Widows (2018)
91%
EDIT
“A well-rounded entertainment with some points to make along the way, Widows constitutes a frustratingly rare multiplex prospect: a good-time movie from a feel-bad director.” –

The Old Man & the Gun (2018)
93%
EDIT
“That Lowery leaves so much to the imagination-that he adores Tucker and enjoys being around him but refuses to explain him-is perhaps the movie's greatest virtue.” –

Support the Girls (2018)
91%
EDIT
“Bujalski frames most of Support the Girls as an almost real-time delineation of chaos, but his storytelling elegance - delicate, nearly invisible foreshadowing; cogent evocations of backstory - adds reflective layers to the surface anarchy.” –

The Age of Innocence (1993)

Winter Brothers (2017)
91%
EDIT
“Plmason opts to use Emil's angst not for a forward-moving tale of vengeance but in service of an increasingly abstract study of environment and interiority.” –

Ava (2017)

Let the Sunshine In (2017)

Gemini (2017)
70%
EDIT
“Gemini is a shimmering puzzler that begins with an act of Land Ho!-esque palling-around before warping into an unlikely detective story in the Cold Weather vein.” –

The Last Family (2016)
78%
EDIT
“. The movie sticks in the mind not as a full-on, time-honored biopic but as a queasily warts-and-all peeling back of a family dynamic that happened to involve a figure of cultish renown.” –

Forever My Girl (2018)
25%
EDIT
“Wolf establishes only a half-formed idea of the decisions, fights, and silences that have shaped these characters' lives, so the cast often seems to be shouting into a vacuum.” –

The Commuter (2018)

EDIT
“A story of a routine gone awry - the kind of story that can only be fully sold if the routine itself is affectionately felt.” –

Stratton (2017)
0%
EDIT
“Cooper, requisitely bearded, plays Stratton merely as a mildly sullen professional who goes about his business; there's little surface indication of the hurt and loneliness that must be driving this man at each step.” –

“With each additional appearance, Metz seems less like a person worth investing in than a sentient beard chiming in to remind us that we're watching a morally tortured American western.” –
