Asking for It (2021) 23% 1/4 EDIT “Asking for It is like a cheap puppet show -- everyone here feels like a flat paper cut-out, jerked helter-skelter by painfully obvious strings, mouthpieces for the man standing just behind the curtain.” – RogerEbert.com Mar 5, 2022 Full Review Marry Me (2022) 61% EDIT “Overall, it’s an easy-breezy nostalgia trip of a film that retains many of the most delightfully fluffy qualities of Lopez’s most famous earlier career romcoms. ” – Pajiba Feb 28, 2022 Full Review Oscar Peterson: Black + White (2020) 73% 2/4 EDIT “In trying to encompass a whole life in 90 minutes, its breadth renders any particular depth impossible.” – RogerEbert.com Feb 15, 2022 Full Review The Sky is Everywhere (2022) 66% 1.5/4 EDIT “The visual craftsmanship is stunning, and fans of director Josephine Deckers work in particular might find something to enjoy here, but as a story it quickly buckles under its own weight.” – RogerEbert.com Feb 11, 2022 Full Review The 355 (2022) 24% EDIT “Next week, I will have forgotten that I ever saw this movie and will be ever so slightly happier for it, though I will not recall why. But I will be happier.” – Pajiba Jan 15, 2022 Full Review The Pink Cloud (2021) 95% 2/4 EDIT “The intentionality and editorial eye that make the style of this film so compelling feels sorely lacking from the script, which is at once scattered and repetitive.” – RogerEbert.com Jan 14, 2022 Full Review Parallel Mothers (2021) 96% EDIT “It might not be Almodóvar's best, but it's still well worth a watch, bolder and more entertaining than the average cinematic offering.” – Pajiba Jan 8, 2022 Full Review Flee (2021) 98% EDIT “It is an incredibly powerful message, even if the film itself sometimes fumbles in how to best use its medium in service of this message.” – Pajiba Dec 22, 2021 Full Review Wild Indian (2021) 90% EDIT “Despite its shortcomings, Wild Indian is still ultimately a commendably strong debut from Corbine that establishes him as a filmmaker to watch and serves as an excellent showcase for Michael Greyeyes's considerable talents.” – Pajiba Dec 7, 2021 Full Review King Richard (2021) 90% EDIT “King Richard is a familiar tale of two sports heroines given an exciting new spin, and a welcome return to form for Will Smith.” – Pajiba Nov 28, 2021 Full Review Son of Monarchs (2020) 92% EDIT “While it can't stick the landing, it's got more than enough unique merits to make the film worth the trip.” – Pajiba Nov 12, 2021 Full Review Passing (2021) 91% EDIT “Clare feels like Passing's center of gravity, but Irene is technically the principal character in terms of screen time. While Thompson gives a strong performance overall, the film struggles to crack her character.” – Pajiba Oct 21, 2021 Full Review Blue Bayou (2021) 75% EDIT “Buried in this mixed bag is a great film here buckling under the weight of too many fix-ins, and it's a real shame.” – Pajiba Oct 12, 2021 Full Review No Time to Die (2021) 83% EDIT “It's hard to forgive No Time to Die for its sins because of the nature of its unevenness.” – Pajiba Oct 12, 2021 Full Review The Tragedy of Macbeth (2021) 93% EDIT “Every frame of The Tragedy of Macbeth is a work of art. There is not so much as a hair on a head or a leaf on a tree that does not feel precisely curated.” – Pajiba Oct 12, 2021 Full Review Candyman (2021) 84% EDIT “Candyman is at its best as a story about stories-how they themselves are living things that evolve, the degree to which they are shaped by interpretation, how they can be manipulated” – Pajiba Sep 1, 2021 Full Review No Sudden Move (2021) 92% EDIT “Ultimately, though, it's still a well-shot, well-acted, star-studded revisionist noir crime drama. There are far worse ways to spend two hours, even if the film does feel like it falls a good bit short of its full potential.” – Pajiba Jul 7, 2021 Full Review Catch the Fair One (2021) 93% EDIT “In the end, Catch the Fair One does not feel like the best possible version of what it could have been... Nonetheless, its shortcomings are easily overwhelmed by its strengths and the fresh perspective it brings to an age-old tale of vengeance.” – Pajiba Jun 24, 2021 Full Review Rise Again: Tulsa and the Red Summer (2021) 100% 3/4 EDIT “A worthwhile introduction to a horrific but fundamentally important part of American history conveniently ignored by the standard K-12 curriculum.” – RogerEbert.com Jun 18, 2021 Full Review A Quiet Place Part II (2021) 91% EDIT “Overall, A Quiet Place Part II might just be about the most sequel-ish sequel to ever sequel, in that it's basically a repeat of the original, only a little bit bigger and showier.” – Pajiba May 29, 2021 Full Review The Water Man (2020) 78% EDIT “Plays like 90 straight minutes of déjà vu.” – Pajiba May 24, 2021 Full Review Spiral: From the Book of Saw (2021) 39% EDIT “The only thing there is to root for is the end credits, and that they appear sooner rather than later.” – Pajiba May 17, 2021 Full Review The Outside Story (2020) 88% EDIT “The Outside Story is not the sort of movie that's going to change your life, but then again not every movie needs to be. If you're looking for something cozy and warm to try on for 85 minutes, it suits the bill perfectly.” – Pajiba May 5, 2021 Full Review Gunda (2020) 98% EDIT “There are plenty of creative decisions being made here, and a definite angle being presented. As an emotional argument, it takes the viewer on an incredibly effective journey.” – Pajiba Apr 22, 2021 Full Review Bad Trip (2021) 80% EDIT “For lovers of hidden camera comedies, Bad Trip is a solid entry in the genre worth a watch.” – Pajiba Apr 1, 2021 Full Review
