    The Disaster Artist
    It exists less as an adaptation than a love letter to the film, its large community of fans, and crazy dreamers everywhere.
    • 68 Metascore

    Small Town Crime
    The film’s success rides on the shoulders of Hawkes, and for the most part, it works.
    • 71 Metascore

    Gemini
    The faults of Gemini are in its screenplay, and Katz’s inability to sustain interesting character dynamics and maintain a consistent narrative. As a director, Gemini is easily Katz’s most confident outing to date.

    Song to Song
    Put simply, Song to Song lacks the soul of Malick’s best work.
    • 50 Metascore

    War on Everyone
    McDonagh seems to have more to say in this film, but it’s lost among the narrative and stylistic inconsistencies.
    • 70 Metascore

    Hunter Gatherer
    Hunter Gatherer is by no means perfect, but it leaves an impression that will linger for days to come, as images of Ashley and Jeremy continue to haunt the mind. Hunter Gatherer is that rare film that sneaks around the corner and smashes headlong into the viewer.

    A Monster Calls
    Mixing horror movie imagery with honest, heart-wrenching human truths, Bayona has created a dark, coming-of-age masterpiece.
    • 48 Metascore

    Phantasm: Ravager
    Phantasm: Ravager will disappoint the uninitiated, but those who are loyal will find enough to love.
    • 63 Metascore

    Split
    Shyamalan ingeniously places his leading man front and center, where McAvoy amuses and horrifies as the cliché plot points sometimes stumble.

    Don't Breathe
    There is an unpredictability to the film that is, at times, refreshing. This unpredictability turns into meandering, however, leading to narrative incoherence at many points.
