Blank City (2009)
82%
EDIT
“No Wave filmmakers claimed their work was born out of an angry, nihilistic "no," but their legacy - and this vital documentary - suggests that they also opened up a whole other way of saying "yes."” –

Henry's Crime (2010)
43%
EDIT
“Fortunately, for a film that quotes so much Chekhov, Henry's Crime is likably unpretentious: a wry story about a quiet schmuck who finally sticks his neck out.” –

Real Steel (2011)

EDIT
“It's more of a throwback to Horatio Alger's Ragged Dick, a rags-to-middle-class-respectability tale about the humble joy of old-fashioned decency.” –

Your Sister's Sister (2011)

EDIT
“With this convoluted set-up in place, three actors with extraordinary chemistry play it all out to the end, and somehow the feeling deepens, even as the jokes spiral out of control.” –

Natural Selection (2011)

“I'm still reeling at how high a level of difficulty this film worked at, with its bold tonal shifts, meshing of truly dark material and spastic physical comedy.” –

Brighton Rock (2010)

EDIT
“Brighton's "not what she used to be," says one gangster, and that sure is a shame: The 1947 adaptation was so much more, and so much more strange.” –

Circumstance (2011)

EDIT
“The film doesn't feel weighed down with the burden of representation: It's too free-flowing for that, too plot-heavy, too stylish, too romantic, too hot.” –

“Fast-paced and fabulously fake, Friends With Benefits is the Red Bull of romantic comedies, unapologetically delivering a hyperactive, synthetic buzz.” –

Horrible Bosses (2011)

EDIT
“Still, Day's scene involving a mountain of cocaine is hyperspeed-hilarious, Farrell's unhinged, irrational fuming is marvelously cretinous, and Aniston's fully committed sex-addict sexpot act is wickedly absurd.” –

Mr. Popper's Penguins (2011)

“Jim Carrey's farts-and-flippers comedy, which, though exceedingly dumb, is at least very smart about what appeals to 4- to 10-year-old kids, fans of Happy Feet, March of the Penguins, and YouTube animal videos.” –

Super (2010)

“For all its indie posturing, Super feels as callow as any other big studio flick to court Comic Con: A B-movie splatter flick dressed up as a critique, dressed up as a black comedy, dressed up as a spoof, and capped with an ironic epilogue.” –
