4/5
EDIT
“The Student is a subtler take on the opium of the masses than Four Lions, which offers a fresh perspective on the coming-of-age genre.” –

Our Love Story (2016)
3/5
EDIT
“For a debut feature, Our Love Story is a remarkably mature depiction of a forbidden love affair...Sadly, however, it often neglects to uphold consistency within its coming-out through-line.” –

Aquarius (2016)

3/5
EDIT
“Aquarius is a middling effort let down by some unresolved metaphors, but redeemed by Sônia Braga's verve.” –

Political Animals (2016)
83%
2/5
EDIT
“The documentary doesn't feel much more than a flat retelling of the history of same-sex marriage and would dry up without its four central personalities.” –

2/5
EDIT
“Innovative aspect ratios and artful photography make I Am Not Madame Bovary a delight to watch, but it just doesn't leave enough to chew on.” –

Bitch (2017)
66%
2/5
EDIT
“Bitch is an attempt to make a feminist statement that is just as punchy and provocative as its title. However, the central gimmick tires about thirty minutes into the feature...” –

Chasing Coral (2017)
100%
4/5
EDIT
“Best of all is the time-lapse imagery of the rapid death of these vast ecosystems. The discoveries made are astonishing; this is a call to action that delivers hyperbole after hyperbole. It must be seen to be believed.” –

Walking Out (2017)
92%
3/5
EDIT
“Smith and Smith demand nuanced performances from the central pair which results in a credible story but nothing that hasn't been done before.” –

Beatriz at Dinner (2017)
75%
4/5
EDIT
“Miguel Arteta and Mike White have nailed this one. Without a doubt, Beatriz at Dinner will become a talking point around dinner tables worldwide. If there was ever a film we need to see, it is this. Thank you Sundance.” –

Godspeed (2016)
2/5
EDIT
“This cat-and-mouse thriller lacks thrills, its antagonists disappoint and one scene is simply insulting. Chung is overambitious in positioning his film between so many genres: a weak compromise, it's a bit all over the place...Rating: wtf?” –

Hideout in the Sun (1960)
4/5
EDIT
“A work of minimalist beauty, a timely and faithful study of Camus's classic that has relevance to issues of today. The experimental style might not be for some but it certainly offers a lot to chew on.” –

Newton (2017)

3/5
EDIT
“Most of the film is entertaining enough, but it is a shame that some of it is sacrificed for some boring sentimental bits.” –

Kaleidoscope (2016)
67%
4/5
EDIT
“A gripping investigation into how the impressions left by early childhood resurface late on in life, Kaleidoscope is just as thought-provoking as it is unsettling.” –

4/5
EDIT
“A deeply respectful, yet upsettingly incendiary offering, Sami Blood is sure to make an impact when it lands. A very promising debut.” –

Song to Song (2017)
43%
3/5
EDIT
“Song to Song is slightly disappointing. Rooney Mara's voiceover only offers empty platitudes and Ryan Gosling's romantic hero is sweet and endearing but ultimately quite boring.” –

4/5
EDIT
“Serra's representation of a king as prisoner within his own body neatly subverts the tropes of historical dramas about royalty.” –
