I’m a Cyborg, But That’s OK (2006)

Comedy Rated NR

“…strikes a balance between blithely endorsing the delusions of its mentally ill characters and comically demonizing them.’

Computer Chess (2013)

Comedy Rated NR

“…a movie of wry simplicity that has been subjected to all sorts of avant-garde tinkering.”

The World’s End (2013)

Comedy Rated R

“Pegg and Wright’s movies laugh, bleed and explode in the face of maturity, even as they begrudgingly recognize the virtue of it.”

Prince Avalanche (2013)

Comedy Rated R

“The central tension in Prince Avalanche is one between solitude and community.”

Blue Jasmine (2013)

Comedy Rated PG-13

“If only this performance was in a different movie, one more in sync with the panic that glints in Blanchett’s eyes.”

I’m So Excited! (2013)

Comedy Rated R

“…gleeful self-distraction in the face of impending doom.”

The Heat (2013)

Comedy Rated R

“Is it possible that Melissa McCarthy needs to be more abrasive?”

Pain & Gain (2013)

Comedy Rated R

“I can’t help but wonder if Pain & Gain is the reason Michael Bay was put on this earth.”

A Night at the Opera (1935)

Comedy Rated NR

“A Night at the Opera is Groucho’s flirtation with respectability and devilish realization that it’s much more rewarding to play the clown.”

Duck Soup (1933)

Comedy Rated NR

“…a glaring example of the element of their comedy that’s always bothered me: the reliance on insults and cruelty.”
