The Damned United (2009) |
"One of [its] primary pleasures...is that, in choosing a topic as narrow and parochial as the fate of an English soccer club, Morgan has relieved himself of any duty to persuade us that the events he describes are of world-historical import." |

The Dark Knight (2008) |
"Despite the tensions between its form and its function, The Dark Knight succeeds far more than it fails, and lingers provocatively in the mind." |

Denise Calls Up (1996) |
"After a while, besides enjoying the stories as such, we begin to enjoy the film's trickiness, almost all on the phone, as a sort of high-wire act." |

The Departed (2006) |
"Is Scorsese desperate? This screenplay has the scent of it, as if he is scraping for material to feed his basic filmic interests." |

Diamond Men (2001) |
"Cohen, who has been in the diamond business, has directed with a sure, non-wasteful hand and with touching empathy for both men." |

District 9 (2009) |

Djomeh (2001) |
"Djomeh (New Yorker) is not among the best of the Iranian imports -- its thematic compass is smaller--but it certainly shares some of the attributes of the best: patience and a belief that every human face is important." |

Doubt (2008) |
"Doubt still creaks a bit of the stage, displaying the kind of tidy narrative geometry that's easier to pull off in the acknowledged artifice of live theater than in the feigned intimacy of cinema." |

The Duchess (2008) |
"[Viewers] may wish to heed the marital advice Georgiana's mother offers early in the film: 'Equip yourself with patience, fortitude, and resignation.'" |

Duplicity (2009) |
"Like the carnal encounter with which it opens, it's a film that goes through the motions, and while those motions are frequently pleasurable, we, like Owen, are ultimately left disappointed." |
