A quick look through my notes from Alejandro G. Iñárritu's film THE REVENANT reveals adjectives like 'epic,' 'brutal,' 'grimy,' 'magnificent,' 'beautiful,' etc. And none of it is hyperbole.

Our Movie Critic Counts Down his 15 Favorite Movies of 2015
by Matt Tamanini
- Jan 4, 2016
Now that 2015 is squarely in the rearview mirror, and everyone is back to work after the holidays, it is time to take a look at some of the best films of the past year. As was the case with my Top 15 TV Shows of 2015 list, this is not intended to be a comprehensive list. I am one man, and I have not yet seen every major movie released last year. However, as I continue to work through screeners and upcoming screenings (I live in Orlando, so not all of the awards-bait has been released here yet), I will count down the top 2015 releases that I saw during the calendar year. Notable omissions are BRIDGE OF SPIES, THE REVENANT, THE DANISH GIRL, and CONCUSSION, all of which I hope to see by the end of the week.

BWW Review: Beautifully Crafted BROOKLYN Shines
by Natalie de la Garza
- Nov 20, 2015
Directed by John Crowley, BROOKLYN is a beautifully crafted, cohesive film. Though subtle, it is richly layered. The incredibly contained story, scripted by Nick Hornby, is circular, reminding us in multiple places and ways that Eilis' story (both as an immigrant story and a coming of age story) is not unique.
