  1. Sometimes the central metaphors of the film are so cleanly didactic they risk becoming preachy, but, more often than not, the film tilts in such inventive ways that recognition only breeds appreciation.
  2. As the film progresses, and Melody continues to find new and innovative ways to express herself and communicate, she finds a new grasp on life, which helps her true personality shine through. This ultimately creates a heartwarming and engaging film that constantly challenges expectations and forces us to assess our own bias.
  3. Can you truly befriend or even develop an acquaintance with someone of dramatically opposing views? The optimist in me says yes. But when it comes to the development and protection of children, Mungiu proves it’s grayer than I care to admit.
  4. Enzo is subtle in its examination of queer desire, understanding that quick glances and soft touch can be just as sensual — and even more effective — as anything intense.
  5. I Am: Celion Dion is a compelling and engaging snapshot, a visceral experience that is worth watching, especially for fans.
  6. The film’s characters are human and, while they’re afforded depth and nuance, Ebo isn’t interested in coddling them or excusing Lee-Curtis’ behavior. And it’s in the balanced exploration of characters and religious hypocrisy, the blending of the facetious with the serious that makes the film worth the watch.
  7. Top Gun: Maverick is a rare sequel that is not only better than the original but retroactively makes Top Gun's story altogether deeper.
  8. It’s a film that is certainly a must-see, complex and emotionally devastating in its exploration of power and hierarchy.
  9. Anchored by excellent lead performances from Ed Helms and Patti Harrison, Together Together is a charming crowd-pleaser with a lot of heart.
  10. Led by a stunning Emma Mackey, Emily is a striking depiction of a woman embracing her individuality while crafting an iconic piece of literature.
  11. Resident Evil: Welcome To Raccoon City is a fun and faithful adaptation of the games it is based on, but is lacking in character substance.
  12. Fire Island is a mesmerizing, joyous experience and one of the best modern adaptations of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice. The film has also solidified itself as one of the best romantic comedies to date. It is filled with plenty of hearty laughs, heartfelt sighs, and heartbreaking moments, making it worth revisiting repeatedly.
  13. The sincerity with which The Book of Clarence approaches its story, combined with its sheer boldness, will cement Samuel as a filmmaker who soars to unimaginable heights.
  14. Though some may long for a meatier, more dialogue-heavy script, most viewers will appreciate the sumptuous meal offered by Miller's impressive visual storytelling and Taylor-Joy's powerful screen presence.
  15. Limbo handles its themes with enormous grace, balancing despair with levity and a realism that makes this drama emotionally intense and worthwhile.
  16. Magpie turns certain tropes into narrative weapons, and it works at every turn, culminating in a finale that will leave you wanting more even as it gives us a tension-fueled conclusion.
  17. It’s the kind of movie that’s simultaneously a feel-good tear-jerker that’s deeply personal in the themes it tackles.
  18. The Queen of My Dreams depicts complicated love amid familial conflicts and an adoration of classic Bollywood cinema.
  19. Heartwarming, elegant, and often profound in its exploration of loneliness and human connection, I’m Your Man is exquisitely charming and smart.
  20. If there is any justice, Door Mouse will garner the attention it deserves for being a well-defined narrative brought to life effectively and efficiently by a talented director whose imagination and creative drive become more evident with each scene.
  21. We get two influential actors reuniting on the big screen in a film that is comparable to their acting gifts.
  22. His Three Daughters is a balancing act. The characters are layered and the story is so simple yet thoroughly touching and, at times, painful to watch because of the flood of emotion that comes through.
  23. Final Destination Bloodlines is a spectacle, a joyride, and easily the funniest iteration in the franchise.

    The Watcher In The Woods is an eerie, gothic horror movie and while it's suitable for older children, it feels utterly unlike anything else Disney has ever made.
  24. Late Night with the Devil is tremendously fun.
  25. Twinless is designed to make you squirm, but it's through this discomfort that Sweeney finds humor and heart.
  26. That exquisite balance of art and entertainment is exactly what makes each Bong Joon-ho film a gift to be savored – here's hoping his next one doesn't take quite so long to reach us.
  27. With an underlying theme of love and acceptance, Single All The Way blossoms into a funny, delightful, and heartwarming romcom gift for all.
  28. The Mauritanian is an incredibly powerful, poignant, enraging film, one that is uplifted by an incredibly magnetic lead performance by Tahar Rahim.
  29. Like many other great documentaries, The Pitch is not satisfied with simply showing the surface level of the problem, nor is it fulfilled when it reveals possible solutions. The Pitch drives deeper to the core of the problem, making its argument in a concise and undeniably powerful way.
