Film critic at new releases in addition to ‘ Avengers ‘

If you are blinded by a solid three-star reviews from critics Wesley Morris, Globe you may have missed the release of other films that packs a powerful punch, although much different.

“This is not a movie,” a documentary film that was shot by Director Jafar Panahi Iran while under house arrest for “Assembly and collusion with the intent to do harm to the country’s national security,” received the highest star rating from our critics this week, earning a full four stars from Ty Burr, who called it “quietly devastating.”

While “this is not the Film” might deserve more attention, another movie that is overshadowed by the release of “The Avengers” may be worthy of inclusion. United Kingdom comedy “The Best exotic Marigold Hotel” received two stars, though Burr to call “proof that art house film can as the clich d and soggily se-sentimental big-ticket products that play at the multiplex.” The Film starred Judi Dench, Maggie Smith and “almost every aging actor United Kingdom who didn t make it into ‘ Harry Potter ‘ film” and some that do as retired British in India. Burr wrote: “It’s predic fluff, sometimes pleasantly so, at others times irritatingly.”

Tom Russo is a regular correspondent for the film and wrote a weekly column on the DVD releases.

Nicole Cammorata is the producer for the arts

Tugg, Startup social cinema, using Crowdsourcing to choose …

In the summer of 2001, as a high schooler recently discovered living in a suburb of Atlanta, there is one film I just have to see when it was released.

In the referendum, release-based, as I am sure you all remember, the character later makes no sense from a Lothario “The Chris Rock Show,” and directed by Louis C.K. not-yet-no–all my friends and I could talk about; and again on Friday’s out, “Pootie Tang” is not on the screen one of our local theater. We are very very DISA-Poot-ed that we might miss out on the first day of “Tang”, and we have to beg our parents to push us over an hour to the nearest displays.

I think we can all agree that, in this day and age, nobody has to spend so much effort or energy to fulfill the desire as simple as seeing “Pootie Tang” on opening night. (Partly) which is why I’m excited for the new startup Tugg, finally able to destroy “Pootie Tang” scenario described above.

Tugg was founded by Nicolas Gonda, a film Executive who has worked extensively with Director Terrence Malick (the film that has a certain proximity with “Pootie Tang”), and in need of funding model sites like Kickstarter crowd and apply to your local cinema: anyone can choose a movie from Tugg’s library that they wanted to see the filtered, along with participating Neighborhood movie theaters; These options make the registration page immediately, with movie info, including showtime, date and ticket prices.

If enough people committed to purchase tickets on the site, Tugg “tips” and playback is activated. All buyers on the hook for their tickets, and theaters on the hook to screen the film at the time on that date. This is a win-win for consumers and movie theatres: Theatre screening of the guaranteed full, profi, and ticket buyers can enjoy movies they all really want to see at the cinema (the film may or may not “Pootie Tang”).
