Perfect Days (2023) 96% A EDIT “Wenders has always had a natural talent for creating a sense of location and here he presents Japan’s capital city not as an exotic locale but as a place where real people live and work, just like the town you’re from.” – AwardsWatch Oct 29, 2023 Full Review Albert Brooks: Defending My Life (2023) 97% B+ EDIT “At 76, Brooks is still as sharp and funny as ever, yet there’s something different about him, an openness and willingness to reveal his true self. To finally, well, defend his life.” – AwardsWatch Oct 28, 2023 Full Review The Exorcist: Believer (2023) 22% C- EDIT “But if Green really is paying tribute to his heroes, I hope he takes a page from the end of Friedkin’s career. Perhaps then, [he] can make a film that will be remembered 50 years from now, instead of just a pale imitation of one.” – AwardsWatch Oct 4, 2023 Full Review Fast X (2023) 56% B- EDIT “[The Fast & Furious franchise] was built on fast cars going “vroom vroom,” explosions going “boom boom,” and fists going “pow pow,” which Fast X delivers with aplomb.” – AwardsWatch May 17, 2023 Full Review
