Hood Witch (2023) 62% EDIT “A lot of great ideas, but the storytelling needed some fine-tuning.” – Austin Chronicle Mar 17, 2024 Full Review Mogwai: If The Stars Had A Sound (2024) EDIT “... the documentary presents a beautiful picture of community surrounding [Mogwai] – and isn’t community what music is meant to create?” – Austin Chronicle Mar 17, 2024 Full Review Monkey Man (2024) 89% 3/5 EDIT “Dev Patel’s directorial debut Monkey Man is a gritty, nasty piece of work.” – Austin Chronicle Mar 17, 2024 Full Review Bob Trevino Likes It (2024) 95% EDIT “Laymon’s film about chosen family is an authentic one.” – Austin Chronicle Mar 17, 2024 Full Review Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom (2023) 33% 2/5 EDIT “Where Aquaman felt original, Lost Kingdom is stale, void of all originality.” – Austin Chronicle Mar 17, 2024 Full Review Everyone Will Burn (2021) 83% 2.5/5 EDIT “... maybe prophecies are sometimes set in place for a reason, and everyone in the little town of León should have burned for being so painfully predictable.” – Austin Chronicle Mar 17, 2024 Full Review Mean Girls (2024) 68% 1/5 EDIT “A shot-for-shot remake would have had more school spirit than this.” – Austin Chronicle Mar 17, 2024 Full Review Lisa Frankenstein (2024) 52% 3/5 EDIT “... a serviceable, fun goth romp.” – Austin Chronicle Mar 17, 2024 Full Review Problemista (2023) 85% EDIT “While Problemista might have some bumps, they are minor in the scheme of [Torres'] enormous creativity.” – Austin Chronicle Nov 17, 2023 Full Review I Used to be Funny (2023) 83% EDIT “Healing is not linear, and I Used to Be Funny adeptly displays that process, exploring Sam’s pain without making the experience of watching the film painful, and honestly refreshing exploration of a subject that’s so often brutal to witness.” – Austin Chronicle Nov 17, 2023 Full Review The Starling Girl (2023) 92% 3.5/5 EDIT “The Starling Girl’s thoughtfulness and lingering optimism toward a story that is predictably sorrowful is a necessary balance.” – Austin Chronicle Nov 17, 2023 Full Review To Catch a Killer (2023) 53% 2/5 EDIT “Szifron and his co-writer Jonathan Wakeham play it too safe, creating an aggressively stale procedural that doesn’t pack the gut punch it wants to deliver.” – Austin Chronicle Nov 17, 2023 Full Review Every Body (2023) 98% 3/5 EDIT “Every Body’s existence is what matters at the end of the day, and hopefully it encourages the creation of more films like it.” – Austin Chronicle Nov 17, 2023 Full Review Insidious: The Red Door (2023) 39% 2.5/5 EDIT “Similar to Wan’s The Conjuring universe, Insidious has long overstayed its welcome, reaching the point where its spark has quelled and there’s nothing interesting buried within these characters anymore. We have reached the end of the Further.” – Austin Chronicle Nov 17, 2023 Full Review Gran Turismo: Based on a True Story (2023) 65% 3/5 EDIT “Gran Turismo is perhaps a more basic film for Blomkamp, but a welcome reminder that his breakthrough first feature District 9 wasn’t a fluke.” – Austin Chronicle Nov 17, 2023 Full Review The Unknown Country (2022) 92% 3.5/5 EDIT “The Unknown Country is a naturalistic exploration of America that’s hopeful of human connection in the midst of a country that sometimes feels hostile.” – Austin Chronicle Nov 17, 2023 Full Review Golda (2023) 54% 2/5 EDIT “Golda isn’t a failure of skill, but one of vision.” – Austin Chronicle Nov 17, 2023 Full Review The Nun II (2023) 51% 2/5 EDIT “The Nun II might be a slight step up from the slog that was The Nun, but that’s a low bar to creep up from.” – Austin Chronicle Nov 17, 2023 Full Review Dicks: The Musical (2023) 68% 2.5/5 EDIT “Dicks: The Musical seems like a fun, boundary-pushing LGBTQIA+ romp, but there’s no juice.” – Austin Chronicle Nov 17, 2023 Full Review It Lives Inside (2023) 64% 3/5 EDIT “It Lives Inside at least isn’t just another mainstream horror weepy about grief – there’s a lot more that it’s playing around with...” – Austin Chronicle Nov 17, 2023 Full Review Your Lucky Day (2023) 90% 2.5/5 EDIT “The heart is in the right place for Your Lucky Day, but the execution is a little loose.” – Austin Chronicle Nov 17, 2023 Full Review Saltburn (2023) 72% 2.5/5 EDIT “Saltburn, despite all its lavish qualities and fun throwbacks, is an overstuffed and at times dated dive into society’s obsession with how the other half lives.” – Austin Chronicle Nov 17, 2023 Full Review Wish (2023) 48% 2/5 EDIT “Wish is a disappointment. What could have been a beautiful celebration of Disney’s past ends up being one big poorly designed Easter egg hunt. The heart is in the right place, but the pieces never add up to something more.” – Austin Chronicle Nov 17, 2023 Full Review Godland (2022) 92% 4.5/5 EDIT “[GODLAND is] absolutely breathtaking work – the camera helmed by Maria von Hausswolff captures the unassuming beauty of Iceland, but also does not hide its frigid nature, both terrifying and beautiful.” – Austin Chronicle Mar 2, 2023 Full Review Dos Estaciones (2022) 87% 3/5 EDIT “There’s a heaviness to [DOS ESTACIONES], but also there’s hope.” – Austin Chronicle Feb 21, 2023 Full Review
