See You When I See You (2026) 64% B- EDIT “It’s so earnest, so vulnerable in its portrait of the disappointments and anxieties of young adulthood, that one tends to forgive its tweer flights of fancy.” – IndieWire Jan 28, 2026 Full Review Leviticus (2026) 100% B+ EDIT “Leviticus is not a perfect horror film; its ending feels abrupt, and some side plots feel unfinished. Wasikowska, doing her best with a thin character, feels particularly overlooked. But the film’s moody atmosphere makes it an enjoyably disquieting ride.” – IndieWire Jan 25, 2026 Full Review Mr. Nobody Against Putin (2025) 100% EDIT “Talankin is the hero of “Mr. Nobody,” an effective look of one man’s resistance against President Vladimir V. Putin’s patriotic curriculum policy. ” – New York Times Jan 22, 2026 Full Review Sound of Falling (2025) 95% EDIT “Here is a movie whose atavistic excursion through time transfixes, even as its psychology remains as fuzzy as a photograph smeared by motion.” – New York Times Jan 15, 2026 Full Review We Bury the Dead (2024) 86% EDIT “We Bury the Dead is most haunting when it gestures at a world dazed with trauma and explores a path to personal closure through collective efforts.” – New York Times Jan 2, 2026 Full Review Goodbye June (2025) 65% EDIT “Brimming with good nature, even in its more flat-footed sequences, “Goodbye June” wants us to know that none of these traits or familial currents are immutable — especially not in the face of a dying parent with a sharp tongue.” – New York Times Dec 24, 2025 Full Review Fackham Hall (2025) 74% EDIT “Directed by Jim O’Hanlon, “Fackham Hall” is enlivened by its cast of actors, who ride the waves of wordplay with a game commitment to the bit.” – New York Times Dec 4, 2025 Full Review Left-Handed Girl (2025) 98% EDIT “Expressive visuals and evocative scenes, including one involving an overactive meerkat, make “Left-Handed Girl” a memorable family affair.” – New York Times Dec 2, 2025 Full Review Cactus Pears (2025) 97% EDIT “While the film centers on the comfort Anand finds with Balya and vice versa, it is also an elegantly reserved study of Anand’s grief, finding a rhythm in its scenes of ritual that allows us to ache alongside.” – New York Times Nov 20, 2025 Full Review Bunny (2025) 79% EDIT “Bunny is a New York movie that eschews realism but still brims with authentic affection, and in doing so, bursts with life.” – New York Times Nov 13, 2025 Full Review Sarah's Oil (2025) 83% EDIT “A David and Goliath story with big feelings, edifying speeches and a swelling score, “Sarah’s Oil” is a movie that will surprise nobody.” – New York Times Nov 6, 2025 Full Review Hedda (2025) 89% EDIT “While DaCosta’s intelligence as a writer and director makes “Hedda” a standout film, her penchant for play makes it a delightful one.” – New York Times Oct 30, 2025 Full Review Regretting You (2025) 29% EDIT “It’s formulaic and predictable, with goofy writing and clumsy editing. The saving grace is the actors, who manage to perform even the most ridiculous lines with a straight face.” – New York Times Oct 24, 2025 Full Review Roofman (2025) 87% EDIT “Here is a protagonist who clearly straddles the line between right and wrong; the trouble is that in “Roofman,” that line wobbles, leaving the movie somewhere between a fun-loving caper and a finger-wagging morality tale. ” – New York Times Oct 9, 2025 Full Review Steve (2025) 78% EDIT “In hewing closely to Steve, the whole affair takes on a grating note of self-sacrifice, of perseverance through suffering” – New York Times Oct 2, 2025 Full Review Gabby's Dollhouse: The Movie (2025) 88% EDIT “Gabby’s Dollhouse is strictly not suitable for anyone over reading age. If parents want to stay awake through the drivel, I’d suggest bringing a book.” – New York Times Sep 25, 2025 Full Review Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle (2025) 98% EDIT “For the casual fan, the chief reason to seek out “Infinity Castle” is for its visuals, which position passionately emotive characters over impressionistic backdrops. ” – New York Times Sep 19, 2025 Full Review Peacock (2024) 100% EDIT “Watching Matthias on the job is entertaining enough, even as the movie’s allegorical ambitions are stymied by a narrative inertia, and by a sneaking suspicion that we’ve seen this sort of social commentary before.” – New York Times Sep 19, 2025 Full Review The History of Sound (2025) 70% EDIT “The History of Sound doesn’t trust its own gentleness, and the inertia of the filmmaking gives the whole affair a detached, try-hard feeling. ” – New York Times Sep 11, 2025 Full Review Tinā (2024) 95% EDIT “There's just too much story to stuff into a two-hour running time, and the events — including not one but two critical health crises — demand more than passing scenes.” – New York Times Sep 4, 2025 Full Review A Little Prayer (2023) 93% EDIT “This is a filmmaker able to wrest real feeling from his actors, and from his audience.” – New York Times Aug 28, 2025 Full Review Eenie Meanie (2025) 43% EDIT “Despite its title sounding dangerously like a kids’ movie, “Eenie Meanie” is a bloody heist film that brims with cheap thrills and tawdry action. ” – New York Times Aug 22, 2025 Full Review Lurker (2025) 95% B+ EDIT “If “Lurker” eventually succumbs to certain genre tropes and a handful of story bumps, it makes up for its limitations in perspicacity and the overall strength of its filmmaking.” – IndieWire Aug 18, 2025 Full Review East of Wall (2025) 95% EDIT “In her first feature, the writer-director Kate Beecroft gathers the right pieces for an authentic regional-realist film, based on Tabatha’s life on the ranch. ” – New York Times Aug 14, 2025 Full Review Boys Go to Jupiter (2024) 93% EDIT “Here is a movie notably unafraid to manifest the weirdest of the weird, no matter what the Mr. Moolahs of the world have to say. ” – New York Times Aug 7, 2025 Full Review
