		<description><![CDATA[
2011 was a volley of disappointment, for the most part, as the  furry-browed Elliott Gould was nowhere to be found. Michael Sheen failed  to have a starring role as an English Prime Minister. And Melanie  Laurent was only in one movie. I couldn&#8217;t even, reasonably, compile a  top ten list of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A Freudian Slip Up

Starring: Michael Fassbender, Viggo Mortensen
Review written by Robert Patrick
Director David Cronenberg is known for his spatterfests, where heads explode like Gallagher watermelons, guts spew from television sets, and severed fingers are nonchalantly plucked like flower petals in a child&#8217;s hand. In recent years the maestro of macabre has toned down the science [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Of Spies and Sedatives

Starring: Gary Oldman, Colin Firth
Review written by Robert Patrick
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy must have sounded like a great idea. An espionage thriller based on the acclaimed, serpentine book of the same name. Shifty-eyed spies in dapper suits, mulling around cafes and hiding behind baguettes, all while carrying around pistols under their pant [...]]]></description>

Starring: Rooney Mara, the android Daniel Craig
Review written by Robert Patrick
Stieg Larsson&#8217;s Millennium Series, a trilogy of books about the androgynous computer hacker and razor-tongued counterculture herionne Lisbeth Salander, began with the Swedish author&#8217;s first installment of the franchise, dubbed &#8220;The Men Who Hate Women.&#8221; That book, which sounds like [...]]]></description>

Starring: Charlize Theron, Patton Oswalt
Review written by Robert Patrick
Counterculture queen Diablo Cody cuts her teeth on dialogue that is rife with alliteration, hipster-like musings, and fanged insults. Many would think her writing is a modern, barbed version of Howard Hawks&#8217; spitfire snark. The reality is that Cody&#8217;s banter is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Patrick Bateman&#8217;s Long Lost Cousin Emerges

Starring: Michael Fassbender, Carey Mulligan
Review written by Robert Patrick
If you look under the hood of most movies this year, Michael Fassbender will be there.  The thespian has completed period pieces, comic-book films, biopics about bearded psychoanalysts, and now a film about a vacuous thirty-something whose pilgrimage across the bodies of [...]]]></description>

Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio, Naomi Watts
Review written by Robert Patrick
Warner Brothers should have renamed J. Edgar &#8220;Watch Clint Eastwood Fall Asleep at the Wheel&#8221;. This historical biopic about the advent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation is terse, rife with plasticity, and about as warm as an insulated container [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Marionettes Made of Tissue

Starring: Antonio Banderas, Elena Anaya
Review written by Robert Patrick
Moral compasses are caked with mud, emotions are pulled like teeth without anesthetic, and colors are spattered like paint cans perforated by bullet holes. The world of sixty-two year-old Pedro Almodóvar is one of ghosts, obsessions, frothy malaise. Never innocuous, the films of the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Revolution In Fragments

Starring: Angela Davis, Stokely Carmichael
Review written by Robert Patrick
Director Göran Olsson&#8217;s documentary, The Black Power Mixtape 1967-1975, has a clunky, cumbersome title; the name is like a topiary that needs reshaping. Something with more steely brevity, clenched fist punctuality would be more fitting of this snapshot of the Black Power movement in [...]]]></description>

Starring: Michael Shannon, Jessica Chastain
Review written by Robert Patrick
Jeff Nichols, the director of &#8220;Take Shelter&#8221;, is a locksmith at turning the key on rustic, red dirt worlds of volatile friendships and swinging-gate relationships. The filmmaker is only two films into his career &#8211; &#8220;Shotgun Stories&#8221;, his first fiery opus, was [...]]]></description>
