  1. Redux Redux
    Easy as it may be to imagine a more artful, restrained, and introspective version of Redux Redux, the one we got is satisfying enough that you may want to take it out for another spin.
  2. Crime 101
    Like Mike’s modus operandi as a criminal, the film goes through all the pro forma motions.
  3. Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie
    The film offers a joyous throwback to the optimistic feeling of the early internet creator era.
  4. Wuthering Heights
    Like a particularly impressive aspic, Wuthering Heights is tantalizing to behold but not so easy to swallow.
  5. My Father's Shadow
    Hope and fear are inextricably bound in Akinola Davies Jr.’s semi-autobiographical film.
  6. By Design
    By forcing us to identify with its largely comatose protagonist, By Design arouses resentment in order to shake us out of torpor.
  7. The Strangers: Chapter 3
    It’s easy to imagine the nihilistic avenues that Renny Harlin’s trilogy capper could have gone down.
  8. Jimpa
    Jimpa’s exploration of non-binary identity ultimately proves superficial.
  9. Josephine
    Beth de Araújo’s sophomore feature is a harrowing chronicle of a premature maturation.
  10. Dracula
    Not even a typically scenery-chewing Christoph Waltz can enliven the proceedings.
  11. Nuisance Bear
    Nuisance Bear is at its most powerful when its message has been condensed down into a single image.
  12. Leviticus
    As star-crossed lovers resolve to battle their demons rather than surrender, this at times intensely creepy horror tale reveals itself to also be a potent and poignant teen romance.
  13. The Invite
    By the time The Invite burrows into the heart of its main characters and reveals the scope of their regrets and longings, it’s hard to argue that it doesn’t strike a chord of genuine emotion.
  14. I Want Your Sex
    The film gets too caught up in concern trolling about the sexual timidity of today’s youth.
  15. undertone
    Throughout Undertone, Ian Tuason delights in deploying sound to eerily suggestive ends.
  16. Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die
    Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die’s obviousness only makes its proximity to the real-life A.I. slop invasion more unnerving, and the extent of what humanity has accepted for convenience’s sake more abhorrent.
  17. To Hold a Mountain
    The documentary ultimately reveals itself as a paean to female strength and resistance.
  18. The Moment
    Farce and sincerity make more odd bedfellows across Aidan Zamiri’s meta mockumentary about Brat Summer.
  19. Send Help
    This is an immensely effective tropical island-set chamber drama in which two characters see their gender and labor relations start to reverse in ways that eventually reveal surprising ambiguities.
  20. The History of Concrete
    The odd and poignant The History of Concrete could be seen as a show of Buddhist acceptance on John Wilson's part of art's, and by extension life's, transience.
  21. Islands
    The film is most interesting when it's keyed to its main character's existential malaise across what plays out like a White Lotus B-plot.
  22. Natchez
    With so many engaging voices on offer, Suzannah Herbert wisely chooses to let the locals tell the story rather than providing any explicit narration of her own.
  23. A Poet
    This finely shaded character study of a recalcitrant social pariah feels more than anything else like an existential parable.
  24. The Oldest Person in the World
    Sam Green’s documentary has a knack for finding moments where we can feel the broad sweep of a supercentenarian lifespan, condensed down into a single, everyday occurrence.
  25. Mercy
    More than anything, this twisty dystopian thriller commits to the jittery anxiety of doomscrolling.
  26. Return to Silent Hill
    Christophe Gans’s film does away with all the psychosexual nuance of Silent Hill 2.
    • 90 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Seeds
    Brittany Shyne’s lens is held rapt by the ramblings and insights of the elderly, but it springs to life when it’s turned toward the next generation, whose future is of utmost concern in light of the socioeconomic tensions documented by the film.
  28. A Useful Ghost
    Ratchapoom Boonbunchachoke’s defense of historical memory couldn’t be more timely.
  29. Mother of Flies
    Despite the affinity the Adams clan has displayed for spooky, goopy imagery in the past, Mother of Flies finds them reluctant to fully exercise those talents for fear of tipping their hand.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Mr. Nobody Against Putin
    The film starkly reveals the toll propaganda takes on everyday individuals and communities.
