Anora

‘Anora’ Review – A Riveting and Thought-Provoking Addition to Sean Baker’s Filmography

by Becca Johnson

Anora continues Sean Baker’s winning streak of character-focused, well-written and pivotal movies.

Juror #2

‘Juror #2’ Review – Clint Eastwood’s Courtroom Drama Delivers its Final Verdict too Early

by Becca Johnson

Though Juror #2 is not the most memorable effort from Clint Eastwood, it is a solid entry into his filmography.

Queer

‘Queer’ Review: A Mesmerizing, Introspective Story of Longing and Identity

by Becca Johnson

The performances in Queer are transformative, the cinematography is consistently stunning and the exploration of its poignant themes is second to none.

We live in Time

‘We Live In Time’ Review – Every Second Counts in this Exceptionally Crafted Love Story

by Becca Johnson

We Live in Time beautifully tells its story through the use of a fantastic non-linear narrative, emotion-fueled performances and thorough theme exploration.

Megalopolis

‘Megalopolis’ Review: A Bold and Divisive Passion Project Worth Seeing

by Becca Johnson

A whirlwind of insane ideas, admirable creativity and complex themes, Megalopolis is bound to divide audiences due to tackling too much.

Alien: Romulus

‘Alien: Romulus’ Review: Alvarez Injects Life Into Yet Another Horror Franchise

by Becca Johnson

Alien: Romulus is a dread-inducing, tense and scary space horror with excellent performances, a concise story and tremendous use of practical effects. 

Borderlands

‘Borderlands’ Review: Another Disappointing Video Game Adaptation’

by Becca Johnson

Borderlands is crippled by cringe-worthy dialogue, a weak and under-explored storyline, underdeveloped annoying characters with no chemistry and a lack of intensity when it comes to the action.

Twisters

Review: ‘Twisters’ Goes Down a Storm as a Whirlwind of a Blockbuster

by Becca Johnson

Twisters entertains audiences with jaw-dropping action set pieces, a chemistry-induced budding romance, high stakes and toe-tapping country music.

Longlegs (2024)

‘Longlegs’ Review: Procedural Police Thriller meets Harrowing Horror

by Becca Johnson

Longlegs is an ominous, dread inducing flick helmed by exceptional lead performances and a unique visual style.

Kinds of Kindness

Kinds of Kindness Review: This Wonderfully Wacky Psychosexual Triptych Won’t be for Everyone

by Becca Johnson

With sharp dialogue, laugh out loud black comedy and a lot of themes and ideas to chew on (perhaps too many), Kinds of Kindness is a bold, divisive character study that will be commended by most, but not loved by all.
