"Although overshadowed by director Roman Polanski's more famous horror efforts... The Tenant is in many ways superior - a haunting, mesmerizing tale of a man's loss of identity and descent into madness."

"Although there is an admirable attempt to stay true to the higher aspirations of the high-class source material, the new effort is undermined by the need to fashion itself as a crowd-pleasing blockbuster, loaded with exciting special effects."

Timecrimes (2008)
"As a director, Vigalondo sweeps you up into his tale and keeps you running at what seems like full speed toward the finish line."
Tokyo! (2009)
"Unfortunately, the weirdness is not always entertaining - in some cases it is merely boring - but there is enough going on to make this interesting for fans of art house cinema."
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)
"Michael Bay is an abstract artist... all of that hardware flying around the screen...are simply blobs of light and shadow...like paint spattered on a canvas by Jackson Pollack."
Twilight (2008)
"Within ten years or so, this film (and its inevitable sequels) will look as outdated and ridiculous as the old Beach Party movies, but that shouldn't stop us from sitting back and enjoying the camp with a quiet chuckle."
