Rating: Not Rated Stars: Eliot Cowan, Molly Gaisford, Elodie Young, Louis Trefgarne, Jonathan Pryce, James Callis, Harry Lloyd, Robert Bathurst Writer: Justin Trefgarne Director: Justin Tregarne Distributor: IFC Midnight Release Date: Theatrical & VOD, October 2, 2015 NARCOPOLIS is one of those movies that, in narrative terms, ties its shoelaces together at the start and never fully finds its footing thereafter. This is a pity, because writer/director Justin Trefgarne has assembled a strong cast and has the beginnings of a good idea. At the start, a title tells us we’re in 2044 London. Drug company kingpin Todd Ambro (James Callis) […]Read On »

MPAA Rating: R Stars: Andrew Garfield, Michael Shannon, Laura Dern, Noah Lomax Writers: Ramin Bahrani and Amir Naderi and Bahareh Azimi Director: Ramin Bahrani Distributor: Broad Green Pictures Release Date: September 25, 2015 By now, it is widely accepted that one of the reasons for the 2008 U.S. economic recession was predatory lending practices by banks. One of the ugliest results of this was people getting turned out of their homes, often with no warning and sometimes when the house in question was the only one the residents had ever known. 99 HOMES takes this as a premise and turns […]Read On »

SOME KIND OF HATE fuses the two in fairly effective fashion, even if it’s not tremendously scary. High-school student Lincoln (Ronen […]Read On »

Release Date: September 18, 2015 James “Whitey” Bulger was an infamous figure for decades and the story of his rise and fall seems even more likely fodder than most for a cinematic biopic.

Waller Directors: Jonathan Milott & Cary Murnion Distributor: Lionsgate Premiere Release Date: theatrical & VOD, September 18, 2015 How good is COOTIES? The first twenty-five minutes or so (minus an opening sequence that will validate every vegetarian in the audience and make everyone else question fast-food chicken forever) could easily be mistaken for a quality comedy pilot about elementary school teachers on HBO or Showtime.
