    The Retirement Plan
    This is an action film, meaning that’s where the fun lies. Cage gets to show off his special skills with unique bits of punctuation after each kill. There are plenty of chases, gun combat, and hand-to-hand fighting. The only disappointment you’ll feel is that everything is done for comedic effect. This is much lighter in tone than you probably want it to be.
  2. Remembering Every Night
    Remembering Every Night is an ethereal experience that shouldn’t be missed. It reminds viewers that cinema is a visual art first and foremost and that the composition of the frame and movements within it often speak much louder than words ever can.

    The Beast
    The Beast is a bold, creative, and heady dystopian film that clocks in way too long at 145 minutes.
  4. A Haunting in Venice
    A Haunting in Venice marks the best, most succinct, and humorous adaptation of an Agatha Christie story by Kenneth Branagh yet.
  5. Choose Love
    It is a charming affair featuring a stellar cast with believable chemistry. Plus, there is enjoyment in getting to decide Cami’s fate and seeing where it takes you. I am going to rewatch this and choose another path.
  6. Dream Scenario
    Borgli’s feature is just another somewhat edgy movie that has nothing to say.

    The Critic
    This period drama may be a bit slow during some scenes, but the devious dark plot is such a pleasant surprise the payoff is worth it. On top of that, The Critic has a beautiful score, excellent set design, and great cinematography.
  8. Little Jar
    López and his band of dedicated filmmakers have created a movie with offbeat comedy and complex human drama. It is a thoughtful look at what it means to be really alone.
  9. Shadow Island
    Trying to do too much in the span of ninety minutes is an insurmountable impediment to the success of Shadow Island. Still, even so, there’s a period of 30 minutes in the film that really gels together.

    Jawan
    Remember when action films were fun? Get yourself into the theaters, exercise those subtitle muscles, and enjoy an intense and wild ride with Jawan.

    Boy Kills World
    Boy Kills World is a two-hour roller coaster. You’ll leave exhausted and beaten, and yet feeling like maybe you too can defeat the fascist dictators in your life.
  12. Joyce Carol Oates: A Body in the Service of Mind
    If you’re in the mood for a biographical film, Joyce Carol Oates: A Body in Service of the Mind is a splendid example. Seek it out, wherever it may be playing or streaming.

    Amerikatsi
    In Amerikatsi, Michael Goorjian channels his inner Roberto Begnini and even Charlie Chaplin to bring humor and levity to a solemn subject. But the best part is he shines a light on the Armenian people and their resurgence to re-establish their culture after great tragedy.
  14. A Life on the Farm
    The video footage is demented, hysterically funny, and supremely dark. In presenting Carson’s antics and dissecting his style as a presenter, A Life on the Farm provides a horror-tinged giggle fest.
  15. The Equalizer 3
    This is a great hour and 49 minutes of action film.
  16. Welcome to Redville
    The story remains rooted in the outlaw couple on the run subgenre of crime film, but it then metamorphoses into an entirely different type of category. It has humor, but it is not a comedy, as the delivery and intent is coming from somewhere else.

    The Pigeon People
    Documentarian Patrick Gramm manages to weave a fascinating tale.

    Bottoms
    Bottoms falls right in my wheelhouse of comedy. Be offensive and don’t care about offending anyone. Bottoms goes after everyone without apology. It’s what comedy used to be; we’ve strayed so far off the path in the last ten years. There’s no place to play it safe in comedy. We need to return to this form of comedy oh so badly.
  19. Golda
    Ultimately, this drama is an essential piece of cinematic contemplation on the value of war.
  20. The Owners
    The Owners is an uncomfortable and pointed satire that will remind you how and why some things never change.

    Gran Turismo
    Gran Turismo captures a truly remarkable young man and his journey to professional legitimacy. This is for anyone needing a jolt to the system and focusing on getting back on one’s true path in life.
  22. Scrapper
    There’s no doubt that Scrapper is a gem, and it features two of the most impressive debuts of the year in filmmaker Charlotte Regan and her star Lola Campbell.

    Retribution
    I’d recommend Retribution if the weather is too hot and you want to spend a few hours in air conditioning. Otherwise, it’s a pass.
  24. Trauma Therapy: Psychosis
    Trauma Therapy: Psychosis is poorly paced, with the interview interjections feeling tacked on and forced in (they were). That’s too bad, as the rest of the film is a creepy and engaging thriller about what it takes to break someone.

    Mr. Jimmy
    I like Mr. Jimmy solely because of its fascinating character study of an obsessed fan, Akio Surakai.
  26. Bank of Dave
    Everyone loves a good underdog story, and Bank of Dave fits that mold, despite needing to be tighter.
  27. Piaffe
    The fact that it purports to function as a not-so-thinly-veiled parable about the limitlessness of sexuality, gender fluidity, and the marginalized makes it that much more unbearable.
  28. Love Life
    It doesn’t talk down to audiences, instead inviting them to experience something relatable, something that both challenges and provides answers. How refreshing.
  29. Before, Now & Then
    It’s beautiful and heartbreaking in equal measure.
  30. The Last Autumn
    The Last Autumn is a marvel to look at. The powerful imagery immerses audiences into a world most don’t know about. In fact, there are times when things feel rather otherworldly.
