    Seoul Searching
    The episodic narrative of Seoul Searching can be too long and unfocused, but its stubbornness comes from filmmaking that is overflowing with self-pride.

    King Jack
    Lacking personality or insight, King Jack is a ho-hum tale of young aggression—been there, bruised that.

    Of Men and War
    Not the type of Iraq soldier film one may expect. It does present intricate experiences of PTSD, but does so with distance.

    Ktown Cowboys
    Park coats the big heart he has for these people with warm LA lens flares, and finds energy from sharp cuts and wall-to-wall music. It’s the performances that prove to be spotty, with flat line-readings all around and displays of emotions that struggle to reach from the script to the audience.

    Pee-wee's Big Holiday
    As comedy, the events are more often charming than funny; even when some sequences fall flat, they show a dedication to the surrealism that’s charismatic.

    A Fistful of Fingers
    Start to finish, the movie is delightfully dorky, irreverent and scrappy, the exact kind of project a young filmmaker would make if they just wanted to make fellow nerds laugh and were pretty good at doing so.
