Atlantics (2019) 96% EDIT “Atlantics is a film that sticks with you, even if the journey to get there isn't always the best.” – Film Inquiry Oct 4, 2019 Full Review Bacurau (2019) 93% EDIT “Bacurau defies labels and expectations, and works because of it. Each frame shows off two filmmakers so self-assured that they weren't out to please anybody” – Film Inquiry Oct 4, 2019 Full Review Martin Eden (2019) 88% EDIT “Marcello has crafted a visual delight and Marinelli brilliantly brings a complex character with a captivating arc to life. Martin Eden serves a lot on its plate. Between so many themes, sometimes it can feel like too much at once, but never boring.” – Film Inquiry Oct 4, 2019 Full Review The Irishman (2019) 95% EDIT “At first, it feels as if [Scorsese] looked back to some of his greatest films and stole bits from each. In the third act, The Irishman then grows beyond anything he's made before and becomes something funnier, more emotional and reflective.” – Film Inquiry Sep 28, 2019 Full Review Uncut Gems (2019) 91% EDIT “Uncut Gems is everything you'd expect and hope for from the Safdie Brothers. It will get your heart rate going and replace your morning coffee.” – Film Inquiry Sep 24, 2019 Full Review The Truth (2019) 87% EDIT “With The Truth, Koreeda has crafted another subtle, yet poignant look at the family structure. It may never reach the highs of Shoplifters, but it's certainly worthy of a place in his catalog.” – Film Inquiry Sep 24, 2019 Full Review Honey Boy (2019) 94% EDIT “It's on-screen healing. You feel LaBeouf putting his soul into every word he wrote and every line he delivers.” – Film Inquiry Sep 20, 2019 Full Review How to Build a Girl (2019) 79% EDIT “Feldstein shines as bright as ever under the stage lights, but How To Build A Girl can't quite manage to rise above an average coming-of-age rock n roll fairy tale.” – Film Inquiry Sep 20, 2019 Full Review Jojo Rabbit (2019) 81% EDIT “Jojo Rabbit is a bold and audacious comedy that everyone besides Nazis can enjoy.” – Film Inquiry Sep 17, 2019 Full Review The Wild Goose Lake (2019) 91% EDIT “Daio has mastered the sizzle, but doesn't have the steak.” – Film Inquiry Sep 15, 2019 Full Review Human Capital (2019) 63% EDIT “While the stacked cast deliver exceptionally strong performances, the messy structure and sloppy screenplay can't bring a story with plenty of potential to life.” – Film Inquiry Sep 15, 2019 Full Review Waves (2019) 84% EDIT “Like a wave crashing over you and washing away the pain, the film breaks you down just to have you reemerge cleansed.” – Film Inquiry Sep 12, 2019 Full Review Monos (2019) 93% EDIT “It's an unflinching descent into chaos in the best way possible. Monos isn't simply a film you watch. It's one you feel with every sense.” – Film Inquiry Sep 9, 2019 Full Review Cold Case Hammarskjöld (2019) 83% EDIT “Cold Case Hammarskjöld blurs the line between journalism and conspiracy without ever clearly identifying itself as either, an unhealthy place to be considering the world we live in today.” – Film Inquiry Aug 19, 2019 Full Review Driven (2018) 63% EDIT “There's not a lot obviously wrong with Driven, but it just feels like a cast and crew that is just going through the motions. Such a wild story is told in a disappointingly vanilla manner.” – culturevulture.net Aug 12, 2019 Full Review Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark (2019) 78% EDIT “There are plenty of enjoyable moments, but it just never becomes as scary or fresh as you expect. Fun and creepy moments balance out painfully mediocre and cliche threads that bind the stories together.” – culturevulture.net Aug 9, 2019 Full Review The Peanut Butter Falcon (2019) 95% EDIT “It's an impossibly sweet meditation on what it means to be a hero and empower those around you. With a free-spirited adventure story and the most heartwarming performances of the year, The Peanut Butter Falcon soars.” – culturevulture.net Aug 7, 2019 Full Review Them That Follow (2019) 59% EDIT “Them That Follow captures the essence of snake-handling Pentecostals, but it just doesn't pack the emotional punch needed make the film worthwhile. What could have been feels lost, with a stacked cast wasted on a dreary mood-piece.” – culturevulture.net Aug 5, 2019 Full Review Luce (2019) 91% EDIT “Luce feels like a rarity. A thriller that succeeds with a relatively small scale. With brilliant performances, it poses questions to its characters and audience that make both feel uncomfortable and question our identities.” – Film Inquiry Aug 2, 2019 Full Review The Art of Self-Defense (2019) 83% EDIT “It won't be for everyone, but The Art Of Self-Defense is a dark, sharp and poignant take on the current gender roles and expectations in society.” – Film Inquiry Aug 1, 2019 Full Review The Great Hack (2019) 85% EDIT “While it's not the best made documentary of the year, The Great Hack is the most important documentary you'll watch all year.” – Film Inquiry Jul 25, 2019 Full Review The Farewell (2019) 97% EDIT “The Farewell finds a nearly impossible balance of being hilarious while being powerful enough to move any audience to tears. If you ever hear someone saying Hollywood can't make great original stories anymore, show them The Farewell.” – Film Inquiry Jul 19, 2019 Full Review Cold Blood (2019) 0% EDIT “An uninspired script and meaningless dialogue fill space while the viewer hopes for one of Henry's ice bullets to the head.” – Film Inquiry Jul 15, 2019 Full Review The Lion King (2019) 52% EDIT “The Lion King is a visual masterpiece that honors and builds on the original story, but can't quite find the same depth and emotion. If you were to introduce someone to The Lion King, the 1994 version remains the go-to.” – culturevulture.net Jul 12, 2019 Full Review Leto (2018) 78% EDIT “Perhaps, such a rebellious force as rock and roll in such a locked down society is interesting enough to make the film work, but the unique and fantasy elements that flourish throughout offer just enough to keep your attention and interest.” – Film Inquiry Jul 9, 2019 Full Review
