    Calle Málaga
    The world of Calle Málaga is small. It takes place on a simple street in a simple town where everyone knows everyone else. Everyone is cordial and competitive at the same time, as the film focuses on the place we call home and how leaving can be a bitter pill to take. In the end, this family drama hits you in the feels like a warm cup of cocoa before turning in for the night.
  2. Mr. K
    Writer/director Schwab has crafted a piece that is beautiful, austere, and terrifying.
  3. Fire Will Come
    Like the inferno it depicts, Laxe’s film casts an entrancing spell.
  4. Puccini for Beginners
    Kirk and Mol are convincing, easily inhabiting their respective roles.
  5. You Will Die At Twenty
    While it could have easily been a dark comedy, and almost is, instead, it’s perfectly sincere.
  6. Blindfire
    Blindfire is a tight thriller, effectively balancing the intense action with truly affecting dramatic moments.
  7. Detective Knight: Redemption
    Detective Knight: Independence is a must-see for fans of Bruce Willis. Those who are into the action genre as well should check it out because of the added character depth and cast.
  8. Noi the Albino
    Performances are spot-on from the entire cast; each memorable character is finely detailed and full of eccentricities that are beautifully underplayed.
  9. Children of the Sea
    By simply witnessing the grandeur of the sea, by allowing us to glimpse that symbiosis between ocean and universe, the film ends up resonating powerfully, a feast that will stimulate both the eye and the cerebral cortex.
  10. True History of the Kelly Gang
    As you follow Ned into adulthood and bear witness to his many exploits—bare-knuckle brawling, throwing together a gang of brutes who wear pretty dresses, walking into a gunfight with a homemade suit of bulletproof armor, and more—you figure out quickly that the movie’s biggest strength is its desire to disgust and disorient.
  11. Club Zero
    Quirky and uncomfortable but hard to turn away from, Club Zero is reminiscent of Yorgos Lanthimos’s The Lobster, especially because it has a tone of below-average existence masked in contemporary and forward-thinking superficialities.

    Black Book
    Carice van Houten as Rachel/Ellis is as captivating as any screen siren working today.
  13. Buffalo '66
    Gallo transcends the medium in a manner I only associate with David Lynch. It's brilliantly spooky.
  14. Must Read After My Death
    Watching the American nightmare of Must Read After My Death play out, it's impossible not to be both horrified and powerfully moved. Impossible as well not to feel profound admiration for the artfulness with which Dews has pieced these archival cries for help into a singular creation anyone who appreciates first rate filmmaking absolutely must see.
  15. The Phantom of the Opera
    The much-publicized decision to go "younger and sexier" with the casting--a move that turns out to pay off handsomely, enhancing and enriching the material.

    Hard Goodbyes: My Father
    Part of what makes the film engaging is the carefully nuanced performances Panayotopoulou gets from her actors. In particular, Giorgos Karayannis.

    Summertime
    Ultimately the success of Summertime comes from director Estrada and his crew, who put the film together with a small semblance of a story. They masterfully piece each poem and poet together like a jigsaw puzzle.
  18. The Hunt for Planet B
    The Hunt for Planet B delivers a captivating viewing experience, showing the sometimes-thin line between science fiction and the true scientific future.
  19. The Standoff at Sparrow Creek
    There is no emotional manipulation, and there are no ideological hand-outs. You almost feel like you’re watching the events unfold through a keyhole, which gives every hushed exchange and passive-aggressive examination a voyeuristic thrill.

    Eating Up Easter
    Eating Up Easter is another documentary exploring the tension a society faces when confronted with potentially being left behind in a rapidly changing world. Documentaries such as this, always paint progress as the antagonist, and rightfully so. The struggle to hold onto one’s past is an underdog fight and, at times, an unwinnable one.

    Jesus Revolution
    Jesus Revolution is one of my favorite faith-based Christian movies, of which I’ve seen more than my fair share. I associate three things with faith-based films: bad acting, an outrageous, overly positive message, and a shoe-horned sermon. Thankfully, this film avoids all three elements.
  22. Postcards from the Edge
    Their drugs are Cigarettes, Television, and Hostess Cup Cakes. In the end, if I am ever reincarnated and I have my choice between hating my White Trash Mom or hating my movie star Mom. I'm picking the movie star Mom every time.

    Rust Creek
    As Sawyer, Hermione Corfield is probably the most famous of the film’s cast. She is the film’s solid foundation and carries it to the finale. She’s believable, strong, and sympathetic.
  24. Circus of Books
    This extreme level of intimacy also becomes the film’s main drawback, however, as Mason is so close to her subjects that there’s no way she can possibly remain impartial.

    Murderball
    Murderball isn't a documentary played in the key of those Olympics stories that inspire you with sugary drivel, although it is ultimately inspiring.
  26. Mister Roberts
    Mister Roberts is a movie dedicated to anyone with a boring dead end job who wants to be a hero and has to decide whether to live honorably anyway.

    The Comedians of Comedy
    A fun, structured ride.

    Black Outside
    I dare you to watch Black Outside and not think about wanting to do this journey for yourself. There’s something irresistible about this film, and indeed, there is something within you that must be released, and a 2,600-mile hike might be what the doctor ordered.
  29. Stowaway
    Rather unexpectedly, the result is gripping and immersive, bolstered by a committed cast and some remarkable visuals.

    Appaloosa
    The romantic subplot dovetails wonderfully with Harris' tribute to the genre's golden age. The moral quest of taming the West always thrived if a lady could be won in tandem.
