In Time
Film review by: Witney Seibold
A high-concept sci-fi film from Andrew Niccol (the man behind “Gattaca” and “Simone”), “In Time” envisions a near future where people have been genetically bred to stop aging at 25. To make up for the seeming immortality, society has replaced currency with minutes on a glowing deathclock imprinted in your forearm. (more…)
In a Glass Cage
Film review by: Witney Seibold 
My twisted quest to find the worlds sickest and most twisted films has now led me to Agusí Villronga‘s 1987 art-house shocker “In a Glass Cage,” a film about pedophiles, Nazis, revenge torture, extreme fetish, and one of the weirdest sex scenes this side of David Cronenberg. (more…)
Incendies
Film review by: Witney Seibold
Denis Villaneuve’s “Incendies” is a combination melodramatic potboiler, timely political thriller, and legitimate detective story, and manages to be all of those things well; it is, in turns, tense, wrought, politically significant, and barely scraping the ceiling of being over-the-top lurid (which can be, depending on your state of mind, a strength).

Insidious
Film review by: Witney Seibold
“Insidious” is half a very good movie, and half a really stupid one. I guess, then, that it averages out to “o.k.” in the broad scheme. (more…)

Why do most teenagers in movies looks like they’re in their late 20s or early 30s? (more…)

Film review by: Witney Seibold
Jacques Tati‘s films, while funny and calm, and all about the gentle art of watching the quiet, incidental workaday foibles of ordinary human beings, are often infused with a streak of palpable melancholy. (more…)
Inside Job
Film review by: Witney Seibold
Like his brilliant “No End in Sight,” Charles Ferguson‘s “Inside Job” (narrated by Matt Damon) takes a massively complicated and hotly contested piece of recent history – in this case the 2008 financial collapse – and makes it seem, for brief moments, kind of understandable. Of course, part of his point is that modern economics has become so forcefully and deliberately complex and oblique, that no one is supposed to be able to follow it, making sure that the CEOs and investment bilkers in charge of the whole mess can continue to give themselves huge millions-of-dollars bonuses.

Inception
Film review by: Witney Seibold
Oh what a delight. What a relief. What a well-written, well-acted, well-thought-out, well-made film. (more…)
Iron Man 2
Film review by: Witney Seibold
Jon Favreau‘s “Iron Man 2,” while being delightful, affable, and incredibly well-acted, still suffers from typical sequel burnout; too much content included in order to outdo the spectacle of the previous film. (more…)
