Confessions of a Good Samaritan (2023) Lael Loewenstein A fascinating window into that whole world and highlights the need for organ donation.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Boneyard (2024) Andy Klein It's interesting, but you have to know going in that the basic case was never solved, and they stay true to that.
Posted Jul 13, 2024

Posted Jul 13, 2024
The Imaginary (2023) Andy Klein It's a good film, but not a great film. It's longer than it needs to be.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
June Zero (2022) Lael Loewenstein The parts are more impactful than the whole... It doesn't completely lend itself to coherence, but there are elements that are very potent.
Posted Jul 13, 2024

Posted Jul 13, 2024

Posted Jul 13, 2024
Despicable Me 4 (2024) Charles Solomon The well is clearly running pretty dry. You've seen everything in this before.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
MaXXXine (2024) Amy Nicholson I like this series so much as a commentary on the artificiality of Hollywood... Terrific fun.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
A Family Affair (2024) Peter Rainer It makes no emotional sense whatsoever.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
A Family Affair (2024) Lael Loewenstein It is what I would call "ludicrously bad."
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Daddio (2023) Peter Rainer It's very fortunate that this is a two-hander with two very photogenic actors.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Daddio (2023) Lael Loewenstein A pretty good little chamber piece.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Green Border (2023) Peter Rainer It doesn't pull any punches on all sides.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Janet Planet (2023) Peter Rainer It all has a unifying vision because of the connection between these two women.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Janet Planet (2023) Lael Loewenstein It doesn't always work, but when it does it's kind of spectacular.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1 (2024) Peter Rainer There's nothing original about it... But I thought it was a serviceable Western.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
A Quiet Place: Day One (2024) Lael Loewenstein A serviceable prequel -- and that's the nicest thing I can say about it... I was invested enough, and it was OK.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Tiger Stripes (2023) Andy Klein Technically a little bit crude, but it delivers.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Federer: Twelve Final Days (2024) Christy Lemire The tone of this film mirrors Roger Federer as a player and human being: elegant, classy, detached and cool.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person (2023) Andy Klein It's quite enjoyable, witty and low-key.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Summer Solstice (2023) Christy Lemire Maybe a little bit too languid, but has some interesting observations and a cool sense of place.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
The Exorcism (2024) Christy Lemire What's frustrating about this is that it had potential.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
The Exorcism (2024) Andy Klein A totally unnecessary film that doesn't need to exist in any universe.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Fancy Dance (2023) Christy Lemire It's maybe a little too subtle, but the performances and sense of place are so strong.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Thelma (2024) Andy Klein A charming little film.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Thelma (2024) Christy Lemire June Squibb is a total delight.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
The Bikeriders (2023) Andy Klein Two hours hanging out with a bunch of louts. This film had no pleasure for me.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Kinds of Kindness (2024) Christy Lemire I was riveted always. Yes, it's very long, but it moves.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Kinds of Kindness (2024) Andy Klein Implicitly a film about current American politics.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
I Used to be Funny (2023) Claudia Puig Ultimately, it did win me over on the strength of the lead performer, Rachel Sennott.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
I Used to be Funny (2023) Wade Major It feels a little threadbare, and it took me an hour to get into it... On balance, I'd recommend it, but with some big reservations.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Ghostlight (2024) Claudia Puig It deals with [grief and loss] in a really fresh way.
Posted Jul 13, 2024

Posted Jul 13, 2024

Posted Jul 13, 2024

Posted Jul 13, 2024
Brats (2024) Wade Major A fascinating documentary. I applaud Andrew McCarthy for making it.
Posted Jul 13, 2024

Posted Jul 13, 2024
Inside Out 2 (2024) Claudia Puig I found it a worthy sequel. Just about as clever, moving, and enjoyable as the original film.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Longing (2024) Manuel Betancourt No character functions like a human being. None of them make decisions or tell you things, and the dialogue is so sterile.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Longing (2024) Tim Cogshell Manipulative. Clever, but manipulative.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Someday We'll Tell Each Other Everything (2023) Manuel Betancourt Fable-like, literary, long and luscious.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
Rowdy Girl (2023) Manuel Betancourt It has a message, delivers it with the bluntness of a hammer, and doesn't go beyond that.
Posted Jul 13, 2024
