The Children of Huang Shi (2008) 29% EDIT “A film whose gorgeous cinematography and endearing subject matter almost mask its mediocrity.” – New York Press May 21, 2008 Full Review The Edge of Heaven (2007) 90% EDIT “[Director] Akin captures his characters' movements, both physical and emotional, with poetic fluidity.” – New York Press May 21, 2008 Full Review Then She Found Me (2007) 50% EDIT “April and Frank are mired in angst, for no discernable reason, other than having the misfortune of being stuck in a downer of a movie.” – New York Press Apr 23, 2008 Full Review Up the Yangtze (2007) 96% EDIT “With all these lyrical elements in play, [director Yung] Chang's extraneous voiceover narration is baffling, and all but unbearable.” – New York Press Apr 16, 2008 Full Review Body of War (2007) 80% EDIT “With all this fascinating real-life material to work with, it's frustrating that the directors choose to devote half of the movie to well-worn archival footage of members of congress debating the decision to invade Iraq in 2002.” – New York Press Apr 9, 2008 Full Review Drillbit Taylor (2008) 26% EDIT “Its comedy falls flat, and the film has a violent core where its heart should be.” – New York Press Mar 26, 2008 Full Review Priceless (2006) 82% EDIT “[Actor Gad] Elmaleh is the soul of Priceless, and watching his comedic chops is the highlight of this snappy, joyous ride.” – New York Press Mar 26, 2008 Full Review Under the Same Moon (2007) 71% EDIT “The specific story, while formulaic, is carried soulfully by its three main actors, who make Under the Same Moon a success despite its flaws.” – New York Press Mar 19, 2008 Full Review Sputnik Mania (2007) 95% EDIT “Sputnik Mania is not riveting; but it is, first and last, informative.” – New York Press Mar 12, 2008 Full Review Girls Rock! (2007) 70% EDIT “The pacing and tone of Girls Rock! match its subject perfectly.” – New York Press Mar 5, 2008 Full Review The Unforeseen (2007) 90% EDIT “We can appreciate the film's good intentions, but we can't shake the feeling that we've been talked down to, rather than informed.” – New York Press Feb 27, 2008 Full Review The Counterfeiters (2007) 93% EDIT “[Director] Ruzowitzky's straightforward approach to this unusual story and cinematographer Benedict Neunfels's documentary-style immediacy transcend the now well-worn Holocaust genre, bringing another side of the tragedy into unflinching focus.” – New York Press Feb 20, 2008 Full Review A Walk to Beautiful (2007) 89% EDIT “Lushly photographed and carried along by a spirited score featuring both Ethiopian and Western music, but the film's most striking element proves to be the women at its center.” – New York Press Feb 6, 2008 Full Review
