Galveston (2018) 73% EDIT “[A]n uneven but arrestingly beautiful drama.” – L.A. Weekly Dec 26, 2018 Full Review Down a Dark Hall (2018) 46% EDIT “Ultimately, Down a Dark Hall falls victim to familiar teen horror tropes: a brooding lead with a heart of gold, predictable jump scares, wincingly bad romantic tension, and obvious villains.” – Village Voice Aug 15, 2018 Full Review Five Seasons: The Gardens of Piet Oudolf (2017) 81% EDIT “Although it clocks in at just under 75 minutes, Piper's film is unrushed and chock-full of spark and life, much like the gardens Piper spotlights.” – Village Voice Jun 13, 2018 Full Review The Valley (2017) 36% EDIT “Kariat has touched upon important themes - the immigrant experience, ageism in tech, the performance of traditional family roles, and the toll of depression - but the way she has combined them too often feels slapdash.” – Village Voice Jun 6, 2018 Full Review Carter & June (2017) 0% EDIT “Ultimately, this wannabe dark comedy swindles viewers out of a thrilling caper.” – Village Voice May 16, 2018 Full Review Rogers Park (2017) 100% EDIT “Writer Carlos Treviño deftly crafts a compelling relationship drama out of what might have seemed like banal catastrophes.” – Village Voice Apr 26, 2018 Full Review Modern Life Is Rubbish (2017) 33% EDIT “For those who delight in candy-coated nostalgia, writer Philip Gawthorne's familiar, clich-heavy script offers a twee jaunt down memory lane. For everyone else, even a killer Britpop soundtrack...can't save the film from overtrodden territory.” – Village Voice Apr 25, 2018 Full Review Lives Well Lived (2017) 100% EDIT “Sky Bergman set out to collect wit, wisdom and life stories from people often called "elderly" or even "the old old" -- between the ages of 75 and 100. She presents her subjects as ordinary folk, but most are extraordinary in their own ways.” – Village Voice Apr 18, 2018 Full Review Wanderland (2017) EDIT “There's no rhyme or reason to Alex's journey, which makes the whole of it equally disarming and daffy.” – Village Voice Apr 18, 2018 Full Review Little Pink House (2017) 77% EDIT “Like Erin Brockovich for eminent domain, Little Pink House does well to explain the thorny legal issue at its center without getting bogged down in minutiae.” – Village Voice Apr 17, 2018 Full Review Birthmarked (2018) 12% EDIT “Birthmarked proves both heartfelt and frustrating, perhaps a little like parenthood itself.” – Village Voice Apr 17, 2018 Full Review Nana (2016) 60% EDIT “With Nana, Dykman aims to carry the torch for her grandmother and other survivors by making the horror of millions profoundly personal.” – Village Voice Apr 11, 2018 Full Review Shelter (2017) 45% EDIT “Such a grim story could collapse with less capable performers, but Riskin and Farahani deftly shoulder the burden as the haunted, paranoid spy and her disconsolate yet glamorous charge at the heart of this international scandal.” – Village Voice Apr 5, 2018 Full Review Dead on Arrival (2017) EDIT “Writer-director Stephen C. Sepher's thriller is so convoluted that it's hard to care about its trail of dead bodies.” – Village Voice Mar 21, 2018 Full Review Dear Dictator (2017) 17% EDIT “Although the filmmakers name-check and appear to draw inspiration from Mean Girls, they've missed the mark on truly biting satire, leaving Dear Dictator toothless and silly.” – Village Voice Mar 14, 2018 Full Review The Vanishing of Sidney Hall (2017) 12% EDIT “Christensen favors dreamy shots of dusty libraries and desert horizons that, while beautiful, don't make up for the contrived plot driving Sidney toward his destiny.” – Village Voice Feb 28, 2018 Full Review The Female Brain (2017) 37% EDIT “Its creators' hearts may be in the right place, but that's not enough to save The Female Brain from overthinking it.” – Village Voice Feb 8, 2018 Full Review Becks (2017) 95% EDIT “With Becks, directors Elizabeth Rohrbaugh and Daniel Powell have crafted an understated musical that really works, thanks to Alyssa Robbins's heartfelt music and standout performances from the cast.” – Village Voice Feb 8, 2018 Full Review Shot in the Dark (2017) EDIT “It's a vital, intimate snapshot of a handful of people who have been touched by gun and gang violence.” – Village Voice Jan 26, 2018 Full Review The Clapper (2017) 20% EDIT “It's an interesting premise, but The Clapper doesn't live up to its namesake.” – Village Voice Jan 25, 2018 Full Review Dim the Fluorescents (2017) 93% EDIT “Skwarna and Armstrong's quirky chemistry keeps the lights on in this overlong debut.” – Village Voice Jan 16, 2018 Full Review Saturday Church (2017) 93% EDIT “A sensitive look at a young man's exploration of his identity and sexuality.” – Village Voice Jan 16, 2018 Full Review Kepler's Dream (2016) 56% EDIT “Kepler's Dream is a study in family dynamics that's sweet without being too saccharine.” – Village Voice Nov 29, 2017 Full Review Bill Nye: Science Guy (2017) 100% EDIT “Directors David Alvarado and Jason Sussberg have tapped into something deeper than vanilla hagiography.” – L.A. Weekly Nov 9, 2017 Full Review Most Beautiful Island (2017) 94% EDIT “At a lean eighty minutes, Most Beautiful Island has little extraneous material in it, and Asensio spins a suspenseful web that delivers a truly shocking - and strangely satisfying - revelation.” – Village Voice Nov 1, 2017 Full Review
