Movies TV Shows
Oppenheimer (2023) 93% 4.5/5 EDIT ““Oppenheimer” can very much be read as a point of no return for the obsessive, visionary archetype, but it’s far more than that; a cautionary tale and character study as only this movie magician could make.” – Projector of Feelings Jul 20, 2023 Full Review Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy (2021) 99% A- EDIT “Whimsical and poignant... Hamaguchi is acutely interested in honing in on tiny details which may have unknowable impact.” – The Playlist Sep 1, 2022 Full Review Xiao Wu (1998) 100% 4.5/5 EDIT ““Xiao Wu” very much feels like a first film, but one from a filmmaker whose talent is immensely clear, and ever present on screen” – Projector of Feelings Sep 1, 2022 Full Review Days (2020) 96% 4.5/5 EDIT “Tsai Ming-liang's “Days” beautifully personifies Abbas Kiarostami’s sound theory that “cinema is only half made on the screen.”” – Projector of Feelings Sep 1, 2022 Full Review Nope (2022) 83% 4.5/5 EDIT “Peele’s terrific third feature, “Nope,” pairs old fashioned Hollywood showmanship with the director’s trademark blend of humor and dread, crafting a 1970s-style, thinking-viewer’s blockbuster with more spectacle than any contemporary Disney production.” – Projector of Feelings Aug 31, 2022 Full Review God's Country (2022) 88% B+ EDIT “"God's Country" has a powerful mood and atmosphere, with stretches of silence deployed with invisibly adept skill that never loses a handle on its ominously tender humanism.” – The Playlist Jan 29, 2022 Full Review The Exiles (2022) 86% B+ EDIT “"The Exiles" is an essential look at "philosophical homelessness" and an expert example of documentary cinema as a truth-telling device.” – The Playlist Jan 29, 2022 Full Review Meet Me in the Bathroom (2022) 74% C- EDIT “"Meet Me in the Bathroom" feels like a surface-level music documentary with little mindfulness for creative expression or the shades of reality outside the fame of its subjects.” – The Playlist Jan 29, 2022 Full Review Every Day in Kaimuki (2022) 75% C EDIT “Alika Tengan displays talent but the creative vibrancy lays dormant, as if waiting to be unleashed across the sea.” – The Playlist Jan 29, 2022 Full Review Bruised (2020) 51% C- EDIT “"Bruised's" grim drama feels obligatory and heavy for the sake of being heavy.” – The Playlist Nov 14, 2021 Full Review Tick, Tick... Boom! (2021) 88% C- EDIT “Full to the brim with non-stop cameos of previous stage productions/film adaptations, tick, tick... BOOM! will be very enjoyable for die-hard Broadway lovers but feels incredibly hyperbolic as mainstream entertainment.” – The Playlist Nov 11, 2021 Full Review Out of the Blue (1980) 95% A EDIT “Hopper's 3rd directorial effort is a work that transmogrifies itself so deftly it somehow sways between pensive and punk.” – The Playlist Nov 7, 2021 Full Review Ultrasound (2021) 77% B- EDIT “"Ultrasound's" plotting threads take time to gel and settle in. Still, its overall use of sound and style creates a hauntingly disorienting atmosphere right from the outset.” – The Playlist Jun 29, 2021 Full Review Driveways (2019) 99% B EDIT “You'd have to have a heart of stone to not want to reach out and hold hands with the characters by the end.” – The Playlist Feb 7, 2021 Full Review El Planeta (2021) 95% A- EDIT “El Planeta is a profound debut film - the announcement of a major comedic talent with an ear and eye for artistic ideas that are truly meaningful not just creatively fetishistic.” – The Playlist Feb 1, 2021 Full Review My Psychedelic Love Story (2020) 90% B- EDIT “The ideological questions asked are, of course, all-too relevant, but posteriorly lacking the moral shock of something like last year's Cold Case Hammarskjöld.” – The Playlist Dec 31, 2020 Full Review Robin's Wish (2020) 89% C+ EDIT “Huge fans of the performer will likely shed tears at few parts throughout, but there's nothing especially unique or particularly thought-provoking about first-time director Tylor Norwood's filmmaking approach to make his documentary stand out.” – The Playlist Sep 16, 2020 Full Review Stray Dolls (2019) 70% B EDIT “Stray Dolls may not be destined to be the next American indie classic, but it's a powerful debut film with a stirring perspective on criminality and immigration.” – The Playlist Apr 13, 2020 Full Review Tigertail (2020) 83% B+ EDIT “"Tigertail" is an important and powerful immigration story for our troubled times.” – The Playlist Apr 12, 2020 Full Review Luxor (2020) 91% B EDIT “Treads some familiar territory, but its tender imperfection is incredibly effective.” – The Playlist Jan 30, 2020 Full Review Cuties (2020) 88% B EDIT “"Cuties" examines the consequences inherent to ignoring the impact of one's behavior outside the bubble of a screen-enamored social media existence.” – The Playlist Jan 26, 2020 Full Review Jumbo (2020) 76% C EDIT “Jumbo lacks the narrative substance, supernatural or otherwise, to function as a humanitarian genre slice.” – The Playlist Jan 25, 2020 Full Review This Is Not a Burial, It's a Resurrection (2019) 100% A- EDIT “This Is Not a Burial, It's a Resurrection reinvigorates one's faith in the artistic capacity of the medium through its pure intuition of form and mastery of intent.” – The Playlist Jan 25, 2020 Full Review Mickey and the Bear (2019) 100% B EDIT “Filmmaker Annabelle Attanasio's debut film is an honest and empathetic look at the toughest parts of someone's upbringing with incredible performances from its two stars.” – The Playlist Nov 14, 2019 Full Review Ms. Purple (2019) 86% A EDIT “It's a remarkable creative collaboration.” – The Playlist Sep 12, 2019 Full Review
