  1. Christmas Eve in Miller's Point
    What I connected to wins out over what I didn't – I have enjoyed sitting with its ideas, and there are a couple flourishes that will stick with me.

    Pedro Páramo
    Prieto also does manage to craft some beautiful images in the flashback sequences. While he doesn't harness his cinematography experience often enough to push the story forward visually, it is impossible to deny the power of certain images.

    Red One
    There's lots of bells and whistles, but in attempting to deconstruct and reconstruct Christmas spirit there's just never enough charm to carry the spell.
  4. Weekend in Taipei
    With a game cast and thrilling action sequences, Huang’s film offers more than expected to keep us engaged.
  5. Elevation
    Elevation comes across as a mild copycat rather than a compelling project that stands on its own merits.
  6. The Best Christmas Pageant Ever
    Even if it's ultimately forgettable, the movie has an undeniable feel-good appeal, and during the cold winter months, there's no reason to take that away from anybody. Flaws and all, there's no question that this movie will find its audience and be celebrated for its nostalgia and pathos.
  7. Hitpig!
    Hitpig seems to have gone all in on the goofy humor and left the movie with an unappealing and unenthusiastic story that, despite the novelty of a bounty hunter pig, can't make up for a movie with no stakes.
  8. Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl
    The animators bring this world to life with expert skill.
  9. Here
    It’s a film so soulless I questioned the point of it.
  10. Juror #2
    It’s an imperfect film that is intriguing until the end.
  11. The Graduates
    The film is grounded, avoiding sensationalism and empty indulgences.
  12. Time Cut
    The film is unable to sustain any tension and is seemingly afraid of its own potential for violence, despite gesturing toward the creative weapon choice that is practically a bar for entry into the slasher genre.
  13. The Gutter
    The Gutter is ultimately an enjoyable throwback to the broad-skewing sports comedies of the '90s.
  14. Blitz
    While Blitz may not be transformative, it isn’t all bad. McQueen is a capable director who deftly moves between different points in time, offering a glimpse into Rita and George’s life before and during the war.
  15. Small Things Like These
    Mielants’ film does a lot with little dialogue, setting the stage for something rich and thought-provoking.
  16. Classified
    Though competently shot, the storytelling and performances leave much to be desired.
  17. The Remarkable Life of Ibelin
    The film offers an inspiring and remarkable story of hope, creativity, and adaptability, through the eyes of Mats and his alter ego, Ibelin.
  18. Memoir of a Snail
    Memoir of a Snail never asks us or the narrative to compare the depth of sadness or experience. Every experience is treated with equal weight and importance. Even as we realize that Grace's life is becoming a string of misfortunes, it's impossible not to stick with her.
  19. Venom: The Last Dance
    Venom: The Last Dance shows what happens when you let a perfectly cast actor and a director with a lot of affection for the character run wild in a world of Marvel superheroes. You get a movie that's a little weird, a lot silly, and full of fun.
  20. Allswell in New York
    The film brings the drama, but it’s never overdone and the performances from the cast elevate the material, adding dimensions to the characters’ lives.
  21. MadS
    MadS shows what can be done with a little imagination and faith in the audience.
  22. Rumours
    With the exceptional performances from the cast and several laugh-out-loud moments, this creative film is wildly entertaining.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Brothers
    It's hard to pick out exactly what was supposed to be funny when you take the slapstick away, and it occurs to me finally that Brothers was never actually a comedy at all, it's an indie drama wearing a clown costume for no discernible reason.
  24. Goodrich
    As a story of parental reckoning, Goodrich lacks the interrogative instinct of something like Sofia Coppola's On the Rocks, and it rushes Grace's catharsis as a result. But as a story of a man's late-stage awakening, it strikes a more resonant chord.
  25. The Line
    The film effectively illustrates how hazing is not singularly a university issue.
  26. Smile 2
    Even though it doesn’t take its own storyline seriously enough, Smile 2 is entertaining. Don’t expect the horror film to have the best commentary on mental health issues, but be ready for some jump-scare fun.
  27. Lonely Planet
    The film is melancholic and contemplative in a way that isn’t always the case with romance genre films.
  28. Blink
    Instead of simply marveling at the beauty of the world, Blink invites us to step out of our comfort zone and explore everything the world has to offer.
  29. House of Spoils
    House of Spoils is an exploration of witchcraft, land, and the respect it should be given, and a study of the perversion and stress of the restaurant industry.
  30. Piece By Piece
    What the documentary lacks in depth it makes up for with style, creativity, and entertainment value.
