Sweetheart (2019) 95% B- EDIT “The film itself could've used more of an edge. Because once you carve out the lead performance and the central theme, Sweetheart is just your run-of-the-mill-sole-survivor-stranded-on-a-deserted-island-fending-off-a-carnivorous-aquatic-monster movie.” – InSession Film Nov 5, 2024 Full Review Blow the Man Down (2019) 99% B EDIT “Bridget Savage Cole and Danielle Krudy have established that they're a directing team to watch out for.” – InSession Film Jul 17, 2024 Full Review The Third Wife (2018) 88% A EDIT “Mayfair’s first film is one well-constructed and daring examination of such injustices, and it’s absolutely worth checking out.” – InSession Film Jul 17, 2024 Full Review Retablo (2017) 100% B EDIT “Made with precision and tons of heart and featuring a luminous leading performance from Junior Bejar, Retablo is not to be missed.” – InSession Film Jul 17, 2024 Full Review Les misérables (2019) 88% B+ EDIT “It’s disconcerting how relevant Les Misérables is, isn’t it? Which one am I talking about? You pick.” – InSession Film Jul 17, 2024 Full Review Disclosure (2020) 98% A EDIT “Along with providing an academic context to the content, the contributors offer personal anecdotes.” – InSession Film Jul 17, 2024 Full Review Palm Springs (2020) 94% B+ EDIT “There's certainly a hidden gravity to the film, a low-key melancholy. But nonetheless Palm Spring is absolutely a comedy, albeit a dark one—ironically set in sunny paradise.” – InSession Film Jul 17, 2024 Full Review Waiting for Anya (2020) 41% D EDIT “Considering the target audience for this film is children, I’m somewhat willing to begrudgingly forgive its many missteps. Its many missteps. And missteps is wording it, shall we say, lightly.” – InSession Film Jul 17, 2024 Full Review The Beach House (2019) 81% B EDIT “Liberato is a performer who I can see becoming a perennial casting choice among genre auteurs.” – InSession Film Jul 17, 2024 Full Review The Rental (2020) 73% C- EDIT “If Dave Franco is indeed determined to keep directing—and if each picture manages to be slightly better than the last—then by his fifth or sixth film he’ll surely churn out something noteworthy...” – InSession Film Jul 17, 2024 Full Review Sputnik (2020) 88% B EDIT “Sputnik is just shy of two hours, and the first two-thirds are pretty spellbinding. The final act of the film forgoes its sense of intrigue in exchange for balls-to-the-wall, cat-and-mouse action that, while natural, doesn't quite land.” – InSession Film Jul 16, 2024 Full Review The Gallows Act II (2019) 0% D- EDIT “To put your viewers through an hour and a half of hackneyed horror tropes and technical misfires only to dole out a real dud of an ending is just straight-up rude...” – InSession Film Jul 16, 2024 Full Review Miss Juneteenth (2020) 99% EDIT “I’ve been a fan of Nicole Beharie since the first episode of Sleepy Hollow aired, and I’m so glad that a feature film finally gave her the opportunity to showcase her craft.” – InSession Film Jul 16, 2024 Full Review Freaky (2020) 84% EDIT “Slasher films need to emulate the slashers themselves and refuse to stay dead, and Freaky is a great case for why” – InSession Film Jul 16, 2024 Full Review Never Rarely Sometimes Always (2020) 99% EDIT “My kingdom for Eliza Hittman! Of all the movies I encountered in 2020, hers was the most…human.” – InSession Film Jul 16, 2024 Full Review His House (2020) 100% EDIT “I cannot wait to see what director Remi Weekes does next. His House blew me away with how it successfully reinvents the haunted house story to explore the horrors of being an immigrant in a xenophobic world.” – InSession Film Jul 16, 2024 Full Review Boys State (2020) 95% EDIT “In the end, Boys State becomes an indictment of the whole American election process.” – InSession Film Jul 16, 2024 Full Review The Forty-Year-Old Version (2020) 99% EDIT “Radha Blank’s film filled me with such strength.” – InSession Film Jul 16, 2024 Full Review The Invisible Man (2020) 92% A EDIT “Sublime without becoming overly sentimental, Invisible Life plays out like Douglas Sirk by way of Todd Haynes with a dash of Claire Denis.” – InSession Film Jul 16, 2024 Full Review I Carry You With Me (2020) 97% EDIT “Help, my soul has been shattered, and Heidi Ewing is the culprit! How she found a way to seamlessly weave her documentary background into this narrative feature film is simply astounding. My jaw is still on the floor.” – InSession Film Jul 16, 2024 Full Review She Dies Tomorrow (2020) 84% EDIT “This film is not for everyone. The responses have been quite divisive and understandably so. But those of us who get this movie, really get it. I have a feeling that I’ll be revisiting this movie regularly. ” – InSession Film Jul 16, 2024 Full Review Nomadland (2020) 93% EDIT “Cinema peaked when Frances McDormand went in that five-gallon bucket. ” – InSession Film Jul 16, 2024 Full Review Death Drop Gorgeous (2020) 85% B EDIT “The film trips over its own hem from time to time, but I was never not entertained, and that has to count for something. ” – InSession Film Jul 16, 2024 Full Review Apartment 413 (2019) C- EDIT “Apartment 413, unfortunately, leaves too many stones unturned.” – InSession Film Jul 16, 2024 Full Review The Old Ways (2021) 97% B+ EDIT “Brigitte Kali Canales pushes her character in so many unexpected directions on her journey to rediscovering her roots that the hard pivot the film takes in its final act actually works.” – InSession Film Jul 16, 2024 Full Review
