Spring Breakers (2013)

Thom says: “WOW, probably my favorite TIFF 2012 film all the more surprising seeing director Korine’s insane track record, plus his past relationship with film goddess Chloe Sevigny. I loved his first film GUMMO (1997) but was then quite disappointed

The Spectacular Now (2013)

Jason says: “It’s hard enough to try to review the first films to play a festival, writing a paragraph at a time between other screenings, but something like THE SPECTACULAR NOW makes it even more difficult. It’s does almost nothing

Space Milkshake (2013)

Jason says: “As of this writing, SPACE MILKSHAKE hasn’t actually been purchased by SyFy (or its Canadian equivalent Space) to run as a Saturday night original movie, but that’s what it is: A low-budget sci-fi movie just long enough that

The Source Family (2013)

By Chlotrudis Independent Film Society
Rating: 3 cats
Director: Jodi Whillle | Maria Demopoulos

Chris says: “A popular health food restaurant on the Sunset Strip… an experiment in spiritual communal living at the dawn of the 1970s… a cult overseen by Father Yod, a charismatic, excessively-bearded ex-Marine who eventually proclaimed he was God Himself…

Some Girl(s) (2013)

Jason says: “Based upon Daisy von Scherler Mayer’s film version, SOME GIRL (S) is a play with a rather tortured premise, and I suspect that actors who like a challenge are drawn to it for that. Sure, Neil LaBute gives

Thom says: “I was to learn before the screening that Assayas had won the best script at the Venice Film Festival. If truly that is the case I’d hate to know what the other choices were as this autobiographical film

Soft in the Head (2013)

Jason says: “I don’t feel bad about not particularly liking SOFT IN THE HEAD, but one of the reasons I don’t like it bugs me. I look down on its characters, which means I probably look down on their real-life

Go For Sisters (2013)

Jason says: “John Sayles is perhaps the most notable independent filmmaker who falls through the cracks despite being quite accessible. Why is that? After all, he’s got LONE STAR and EIGHT MEN OUT to his name! There are a number

S#x Acts (2013)

By Chlotrudis Independent Film Society
Rating: 3.5 cats
Director: Jonathan Gurfinkel
Starring: Eviatar Mor | Roy Nik | Sivan Levy

Bruce says: “This disturbing Israeli film S#X ACTS examines the effects of sexual bullying, a most disquieting albeit extremely important issue among teenagers. Gili (Sivan Levy) has switched schools midway through high school. Her mother is a single parent and

A Single Shot (2013)

Jason says: “There are two general ways a ‘bag of money’ movie can go: Navigating the intricate set-up that is revealed through a constant series of revelations and double-crosses that the anti-hero must navigate in order to keep the cash
