South
by Southwest 2006 - Film Reviews
The
Last Romantic - There's something very innocent,
honest and hopeful that makes it stand out in the crowd.
Bondage
- We've seen this film a million times.
The
Oh in Ohio - What the film is doing here is making
the film that John Waters should have made instead of
"A Dirty Shame."
LOL - A film
that just doesn't live up to the promise he showed in
his earlier work.
Champions
- The film begins to go beyond your typical schlub and
asshole type "buddy comedy" and begins to become something
more unique.
Who
the $#%& is Jackson Pollack? - Most stories begin
"One upon a time..." But this story begins, "You ain't
gonna believe this shit."
Population/436
- Is kind of odd yet typical, a strange combination.
A
Scanner Darkly - You don't have to go any further
than the first scene to know that Linklater is way off
the map here.
Small
Town Gay Bar - This documentary is not what I thought
it would be and not what I wanted it to be.
The
King - That's right - This film is so bad it actually
made me fear for my life!
2am
- Derivative, sloppy, painfully bad excursion in to
why things like good acting, good direction, good dialogue
and interesting stories are important to making a film
work.
Americanese
- It's hard to imagine a romantic drama that is more
unromantic.
Dance
Party, USA - Mesmerizes the viewer and holds their
attention rapt.
Gretchen
- A lot of fun and often hilarious, it is also overly
long and a bit too much to swallow.
The
Life of Reilly - It doesn't matter what is missing
here really, because what is here is simply jaw-dropping.
Brothers
of the Head - Like a bad punk rock song.
Jumping
off Bridges - "Ordinary People" cubed.
Puppy
- Delusional: A Love Story.
Don't
Come Knocking - Offers us Wenders' best film in
many years.
Neil
Young: Heart of Gold -
This may very well be the greatest visual document of
Young's work ever.
Fuck
- The exploration of the world's seemingly most offensive
expletive.
A
Prairie Home Companion - Fans of Altman will get
just what they are hankering for.
This
Film is Not Yet Rated - Hatchet job of a film.
