Take My Eyes (2006) |
"Te doy mis ojos works with incredible force whilst remaining small and intimate at the same time. A small gem of a movie that deserves to be seen by many." |

Talk to Her (2002) |
"Very few directors could get away with making a film like this, but Almodovar not only gets away with it, he delivers a masterpiece." |
Boyd van Hoeij |

A Talking Picture (2003) |
"A Talking Picture might be an apt title, but it does not mean that it is automatically a picture worth contemplating." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Tomato |
Taxidermia (2007) |
"[P]ulls out all the stops in a vicious attack on the senses that leaves no ugly truth about mankind unsaid -- nor unseen. It is a tribute to Palfi's talents that the film is also compulsively watchable." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Tomato |
Terror's Advocate (2007) |
"Though the film comes with a warning that it expresses only the point of view of its director, in reality, what Schroeder seems to offer is a portrait of a glib man who simply defies any conclusive description." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Tomato |
La Tête de Maman (2007) |
"Seduces with a surprisingly dense narrative and a decidedly French take on the role of extramarital affairs and everyone's undeniable right to happiness." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Tomato |
The Counterfeiters (2008) |
"Perhaps a tad too cerebral, the film is nevertheless a very well-mounted and acted production that treats its themes with considerable depth." |

The Counterfeiters (2008) |
"A Couple of Quick Questions for the team of Die Faelscher (The Counterfeiters)" |

The Duchess of Langeais (2008) |
"It may sound like silly wordplay, but this film is nothing short of rivetting." |
Boyd van Hoeij |

The Duchess of Langeais (2008) |
"Actress Jeanne Balibar on Rivette's Ne touchez pas la hache (Don't Touch the Axe): "The two hours of the film are really about synchronising their simultaneous orgasms."" |

Them (2007) |
"The directors have thoroughly soaked up the best of its countless predecessors, elevating Ils to highly effective and atmospheric genre entertainment." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Splat |
Those Happy Days (2006) |
"The film's cast is spot-on but the film's script and editing take a few too many detours to make the trip really worthwhile." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Tomato |
Three Step Dancing (2003) |
" Ballo a tre passi is both effective and endearing" |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Tomato |
The Tiger and the Snow (2006) |
"Despite a weaker narrative force in its middle section and without the feeling that we are watching something new, La tigre e la neve still works." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Splat |
The Tiger Brigades (2006) |
"It feels so safe that when a character dies we do not really mind, since we are reassured by the knowledge that the actors portraying them are just doing their well-paid jobs." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Tomato |
Tim Burton's Corpse Bride (2005) |
"Easily the best animated work of the year, even if it is very light on morals and heavy on visual bedazzlement." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Tomato |
Time to Leave (2006) |
"A thoroughly cinematic and honest film that thrives on in-between moments and knows how to make them grand." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Tomato |
Tiramisu (2008) |
"Tiramisu walks a fine line between feel-good clichés and true character development, though Van der Oest finally makes it all believable because of her direction of the actors." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Splat |
A Touch of Spice (2006) |
"Suggests that the scenes [in the film] were randomly picked from the characters' lives, as if flipping through an album in which the choice of photos was dictated by the need to have had a camera at hand rather than the need to document important moments." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Tomato |
Tough Enough (2006) |
"Uses the familiar with enough flair and technical swagger to make it exciting all over again." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Tomato |
Transit (2006) |
"A WWII airbase epic that could teach Pearl Harbour director Michael Bay a thing or two about the use of plot and character." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
- |
Transit (2006) |
"Director Alexander Rogozhkin talks about Peregon (Transit)" |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Splat |
The Trap (2009) |
"Klopka (The Trap) starts off as a fascinating post-Milosevic film noir but ends up somewhere in the land of day-time soap circa 1985." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Tomato |
The Triplets of Belleville (2003) |
"Something unique: mixing styles, eras and geography into a cocktail that is both funny and melancholy.
" |

Tulipany (2004) |
"A supposedly fun feel-good film which only generates a good feeling when it is finally over." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Tomato |
Tulpan (2008) |
"The details of the exotic trappings on display may be relatively new but the rites-of-passage story is as old as civilisation itself in Tulpan, a timeless and endearing coming-of-age tale for the Story of the Weeping Camel crowd." |
Boyd van Hoeij |

Twin Peaks (1990) |

Twin Sisters (2002) |
"This war film without a single explosion is about what war does to people's thinking and reasoning and how it leads to prejudice that can even break the bonds of sisterhood." |
Boyd van Hoeij |
Tomato |
Two Brothers (2004) |
"The overall quality and timelessness of Two Brothers will guarantee it a long future." |
