  1. Dune: Part Two
    For those already invested in the “Dune” franchise, “Dune: Part Two” is a sweeping and engaging continuation that will make you eager for a third installment. And if you were a fence-sitter on the first, this should also hold your attention with a taut, well-done script and engaging characters with whom you’ll want to spend nearly three hours.
  2. Cuckoo
    Viewed under the right conditions — that is to say, late at night, in a certain headspace and surrounded by an audience of fellow travelers ready to take the ride – “Cuckoo” will offer an awful lot of big-screen fun. Only those external factors are nearly necessary to meet an overeager film with only one note to play.
  3. Small Things Like These
    Small Things Like Things is a modest gem.
  4. Madame Web
    It’s an interesting enough premise, even if you divorce the film from its comic book origins, but bland direction and awkward dialogue overtake the film and add a sheen of mediocrity to the entire thing.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Lisa Frankenstein
    The silly and sexy horror comedy brings an edgy twist to the adored subgenre and, through its reverence for the beloved decade’s penchant for gothic charm, makes for a ridiculously brilliant spin on a timeless story over 200 years old.
    • 35 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Argylle
    Argylle is fun in spurts with a strong cast of characters that help you get through the overly exaggerated runtime. But the script boxes itself into a corner too often and falls into repetition.
  7. Little Death
    Begert’s aim is to shake Hollywood up. Yet his two movies-in-one proves that some old rules persist for a reason. As good as Schwimmer is as Martin, that story sinks under the weight of the one Fike and Ryder tell.
  8. Devo
    It takes a group that bumped up against the boundaries and instead just operates within them.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Black Box Diaries
    It’s not an easy story to stomach, but in this staggering documentary playing in competition at Sundance, the journalist-turned-filmmaker crafts a stunning, effective tale of reclaiming victimhood and the fight for justice.
  10. Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story
    “Super/Man” is emotional, resilient, and inspiring, opening up private battles to the general public.
  11. Sasquatch Sunset
    Sasquatch Sunset is sometimes hilarious, often unique, and otherwise forgettable.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Suncoast
    Where Suncoast stumbles is when it sacrifices specificity for generic sentiment.
  13. The Remarkable Life of Ibelin
    Ree’s magnificent documentary takes its audience not only through the tragic elements of Mats’ life—the diagnosis of his illness, his decline, his untimely death—but the good parts, too, through effective testimony and powerful archival images, audio and video.
  14. Eno
    The film is defiantly unconventional even if it does provide enough of the usual beats to give its audience a solid footing.
  15. Veni Vidi Vici
    Veni Vidi Vici is like a piercing scream into the void, daring you to truly process what it’s telling you for fear you might fall victim to its apathy next.
  16. The Outrun
    It’s a bit muddled in execution, but despite its faults, the film is visually ambitious with things to say hidden under the surface.
  17. Girls State
    It not only introduces another side of this democratic activity, but does so at the perfect time to highlight its inconsistencies and inequalities, giving these girls the extra opportunity for reflection and growth.
  18. A Different Man
    A Different Man is a fascinating exploration of humanity with Sebastian Stan and Adam Pearson being a team I want to see reunite in other works. The climax is a tad underwhelming but overall it’s a rollicking ride worth experiencing.
  19. Your Monster
    Unabashedly silly, yet effectively sincere, it is a film that grows on you.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Between the Temples
    Between the Temples is not solely about organized and labeled relationships and religion, but the humility behind that faith and the ways in which it is intricately shared, like birds of a feather flocking together.
  21. My Old Ass
    Park creates a genuine tenderness that Stella beautifully captures, but the narrative itself paints a habitual tale of retrospect and the enlightenment of being in the present.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A Real Pain
    Though the film only provides a snapshot of a moment in time, Culkin’s performance is so spectacular that it makes it feel as though we have known Benji forever.
  23. Seeking Mavis Beacon
    This journey is more than just worthwhile. It’s powerful and it’s a joy.
  24. Love Lies Bleeding
    Glass is always aware of what might disgust her audience and make them squirm, a delightful and intriguing addition to this psychological thriller that is anything but subtle. It’s an impressive directorial achievement that compliments the work of Glass’s equally stirring cast.
  25. The American Society of Magical Negroes
    Even with its faults, though, “Magical Negroes” is sure to spark meaningful and needed conversations around race among the audiences reflected in the film. At the very least, Libii shows that he is witty and adept enough as a director to continue working in his craft.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Porcelain War
    The intensity with which Porcelain War presents its horrors will knock you down.
  27. Exhibiting Forgiveness
    Kaphar brings something special, narratively raw, but thematically refined to his first feature.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Presence
    Each time we are thrown into something new, the film teases out moments of humor built around the family’s dysfunction just as it draws out a growing feeling that something bad is coming.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Freaky Tales
    Freaky Tales is a great time that knows how to channel its many loves (of the Bay Area, of movies) into an infectious force. Come for the campy, bloody fun but stay for the clear love for the mediums it’s working in: Movies and memory.
  30. Thelma
    Thelma is a totally pure delight that gives June Squibb a much-deserved leading role. Her and Roundtree are fabulously paired and Margolin’s script is breezy and sharp in equal measure. You’ll want to see this with your best friend, your parents, and, yes, your grandma.
