Good-looking but dimwitted sci-fi.
Posted Dec 13, 2018

A limited but worthwhile look at the master animator's late career.
Posted Dec 13, 2018

A splatterpunk action comedy drenched in gleefully dark Russian humor.

4
Girls with Balls (2018)
Girls With Balls scores some points for its Z-movie conceits but could have benefited from stronger writing and direction.

5
The Mule (2018)
6
Mary Poppins Returns (2018)
Its old-fashioned, honest sentimentality plasters a smile across your face and plants a tear in your eye, often simultaneously.

7
The Wedding (2018)
The Wedding is rooted in potentially rich ingredients, but Abbas shoots it in such a flat, minor-key register that most of the dramatic energy dissipates.

Aquaman (2018)

Frankenstein's Army (2013)
13
Bumblebee (2018)
It's an effective reimagining that also bears a knowing resemblance to classic youth-oriented films from Bumblebee executive producer Steven Spielberg.

The Hungry Lion (Ueta raion) (2017)
Ogata exposes not just the victim, but all of those who presume to judge her and attempt to disassociate themselves from their own unseemly actions.
Posted Dec 7, 2018
15
I'm Leaving Now (Ya me voy) (2018)
It's as if Cordero and Croda are trying to goose the drama rather than unearth it, never entirely trusting that Felipe's life is interesting enough as is.
Posted Dec 7, 2018
16
In Safe Hands (Pupille) (2018)
Intelligently observed and backed by a strong cast...

Bargain basement treatment of Hollywood royalty.
Posted Dec 7, 2018

Tough viewing, but required.
Posted Dec 7, 2018

DRUG$ (2018)

Posted Dec 7, 2018
21
The Marriage (2017)
Sensitive relationship pic takes a while getting to the point.
Posted Dec 7, 2018

23
All the Devil's Men (2018)
Such an utterly routine, formulaic and forgettable example of its genre that watching it becomes an exercise in endurance.
Posted Dec 7, 2018
24
Hospitality (2018)
The derivative screenplay lacking wit and the filmmaking devoid of arresting style, Hospitality never gather narrative momentum despite its frequent plot developments.
Posted Dec 6, 2018
25
Asher (2018)
Nothing in the proceedings rings remotely true unless you've been weaned on a steady diet of soulful hit men movies.
Posted Dec 6, 2018
26
The Rainbow Experiment (2018)
While its quirky storytelling style draws viewers in, many will tire of the subplots long before it reaches the two-hour mark.
Posted Dec 6, 2018
27
Andy Irons: Kissed By God (2018)
Fans will appreciate the elegy, but the film doesn't have as much crossover potential as it might have.
Posted Dec 6, 2018
28
Spitak (2018)
The story's resolution is formulaic, but deeply enough felt that few will resent the film's manipulations.
Posted Dec 6, 2018
29
Buddy (2018)
A tender tribute to tail-wagging treasures.
Posted Dec 6, 2018
30
Dumplin' (2018)
Dumplin' clings timidly to its YA roots, which are firmly on the unsophisticated side of the spectrum.
Posted Dec 6, 2018
31
Los Reyes (2018)
Low on incidents but high on atmosphere and unassuming charm.
Posted Dec 5, 2018
32
Back Roads (2018)
33
Don't Be a Dick About It (2018)
An affable, intimate and unassuming little picture...
Posted Dec 5, 2018
34
Mortal Engines (2018)
Certainly lavish and expensive looking but never thoroughly locks in to capture the imagination or sweep you off to a new world where you particularly want to spend time.
Posted Dec 5, 2018
35
Reason (2018)
36
Wanted - Matloubin (2019)
None of these scenes look for humor beyond the fact that it's old people doing these things; occasionally, a plan is interrupted by the need to urinate.
Posted Dec 4, 2018
37
Hamada (2018)
There have been dozens of refugee-camp documentaries down the decades, but never anything quite like Eloy Dominguez Seren's disarmingly breezy Hamada.
Posted Dec 4, 2018
38
Swimming with Men (2018)
Aiming for charm but instead coming across as hopelessly forced, Swimming with Men barely manages to stay afloat.
Posted Dec 4, 2018

An engrossing if familiar triumph-over-adversity story.
Posted Dec 3, 2018
40
My Perfect World (2018)
A compelling true crime story.
Posted Dec 3, 2018
41
DriverX (2018)
Proves unsatisfying both as drama and satire.
Posted Dec 3, 2018
42
Cold Sweat (Araghe Sard) (2018)
A piercing drama of inequality.
Posted Dec 3, 2018
43
Scarface (1983)
Other than an unflinching, intense and extraordinary performance from Al Pacino as the Cuban-born gangster Tony Montana, this gruesome offering has little to recommend.
Posted Dec 2, 2018
44
Grace (2018)
45
The Eighth Commissioner (2018)
The story is light and enjoyable and its setting is a sparkling, timeless paradise.
Posted Dec 2, 2018
46
Making The Five Heartbeats (2018)
It too often comes across as a vanity project, and an overextended one at that.
Posted Nov 30, 2018
47
It's only Tom Wilkinson's typically expert performance that saves Dead in a Week (Or Your Money Back) from having to live up to its subtitled bargain with moviegoers.
Posted Nov 30, 2018
48
The Hidden City (2018)
Has the rare and impressive virtue of slightly rearranging our perspective as we emerge afterwards, blinking.
Posted Nov 29, 2018

Bathtubs Over Broadway (2018)
An unexpectedly moving ode to an ignored creative world.
Posted Nov 29, 2018
