Knock Down the House (2019) 99% B+ EDIT “I found myself in awe of the courage these candidates had to put their name out there, and [Rachel] Lears is right there with them as they pound the pavement, knock on doors, and fight for the causes that got them off their butts in the first place.” – The Film Stage Dec 10, 2019 Full Review Reese the Movie: A Movie About Reese (2019) 2/4 EDIT “My lack of tingles aside, let's not forget that this is patently an ad - and I haven't, since watching, opted for a deliciously chewy peanut butter cup.” – Globe and Mail Jun 6, 2019 Full Review Alt-Right: Age of Rage (2018) 88% 3/5 EDIT “While the documentary can't figure out an elegant conclusion to this intensity, the images from the rally - including the tragic death of counter-protester Heather Heyer - are nevertheless a vital snapshot of violent racism's cyclical grip.” – NOW Toronto Apr 26, 2018 Full Review Jean of the Joneses (2016) 75% 2/5 EDIT “While its themes don't feel properly developed, breakout title actor Taylour Paige and her fictional family (including Sherri Shepherd and Gloria Reuben) make the Joneses worth keeping up with.” – NOW Toronto Sep 9, 2016 Full Review Christine (2016) 88% 4/5 EDIT “Hall's portrayal of the fragile Chubbuck amidst newsroom pressures and industry sexism is more than enough reason to stay tuned.” – NOW Toronto Sep 9, 2016 Full Review Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates (2016) 38% 3/5 EDIT “While it does suffer from inconsistent characters and a clunky first act, the energetic debauchery, improvised one-liners and memorable bit parts result in a fun -- if formulaic -- comic luau.” – NOW Toronto Jul 6, 2016 Full Review
