A Royal Affair (2012)
90%
3.5/4
EDIT
“A period saga that easily swats away any myopic claims of stately stuffiness by emerging as a passionate and hard-charging history lesson.” –

Throne of Blood (1957)
96%
4/4
EDIT
“One of the best Shakespearean adaptations ever made, and that Kurosawa topped himself by helming the brilliant King Lear-inspired Ran 28 years later only cements the fact that he will always be heralded as one of the greats.” –

3.5/4
EDIT
“With 3 Women, Altman pushed even harder against the envelope and in the process created a highly unusual and wholly original motion picture.” –

Ghosts Can't Do It (1990)
1/4
EDIT
“Donald Trump, America's favorite fascist, earned the Razzie Award for Best Supporting Actor, but front and center is Bo Derek, hopelessly delivering the terrible dialogue served up by her hack husband.” –

The Mannequin (2025)
68%
2.5/4
EDIT
“When the most famous movie mannequin was played by Kim Cattrall in a dopey ‘80s romcom, it’s clear that this sub-sub-sub-subgenre is clearly underrepresented. That makes The Mannequin a welcome addition to the game.” –

Where the Wild Things Are (2009)

2.5/4
EDIT
“The end result isn’t a bastardization of the literary classic, but neither is it a further canonization of the acclaimed source.” –

EDIT
“This atrocious movie hits all the keywords for conjuring up foul imagery: "misogyny"; "rape"; "vomit"; "scatology"; "nose-picking"; "Bret Easton Ellis."” –

3/4
EDIT
“Donna Stern proves to be a mirror reflection of the movie surrounding her: intelligent, spirited, honest, and more than a little awkward.” –

The Master (2012)

2.5/4
EDIT
“"You are passionate … but you do not persuade." That snatch of dialogue from Amadeus might as well be the slogan for Paul Thomas Anderson’s The Master.” –

Haywire (2011)
80%
2.5/4
EDIT
“Despite its dreamboat-heavy cast, this isn’t a big-screen episode of Spartacus or a sequel to Gladiator, although its leading player was then best known for TV’s American Gladiators.” –
