . slowly burns itself into the memory."

Brian Gibson

-

A Perfect Getaway (2009)

"SideVue: Horror Away From Home. Considers "travel-terror" films in light of A Perfect Getaway."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Persepolis (2007)

"A lot of beautiful animated sequences that could only come to life in movement . . . We've had this incredible wave of films giving us Iran from an insider's point of view--maybe now it's time for the exile's."

Brian Gibson

-

Persepolis (2007)

"SideVue: Police, Perception, Persepolis. Considers the rebelliousness and realism of Iranian cinema in light of the post-Ahmadinejad election uprising and bloodshed in Tehran."

Brian Gibson

Splat
2/5

Pet Sematary (1989)

No article available.

Paul Matwychuk

Tomato

The Pianist (2002)

"There's a rock-solid authenticity to every scene of The Pianist that seems utterly unquestionable to me."

Paul Matwychuk

Tomato
4/5

A Place Called Chiapas (1998)

Polytechnique (2009)

"SideVue: Gunning For The Truth. Considers the recent phenomenon of shooting-sprees in schools and elsewhere, in light of Denis Villeneuve's film."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

The Pool (2008)

"Shimmers silently. A quietly remarkable film, for its seeming simplicity, its careful rhythms, and its interest in a place and its spirit."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Possession (2002)

"Neil LaBute’s most mature movie yet, the work of a moralist coming to terms with a world of blurred morals."

Josef Braun

Tomato
4/5

Il Postino (1995)

No article available.

Paul Matwychuk

Splat

Power and Terror: Noam Chomsky in Our Times (2002)

"This sometimes fawning documentary is selling a simple image of Chomsky to his faithful, not expanding on or further discussing the man’s ideas."

Brian Gibson

Tomato
3/5

Predator (1987)

No article available.

Brian Gibson

Tomato

The Prisoner Or: How I Planned To Kill Tony Blair (2007)

"Yunis's surreal moments of imprisoned hell are emphasized with comic book illustrations and people's words as captions. It's a cartoonish nightmare with ordinary Iraqis, who've only known America through pop-culture TV, becoming trapped in easy stereotype"

Brian Gibson

-

A Problem With Fear (2003)

"For A Problem With Fear, Burns really wanted to let the camera tell the tale. . . . 'I wanted to make this film less expository.'"

Brian Gibson

Tomato
4/5

The Producers (1968)

No article available.

Paul Matwychuk

Tomato
4/5

Project Grizzly (1996)

No article available.

Brian Gibson

Tomato

PU-239

"An environmentally minded, politically charged thriller. The way that life ends with a whimper, not a bang, in a Russia even more fissured by self-interest, is heartbreaking."

Brian Gibson

Tomato

Pumpkin (2002)

"Pumpkin is a movie that resists categorization, that manages wit, intelligence, audacity and pointed social commentary while still entertaining us with a terrifically bizarre combination of soapy, ultra-stylized satire and blackly comic fairytale."

Josef Braun

Tomato

Punch-Drunk Love (2002)

"Unlike any romantic comedy this year, with a vision so wondrously off-kilter that you’ll be swept off your feet by it, even if you don’t fall in love at first sight."

Brian Gibson

Tomato
5/5

Purple Noon (1960)

No article available.
