Rachel Getting Married (2008)

"Rachel Getting Married has the sense to recognize that it only takes one lunatic to throw a family gathering out of kilter; this is not an exercise in competitive crazy like last year's irritating Margot at the Wedding."

Red Cliff (2009)

"The biggest film of the year opens this week, though you may be forgiven if you haven't heard about it, as it has committed the unpardonable sin of being in Chinese."

Redacted (2007)

"Grant De Palma this much: At least he did not wait until 14 years after hostilities concluded to pull his catch-all war metaphor from the dark cupboard of his psyche."

Riding Alone For Thousands of Miles (2006)

"What remains most vividly after Riding Alone For Thousands of Miles, however, is not its story but its world--the immersion in that world of a foreigner, not a polo-shirted Yank but a stiff-necked Japanese. And it is all overseen by a Chinese director."

The Road (2009)

"Is the film too grim? Or not grim enough? In a perverse way, I fear it's both."

The Rock (1996)

"When film more or less took over melodrama from the theater ninety years ago, it proudly provided real oceans instead of canvas waves rippled by stagehands; but the plots remained humbug ... The Rock is as ridiculous an example as one could want."

Russian Ark (2002)

"Sokurov's 'incompletions' are more interesting than many well-polished items."
