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

    Despite the aforementioned shortcomings, the qualities of The Fishing Place far outweigh them, making Tregenza’s film a fine work of art for the curious to explore.

    The problem with Brave New World falls squarely on the writing and the story.

    Love Hurts is a prime example of what happens when a film spreads itself too thin trying to juggle multiple genres—it drops all the balls. Ultimately, it’s a forgettable attempt at blending action and romance, proving once again that genre mashups rarely deliver a knockout.
  2. Like Father, Like Son never truly absorbs us in its characters, leaving a lot of food for thought, but little to say on any of it.

    It all works as a schlocky TV show. Mainly because the cast is on point, with a broad set of appealing characters generating their own stories well within the overarching silliness about the outside world.

    Companion takes a stab (literally) at sci-fi horror with an interesting idea, but making a robot the emotional center of the film is a misfire.
  3. Didn’t Die is a hopeful zombie narrative with more than a few heartwarming moments and just enough quirk to earn its laughs.
  4. The film is loaded with enough curious twists and turns to keep your eyes glued to the screen to see who lives, who dies, and if anybody is smart enough to close ‘the door’ on their way out.
  5. Stir all of those ingredients together, and you have a production fuelled by countless hours of maneuvering a gamepad and the real-life trials and tribulations of those on the human side of the video screen.
  6. Zombie Strain is the THC-heavy zombie jamboree your lungs have been waiting for.
  7. Two Women showcases the rampaging wit of expert writing with the jaw-dropping technique of expert directing.

    Detective Chinatown 1900 tries to be a high-energy action comedy but gets tangled in a web of subplots, leaving little room for the buddy-cop fun it teases.

    Eternal You is an excellent documentary because it engages you along the way, and you’re constantly wrestling with the issue long after the credits roll.
  8. The entirety of Give Me Pity! is more of an artistic treatise, a museum piece, a series of single-woman monologues, than a coherent, you know, film, and that’s clearly the intention. One can do a lot worse than take a look inside Kramer’s head, and this one makes her other explorations of humanity, Please Baby Please and Ladyworld, seem positively conventional. Quite the feat.
  9. Life As A B-Movie: Piero Vivarelli is an endless feast for hardcore Italian film fans, but it’s also a fantastic introduction for newcomers to the wonderful world of Italian genre filmmaking.

    Flight Risk is a fun yet simple and straightforward thriller where you have a general sense of where things are headed at first, and then Gibson pulls in a surprise or two or three.

    The film bottles beautifully the neo-noir lightning that flashes down under from time to time, with it’s thrilling presentation of a remote beach town that has gone seriously wrong. The rest of it is often mystifying, sometimes maybe just indecisive, but it soon makes you question what you see with some pretty witty plotting.

    The acting is sub-par, with Selena Gomez delivering the weakest performance. I don’t know Spanish, but even I can tell she struggles to sound like it’s her first language. As Emilia, Karla Sofía Gascón is stiff as a board and can’t sing. Zoe Saldaña is the only one putting an effort in, but even she can’t make horrible lyrics sound authentic.

    Sometimes, a movie’s impact transcends its story, delivering something we desperately need—a chance to reflect, connect, and simply breathe. Somewhere in Montana is one such film offering a heartfelt reminder that, despite our differences, people can win the day.

    It’s a given that Julia Garner can play fear, but Whannel barely taps into her skills.

    It is refreshing to see an adventure flick that is not burdened by adopting a cynical and dark aesthetic. See this film if you’re a history buff and lover of old-fashioned adventure flicks!
  10. The whole picture trades in the type of exotica that is fundamentally linked with the Arabian Nights stories, which melds amazingly well with the sci-fi tropes employed. The strategic use of location shots abroad, perhaps on a vacation, hides the fact that most of this was shot in Michigan, which is truly impressive.

    There isn’t a subtle bone in its body, and some of the acting choices are poor, but it’s pleasant enough.

    It features likable characters, and though it may not offend or make you laugh, it ultimately leaves you smiling. However, you can’t help but feel a sense of loss regarding the potential the film and its story had to be truly great.
  11. The Haunting Of Hollywood is effective when focusing on the characters and the horrifying and dramatic effects the past can have on people. The actors are compelling and deliver robust, humanized performances. For the most part, the directing brings forth the truth of the emotional baggage and trauma being dealt with. But when it goes into full horror mode, the style does not mesh and becomes jarring.
