The Wonder (2022) 85% EDIT “Pugh’s performance as Lib is the magnetic force at the heart of the film’s success. She reveals Lib’s complexities in a slow but powerful burn, unfurling humour and warmth from beneath the sceptical and world-weary exterior of her character. ” – Flicks (AU, NZ, UK) Nov 7, 2022 Full Review The Good Boss (2021) 92% EDIT “The latest in Bardem’s catalogue of bad guys so convincing, you almost forget who you should be rooting for.” – Flicks (AU, NZ, UK) Oct 24, 2022 Full Review Millie Lies Low (2021) 86% EDIT “Ana Scotney embodies the taut desperation at the heart of this film with an exhilarating performance as Millie, leaning into the cringe comedy that underpins the most excruciating moments of action.” – Flicks (AU, NZ, UK) Oct 3, 2022 Full Review Muru (2022) 92% EDIT “Muru is a masterclass in storytelling, proving that sometimes fiction can get us closer to truth than any documentary.” – Flicks (AU, NZ, UK) Oct 3, 2022 Full Review Where the Crawdads Sing (2022) 34% EDIT “More effective as a glossy cottagecore fantasy befitting the Taylor Swift track written for the credits than it is as a tense tale of marshland morality.” – Flicks (AU, NZ, UK) Jul 20, 2022 Full Review Whina (2022) 100% EDIT “Whina is a triumph. A soaring, heartful telling of the life of Dame Whina Cooper, Te Whāea-o-te-Motu, a leader and activist who fought ceaselessly for Māori and their whenua.” – Flicks (AU, NZ, UK) Jun 21, 2022 Full Review Nude Tuesday (2022) 87% EDIT “It’s silly, raucous and sometimes surprisingly moving. All in all, it makes a thoroughly fun case for bold and bananas Aotearoa filmmaking.” – Flicks (AU, NZ, UK) Jun 14, 2022 Full Review Mothers of the Revolution (2021) 100% EDIT “If you watched Adam McKay's bleak climate change parable Don't Look Up and came out the other side despairing about the state of it all, then this is the film you need in your life to remind you how important a bit of hope and determination can be.” – Flicks (AU, NZ, UK) Jan 25, 2022 Full Review
