Master Gardener (2022) 71% EDIT “Paul Schrader’s portrait of an ex–white supremacist gang member is an unlikely feat of optimism.” – The New Republic May 24, 2023 Full Review Chris Rock: Selective Outrage (2023) 46% EDIT “Both more and less than comedy, funny but also the occasion for a lot of clapter from Rock’s fans. Rock delivered on all the expectations swirling through social media over the past year, but it’s also OK if we never hear about that slap again.” – The Nation Mar 16, 2023 Full Review Baadasssss! (2003) 91% 2/4 EDIT “Mario's done a good job of depicting Melvin's accomplishments. Yet it seems to me that he's still selling his father's legacy short.” – Chicago Reader Jun 11, 2004 Full Review Catch Me if You Can (2002) 96% 3/4 EDIT “Catch Me if You Can is one of those deceptively slight offerings that manages to reveal more about its maker than the intended masterpieces often do.” – Chicago Reader Jan 10, 2003 Full Review
