Damsel (2018) 67% A- EDIT “Mia Wasikowska gives a fine performance as Penelope.” – InSession Film Nov 5, 2024 Full Review The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind (2019) 86% A- EDIT “This is a feel-good film, yes, but it is also much more than that. There are painful moments along with the joyful ones. ” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review High Flying Bird (2019) 91% B EDIT “It is flashy, stylish, and perceptive.” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review Velvet Buzzsaw (2019) 61% C- EDIT “Velvet Buzzsaw may think itself as art, but I fear that it is just another entry to throw on the Netflix heap of content.” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review IO (2019) 33% D EDIT “A jumbled mess that never really presents a cohesive narrative.” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review Triple Frontier (2019) 71% B EDIT “I think what we really mean is that films need to earn their shifts in tone. If a film is going to display life’s wanton curveballs, it needs to show that it’s willing to get down into the grittiness of this thing we call life...” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review The Highwaymen (2019) 58% B EDIT “The power of The Highwaymen is that it allows room for the viewer to draw their own conclusions.” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review Unicorn Store (2017) 66% B EDIT “Visually, Kit’s artistic bent opens up a bevy of colorful visual choices. The acting is strong across the board. ” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review Under the Silver Lake (2018) 58% D EDIT “By the end of the film, I no longer cared about the conspiracy Sam is trying to uncover. That's a fatal flaw for any noir.” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review The Perfection (2018) 71% F EDIT “Maybe there's something here about the insanity of genius, but the film doesn't want to reach for anything that insightful. All it wants is to provide a few scares and let its flashy camerawork attempt to prop up a subpar story. Unfortunately, it can't.” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review Wine Country (2019) 66% C+ EDIT “It’s fun just to see all these SNL greats back together again. That alone makes the movie worth watching.” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile (2019) 54% D- EDIT “There are bits and pieces here (including another fine performance from John Malkovich), but none of them are allowed to merge into anything worthwhile.” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review The Man Who Killed Don Quixote (2018) 66% B- EDIT “The performances carry it through, and it is legitimately funny and enchanting. The beautiful scenery and the striking cinematography from Nicola Pecorini also add much to the experience.” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review I Am Mother (2019) 89% B EDIT “Rugaard has to be able to play the naiveté of a child while also underscoring the fact that this particular child has been uncommonly trained and is quite knowledgeable and resourceful. She handles it well...” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review Late Night (2019) 80% A- EDIT “This film is well-written, overall. Kaling does a fantastic job...” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review Fast Color (2018) 83% B- EDIT “This is an ambitious project from director Julia Hart, who is a talented artist in her own right. There’s a lot here to like, and you can see the pieces of an incredible film here...” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review The Irishman (2019) 95% EDIT “This is not a blatant retread of films like Taxi Driver and The Gangs of New York. The film has shots or sequences that mirror those films, but it brings something new to the table from a thematic or technical standpoint.” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review The Laundromat (2019) 42% C EDIT “A low point for Soderbergh...” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie (2019) 92% C EDIT “White is one of the great characters of recent memory. He dominates the story of Breaking Bad like few characters. Pinkman doesn’t carry this story in quite the same way.” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review American Woman (2019) 57% B EDIT “Missteps do not wholly ruin the experience. This is a strong film...” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review Sword of Trust (2019) 94% B EDIT “I really enjoyed this film on multiple levels. It is so funny, and it also got me thinking about our culture and the ways that false narratives travel.” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review Little Woods (2018) 95% A- EDIT “DaCosta does a fantastic job – especially as a debut director – at finding the opportunities for cinematic moments in this sparse story. Even when the film does slow down, it never comes to a halt.” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review 1985 (2018) 96% B+ EDIT “Chiklis gives the best performance of his career, and the scenes between Smith and Chung are some of the film’s strongest.” – InSession Film May 10, 2024 Full Review Like Father (2018) 48% B- EDIT “Though it takes some leaps of varying sizes, some of which we may not be inclined to fully believe, Like Father is an enjoyable film that brings genuine laughs...” – InSession Film May 9, 2024 Full Review To All the Boys I've Loved Before (2018) 96% B EDIT “One must mention the performance by Condor. Her comedic timing is perfect, but more than that, she really embodies this character...” – InSession Film May 9, 2024 Full Review
