Sean McAllister’s intimate documentary makes the strain on a marriage painfully clear amid Syria’s political upheaval. Its technical roughness can frustrate, but the family matters far beyond its usefulness in explaining the news.
Bryan Singer’s crowded superhero film stays entertaining because its actors make the arguments matter. The character history can be cumbersome, but the playful action gives the solemn business of saving the future a welcome lift.
Orlando von Einsiedel makes an absorbing, distressing documentary about people protecting a park. Its thriller-like urgency can press too hard, but the attention to rangers and gorillas gives the film a purpose beyond keeping us anxious.
Chris Morris spent three years finding out how young men talk themselves into murder, then made a farce about it that is funnier than anything the Pythons or Ealing produced and a great deal braver. The critics gave it a polite 74. We gave it 94, and we are not sure that was high enough. The second in an occasional series about films the critics got wrong.
Between Inception and Annihilation, the studios kept paying for original, adult science fiction at a mid-range budget, a generation of British and European directors took the genre seriously, and the spectacle got legible again. Twenty films from the decade, average Fi1m score 80, and the argument they add up to.
Twelve days, one house, black and white, the text as written and actors who had been reading the play together for years. The 2013 Much Ado About Nothing is neither filmed theatre nor a costume pageant nor a remix. It is the play as a house party, and it changes what a Shakespeare film can cost, look like and feel like. The first in a series about what happens when the stage meets the camera honestly.
A man who cannot dream steals children to take theirs. A circus strongman who barely speaks goes looking for one of them with a nine-year-old pickpocket for a guide. Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Marc Caro's 1995 fairy tale is thirty years old and still looks like nothing else, and it is the first in a series about films that tell a story the way only a film can.
It was the flop that nearly sank a studio, the film George Lucas would rather you forgot, the punchline of a thousand jokes about the eighties. It is also a strange, funny, entirely sincere piece of work that has outlived every film that beat it that summer. The first in an occasional series about films the critics got wrong.
