    Afloat
    The film moves deliberately as we visit, in turn, the struggles of each character and then zoom back out to see the results impacting the family as a whole. The performances are flawless, each actor holding back their character’s inner turmoil tightly, to be revealed gradually as slight tell on the surface.

    Hanging by a Wire
    Hanging by a Wire emphasizes the self-reliance of the people of Battagram, who are accustomed to solving problems on their own. Naqvi brings us along to witness their strength and determination on display.

    Normal
    Normal is action-centric brain candy, with some pokes at timely social/political topics. It’s not that heavy, however, this film won’t change your life. It will allow you to relax into catharsis and put a smile on your face.

    Asian Persuasion
    If you’ll forgive the silly first and second acts and dig into the main dish of Asian Persuasion, your patience will be rewarded.

    Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire
    It is exciting… enough and is carried by the fun cast and design work.

    The Legend of Molly Johnson
    Despite struggling with a thematic focus, the film presents a woman who is well worth getting to know.

    Infinitum: Subject Unknown
    Infinitum: Subject Unknown works as a scary, anxious thrill ride.

    Red Right Hand
    Red Right Hand fully delivers in the action realm.

    Lansky
    Lanksy is a workman-like film with decent production values, but Rockaway is not Scorcese or Coppola. There are no great faults to find with it, except one: fans of the genre have literally seen every element of it before.

    What We Started
    What We Started achieves the directors stated goal of being an impressively comprehensive history of EDM. So much so that the film drags: unless one is a truly deep aficionado, 90 densely packed minutes of info about EDM is too much. It would work better with more music and less detail.

    Dolphin Island
    As family movies aimed at the tween demographic go, Dolphin Island is entertaining enough. The beautiful vistas could be a balm to anyone who’s thinking about the islands but can’t get there.

    Megalopolis
    This is a film that shouldn’t work. It should collapse under its own weight, but somehow, in the end, it all comes together after a fashion, and that’s the magic of Coppola.

    The Mountain
    The film runs long. Director Rick Alverson could have wrapped up this disturbing meditation in less time and still been as effective at painting his precisely beautiful dark image.

    The Departure
    The Departure is an entertaining film on the strength of the performances. If you enjoy “TMZ” style drama, you’ll need to watch until the end… despite the boys not behaving like men.

    The Almond and the Seahorse
    The Almond and the Seahorse is filled with sadness and pain, but there are moments of sunlight and happiness, which is ultimately the most anyone can ask for in this life.

    60 Dates in 6 Months
    Managing expectations is key to enjoying what, at its core, is a heartfelt journey of finding real connection in a fake world. Relax and enjoy how Maureen gets her groove back.

    Back to the Wharf
    For Western audiences, Back to the Wharf is an engaging glimpse of daily life at the intersection of Chinese family culture and government corruption.

    I Was a Simple Man
    Yogi brings us close to Masao’s personal tragedy while at the same time pulling back to see life and death at a cosmic level. The movie delves into the cycle of life and death enough so that that audience members can understand and accept the beauty of the process.

    You Burn Me
    One of the basic tenets of film-making is to show, not tell. You Burn Me wanders outside that guideline by making a show of telling, which is as interestingly meta as Piñeiro’s approach of juxtaposing the interaction of Sappho and Britomartis onto a modern-day tableau.

    Altered Reality
    The film is an intersection between Fatal Attraction and Back to the Future, and if that sounds intriguing, you’re in for a treat.

    Flathead
    The film is described as “docufiction,” meant to present an authentic sketch of working-class Australian life. While we are not always seeing the real events, we are getting the concentrated essence.

    The Coffee Table
    This film is not going to be for everyone, but for those who love horror served with a mean little edge of snarky humor, it’s quite a ride.

    Shooting the Mafia
    The mafia murder images are stomach turning, viewers take note. Letizia talks about her life at great length and some of it is redundant, but she is always charming and inspirational, living as a strong, independent woman in a crushing patriarchy.

    Actual People
    While Actual People is not going to be for everyone, it does preserve a moment in time from Gen Z culture that informs and enlightens.

    Hillbilly Elegy
    The 7 rating is for his movie. Vance himself, in his preachy, condescending book, gets it wrong.

    A Glitch in the Matrix
    A Glitch in the Matrix is timely and full of mystery and wonder, but lingering on descriptions of surreal subjective experience misses the point. This would be a much more interesting movie if it had more focus on the science of simulation theory.

    The characters are compelling, but I would like to have known more about how Peter came to this place in his life.

    The Day After Halloween
    For an ultra-low-budget Indie horror comedy, The Day After Halloween provides a good share of laughs and jolts.

    Don't Come Back from the Moon
    Bruce Thierry Cheung adapted this story from a novel by Dean Bakopoulos, brilliantly changing the setting from Michigan to the California desert. The film is light on dialog and heavy on brutally beautiful cinematography painting the mood.
