Jennifer Connelly
House of Sand and Fog (2003)
Hulk (2003)
Dark Water (2005)
Though
Dark Water
doesn't run deep....Salles keeps his head above [it]...with superior acting, mise en scene, story, script, and photography.
Little Children (2006)
That the narration and Field's God's-eye camera draw attention to the film's form doesn't detract from its function: to give us that 'second' in the mirror...
Blood Diamond (2006)
I'll take
Blood Diamond
over
Lethal Weapon 5
any day. Let's call it a flawed gem.
Labyrinth (1986)
The chaotic narrative proceeds in fits and starts, and the sights and sounds are often dated, but somehow the film's wit and wonder linger in the mind.
Dark City (Director's Cut) (1998)
Proyas assembles his inspirations into a unique amalgam with the power of myth to tap the fears and desires of our collective unconscious.
He's Just Not That Into You (2009)
Couples who want to stay happy might want to think twice before seeking out a movie about how the majority of relationships end up making people paranoid and miserable.
The Day the Earth Stood Still (2008)
More of a mess than the pleasant surprise one might have hoped.
Requiem for a Dream (2000)
The Rocketeer (1991)
A charmer in its gee-whiz, irony-light resuscitation of the movie serials of the '30s.
Winter's Tale (2014)
Runs on Judeo-Christian good-versus-evil mythology and the firm belief that love conquers all, especially if you have a magic flying horse. I know that sounds pretty awesome, but...
Aloft (2015)
At times one feels there's an interesting film here struggling to break free (free as a bird!)...but what's made it to screen sends eyes aloft in its symbolism and its character dynamics.
Alita: Battle Angel (2019)
Silly but...big dumb fun.
