“Beyond another masterclass from Huppert, this not a film that will likely linger long in the memory, but it remains a polished, self-aware and highly diverting piece.” –

Assassination Nation (2018)

EDIT
“Levinson doesn't quite hit on the right tone in his attempts at juggling a lot of disparate styles and ideas... Still, this remains a frequently sharp and diverting piece of work. Worth a look.” –

Slack Bay (2016)

EDIT
“While the trajectory of Dumont's career remains interesting in how stark the shift in his style has become, this baffling oddity marks something of an embarrassing low-point.” –

Night People (2015)

EDIT
“Despite [its] flaws it is pleasing to see a film that neither looks nor sounds like any other Irish film historically or contemporaneously being made.” –

Personal Shopper (2016)
81%
EDIT
“Yet, despite these flaws, the film retains a stubborn individuality that is hard to resist and an atmosphere that is hard to forget. As an examination of grief it is haunting and imaginative.” –

EDIT
“This is a deceptively complex, uproariously misanthropic, unclassifiable original, powered by one of the best-ever performances of a true on-screen great.” –

The Neon Demon (2016)

The Childhood of a Leader (2015)
90%
EDIT
“Corbet draws an incredible performance out of young debutant Tom Sweet. This is not a one-dimensional or one-note depiction of a misbehaving child but rather a tremendously nuanced turn.” –

Nocturnal Animals (2016)
74%
EDIT
“[Nocturnal Animals] lacks the substance it seems to strive for, never really justifies its structure to any meaningful degree and, ultimately, doesn't match the sum of its parts.” –
