Waiting for the Barbarians (2019) |
Guerra has tweaked the novel's Beckettian coda, and the film's final shot provides a full stop that is, in 2019, appropriately apocalyptic. The barbarians are us, and the wait is over. - Guardian

Hearts and Bones (2019) |
The untangling of each man's past lets the film explore ideas about trust and blinkered assumptions, and Lawrence proves himself a very able director of actors. - Hollywood Reporter

Iron Fists and Kung Fu Kicks (2019) |
Before the fadeout it serves as an illuminating, passionately argued tribute to the beauty of martial-arts cinema and its continuing evolution. - Hollywood Reporter

Sequin in a Blue Room (2019) |
Sequin in a Blue Room feels very much of the moment, but it's upholstered by an impressive command of good old-fashioned craft. - Hollywood Reporter

Danger Close: The Battle of Long Tan (2019) |
Orchestrated on an impressive scale, the movie nonetheless feels both familiar and diffuse, with thinly sketched variations on a bronzed theme rather than characters... - Hollywood Reporter

Mystify: Michael Hutchence (2019) |
It should prove essential viewing for the subject's fans: a tender portrait of the man's highs and lows that sheds new light on the broken years that directly preceded his suicide at 37. - Hollywood Reporter

Playmobil: The Movie (2019) |

The Final Quarter (2019) |
The filmmaker's sympathies are not in doubt, though his decision to avoid talking heads - relying instead on contemporaneous television coverage - makes his case stronger by giving all the fulminators enough rope to hang themselves. - Hollywood Reporter

Palm Beach (2019) |
What makes the whole thing work is Ward's facility with performers, and the wrinkles that are threaded into plot points we've seen a million times before. - Hollywood Reporter

The House With a Clock in Its Walls (2018) |
It largely succeeds, buoyed by Black's typical exuberance, Blanchett's typical slyness and a richly evocative rendering of a Rockwellian suburb sprinkled with goofer dust. - Hollywood Reporter

Jirga (2018) |
The filmmaking could most charitably be described as artless, with a medley of shaky thousand-pixel close-ups providing a sense of detail that doesn't quite extend to the script. - Hollywood Reporter

Eurotrump (2017) |
The rise of populism in the United States shadows everything, and EuroTrump makes the case that the story of the global far-right's current moment begins in the Netherlands. - Hollywood Reporter

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society (2018) |
Buoyed by a reliably appealing star turn from James, this handsome tearjerker mostly sidesteps the tweeness of its title to become, somehow, both an old-fashioned romance and a detective story trumpeting gender equality. - Hollywood Reporter

Brother's Nest (2018) |
This is a comedy that's blacker than pitch, and tethered enough to unexaggerated human behavior that it can really commit to the consequences of its characters' colossal stupidity. - Hollywood Reporter

The Space Between (2017) |
This rather earnest, Rilke-quoting drama boasts lovely locations but is unhurried to a fault, capturing the lead character's ennui a little too punctiliously. - Hollywood Reporter

Blade of the Immortal (2017) |
The director's 100th feature, Blade of the Immortal shows Miike to have lost none of the madcap energy and wit that characterize his best work. And while this is not that, it's still got more style to burn than almost any recent Hollywood actioner. - Hollywood Reporter
