Atlantics (2019) 96% EDIT “It wreaks havoc with the interlocking hierarchy of class, race, and gender that most of these other films assume, leaving in its wake a startling study of power in the raw.” – The Nation Nov 20, 2019 Full Review Us (2019) 93% EDIT “An extraordinary turn by Nyong'o.” – The Nation Mar 29, 2019 Full Review The Favourite (2018) 93% EDIT “Strangely enough, it may be through its beasts that The Favourite makes the strongest case that women are, in fact, humans.” – The New York Review of Books Dec 14, 2018 Full Review Blade Runner 2049 (2017) 88% EDIT “In the end, Villeneuve's allusion to Nabokov confesses the derivative status of his sequel...” – The New York Review of Books Nov 14, 2018 Full Review Sorry to Bother You (2018) 93% EDIT “Indeed, smuggled inside Riley's rollicking mashup of surrealism and sci-fi is a cutting critique of race and class.” – The New York Review of Books Jul 24, 2018 Full Review Black Panther (2018) 96% EDIT “Rather than reflecting or distorting a world, this technology builds a world and then lets it fall away. I cannot think of a better metaphor than black sand for a diaspora, a word that comes from a "scattering" yet has come to signify unity and solidarity” – The New York Review of Books Feb 22, 2018 Full Review
