Union County (2026) 100% EDIT “Instead of leaning into the histrionic hallmarks of the genre, Poulter opts for something more inward. ” – The Film Stage Jan 26, 2026 Full Review Christy (2025) 67% EDIT “David Michod’s conventional but compelling biopic, which hinges on Sweeney’s nuanced, and physical performance. The movie wouldn’t be nearly as good or unnerving without her.” – GQ Magazine [UK] Dec 6, 2025 Full Review Stiller & Meara: Nothing Is Lost (2025) 93% EDIT “What makes this feel like a worthy endeavor is the extent to which Stiller is willing to be vulnerable and interrogate his own role within his family.” – The Film Stage Oct 9, 2025 Full Review Anemone (2025) 53% EDIT “Day-Lewis has crafted something haunting and exquisite, a slow-burning, two-handed meditation about grief, regret, and the kind of absence that irreparably fractures a family.” – The Film Stage Sep 28, 2025 Full Review The Lost Bus (2025) 88% EDIT “Paul Greengrass has such a natural feel for depicting disaster––the kind of kinetic, high-stakes action that keeps moving and escalating and pivoting––that it’s easy to forget how few directors get it right.” – The Film Stage Sep 16, 2025 Full Review Steve (2025) 78% EDIT “Murphy’s intricate, calibrated performance struggles to break through in the same way, burdened by Mielants’ jarring shifts in tone and constrained by Porter’s jittery script.” – The Film Stage Sep 15, 2025 Full Review Maddie's Secret (2025) 88% EDIT “Early has a natural way with the camera, leaning on close-ups to capture micro expressions and further sud up all the soapiness. In both words and images, Maddie’s Secret is ripped straight from the afterschool-special playbook. ” – The Film Stage Sep 14, 2025 Full Review Eternity (2025) 77% EDIT “The only consistent comedy comes from Anna and Ryan, whose battling allegiances––and own romantic subplot––provide Eternity temporary relief from its cyclical plot. ” – The Film Stage Sep 12, 2025 Full Review Teenage Wasteland (2025) 100% B EDIT “It’s inspiring to watch. Isseks provided the tools and the idea, but the students took the cause to new heights, a symptom of their strong feelings about the governmental negligence occurring in their backyards.” – The Film Stage Feb 7, 2025 Full Review Atropia (2025) 41% C+ EDIT “At its worst, Atropia can suggest a glorified second-half SNL sketch, not nearly as funny or incisive as it wants to be. ” – The Film Stage Feb 5, 2025 Full Review Omaha (2025) 89% B EDIT “Quiet and heartbreaking, if not slightly conventional, Omaha unfolds like a slow-burning mystery, mostly taking Ella’s skeptical, worried perspective as she tries piecing together clues about this unexpected family road trip.” – The Film Stage Feb 4, 2025 Full Review Twinless (2025) 97% B+ EDIT “[Sweeney has] got an acute feel for how to deploy humor and grief into the same space, especially as more backstory unwinds and the movie’s heightened stakes infiltrate the perception of his characters. ” – The Film Stage Feb 3, 2025 Full Review Love, Brooklyn (2025) 69% B- EDIT “You can feel the warm breeze filtering through Love, Brooklyn, a gentle, dream-like summer movie that often teeters on the edge of reality. ” – The Film Stage Jan 31, 2025 Full Review Suburban Fury (2024) 100% B- EDIT “A formally audacious and perplexing portrait of Moore that contextualizes her extremist actions within one of the most transformative periods in American history.” – The Film Stage Oct 18, 2024 Full Review Inside Out 2 (2024) 91% B EDIT “A perfectly enjoyable, reliably entertaining, if safer and less awe-inspiring second installment in what could be a long-running franchise if Pixar so wanted. ” – The Film Stage Jun 13, 2024 Full Review Winner (2024) 54% C EDIT “It’s hard to feel righteous indignation from this story. Even at its most effective dramatic moments, when you should be clenching your fists, you only end up shrugging. ” – The Film Stage Jan 29, 2024 Full Review A Different Man (2024) 93% A- EDIT “It’s a dark, hilarious, and deeply unsettling portrait of a disfigured man that’s also an unflinching mirror of a looks-focused industry. ” – The Film Stage Jan 26, 2024 Full Review Freaky Tales (2024) 75% C- EDIT “Incorporating sci-fi elements and animation with a hip-hop, punk, and classic rock-inspired soundtrack, Freaky Tales wants the verve of Pulp Fiction but seems to have been reverse-engineered from its structural conceit. ” – The Film Stage Jan 25, 2024 Full Review Look Into My Eyes (2024) 91% B+ EDIT “In this deeply moving, compassionate exploration, determining whether this small and goofy group actually has real powers is beside the point. ” – The Film Stage Jan 24, 2024 Full Review Love Lies Bleeding (2024) 94% B+ EDIT “Glass handles the whiplash of romance to murder with a deft touch, riding the highs of a haunting synth score and two performances that work in-tandem. ” – The Film Stage Jan 24, 2024 Full Review Girls State (2024) 95% B EDIT “One senses friction between the movie McBaine and Moss set out to make and the one developing in front of them. ” – The Film Stage Jan 24, 2024 Full Review Love Me (2024) 46% C+ EDIT “I wish the Zucheros spent more time unpacking the way these two operating systems sense the thinness of the characters they think they’re supposed to be playing and the feelings they’re supposed to be feeling. ” – The Film Stage Jan 24, 2024 Full Review Thelma (2024) 98% B EDIT “A loveable, low-stakes joyride from director Josh Margolin.” – The Film Stage Jan 20, 2024 Full Review Silent Night (2023) 60% D+ EDIT “As much as Woo likes incorporating old techniques that have become contemporary ones, he just as haphazardly mimics his disciples. ” – The Film Stage Nov 30, 2023 Full Review Janet Planet (2023) 85% A- EDIT “Baker casts a warm, humid spell with her keen eye and ear––she uses up the entire width of the frame with compositions that provoke mystery, and builds an organic soundscape of bird calls and cricket chirps that lull you into Lacy’s world. ” – The Film Stage Oct 9, 2023 Full Review
