	Title Publication	Review Date	Rating	Quote
1.	3 Geezers! New York Times	05/22/13	Poor	"It's not clear whether this film is trying to celebrate people of advanced age or mock them, but it doesn't really matter. Either way, this is one terrible movie."
2.	InAPPropriate Comedy New York Times	03/23/13	Poor	"...memorably awful.... stunningly awful. It is so awful that we are fortunate that 'awful' has an adverbial use that means 'very' or 'extremely.' This movie is awfully awful."
3.	Nature Calls New York Times	11/09/12	Poor	"If the Boy Scouts offered a merit badge for inept filmmaking, Todd Rohal would certainly earn it... an unwatchably bad movie..."
4.	Excuse Me for Living New York Times	10/12/12	Poor	"Ric Klass cannot be excused for making 'Excuse Me for Living,' a lumbering mess in which he has somehow trapped several recognizable actors."
5.	Eulogy for a Vampire New York Times	10/23/09	Poor	"...spectacularly bad... This one is aimed at those who find the mix of religious imagery, whippings, animal blood, amateurish cinematography and moronic dialogue to be arousing."
6.	If One Thing Matters: A Film About Wolfgang Tillmans New York Times	09/18/09	Poor	"...insufferable, insipid... you're watching Mr. Tillmans talk on the phone, laugh at his own banal comments, be praised by sycophants and so on. It's like choking down 72 minutes of a stranger's unedited home videos..."
7.	A Haunted House New York Times	01/12/13	Poor	"...a crass and clumsy attempt to parody the genre of horror movies built on hand-held camera work and supposedly found footage... crude, sometimes offensive..."
8.	Piranha 3DD New York Times	06/01/12	Poor	"The director, John Gulager, has no idea how to mix his ingredients to create a savvy self-parody. Instead he flings comic bits and gross-out gags around desperately."
9.	After Fall, Winter New York Times	01/27/12	Poor	"...self-aggrandizing... None of it is convincing; Mr. Schaeffer's acting is shallow (Ms. Brocheré's isn't); and the Shakespearean-tragedy ending stands a good chance of drawing guffaws."
10.	Beneath The Darkness (2012) New York Times	01/06/12	Poor	"There is not an original thought in this story... few genuine scares and, by the end, some unintended laughter as the proceedings grow too silly to bear."
11.	Art History (2011) New York Times	09/22/11	Poor	"...anyone who sees director Joe Swanberg's insufferable 'Art History' and doesn't wish for the 74 minutes back has an empty life indeed.... What is this, junior high?"
12.	Eating Out 3: All You Can Eat New York Times	10/09/09	Poor	"...the film has nothing to do with the restaurant business, lest any foodies wander into this ineptly written and acted gay sex comedy by accident.... The sex (of which there isn't much) isn't sexy, and the humor isn't funny."
13.	Someday This Pain Will Be Useful to You New York Times	10/05/12	Poor	"...excruciating... First there is its fascination with the utterly ordinary angst of a moody, broody teenager... The only bright spot is Lucy Liu..."
14.	General Education New York Times	08/24/12	Poor	"...humorless comedy... the lead character's sister is more interesting than he is, and she spends much of her screen time as a mute mime.... uninvolving..."
15.	Reuniting The Rubins New York Times	03/16/12	Poor	"...lazy... the kind of stuff an amateur screenwriter reaches for when he has nothing original to say, because he's seen it work in other movies. It sure doesn't work here."
16.	The Pill (2011) New York Times	12/16/11	Poor	"Is there anything more cloyingly irritating than watching young singles playing a drinking game?... a sort of hook-up horror story.... it might be more entertaining if any of the three main characters were at all likable."
17.	Creature (2011) New York Times	09/10/11	Poor	"...the boggy undergrowth is apparently still where young people go to be eaten by strange beasts, as we learn from 'Creature'... long-on-gore, short-on-brains..."
18.	Golf In The Kingdom New York Times	07/28/11	Poor	"Golf may be the world's dullest spectator sport, not counting socce... By that standard, 'Golf in the Kingdom' captures the game perfectly.... Everyone spouts nicely turned baloney elevating golf to the level of a religious experience, which grows tedious fairly quickly."
19.	A Love Affair of Sorts New York Times	06/24/11	Poor	"...the it's-all-about-me nature of modern life already feels like a point that no longer needs making. Yeah, we're self-absorbed and shallow; so what else is new?"
20.	The Red Chapel (Det røde kapel) New York Times	12/29/10	Poor	"...sloppy... The question of whether a person can buy into a repressive regime and still retain her humanity hangs over this film but is left unexplored."
