Reviews
Focused, long-form reviews.
Black Adam [2022]
It’s not always bad to be stupid, and Black Adam shows us the right way to have a good time when brain cells are at a premium.
Bones and All [2022]
A difficult romance that won’t be for everyone, Bones and All is fantastic if you’ve got the stomach for it.
Men 2022
Men is introspective and violent, thought maybe a little stranger than it needed to be.
Knocking [2021]
Weird but very smart, Knocking is short, sweet, and sharp.
Kimi [2022]
What could have been a great commentary on the in-home technology age falls straight into mediocrity.
Motherly [2021]
A break-in movie that’s actually worth your time.
Blood on Her Name [2019]
An overwhelming smart and sharp crime drama that breathes life into an otherwise forgettable genre.
Share [2019]
Quiet, serene, and powerful. This is not one to miss.
Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities: Season 1 [2022]
A horror anthology better than the rest.
Hellraiser [2022]
Hellraiser? More like, “why the hell-wasier-this made”.
Spontaneous [2020]
Unfortunately poignant, this coming of age story has more to say than most.
<Short> The Mist [2007]
Great creatures, brutal conclusion, this is a very solid early 00’s horror.
<Short> Little Monster [2019]
Funny, if a little simple, this is a great Halloween-time laugh.
The Innocents [2021]
If you think kids are little demons, check this out. If you don’t, check this out as well. Actually, just watch this regardless. It’s really good.
Barbarian [2022]
A strong start leads to an incredibly disappointing end.
Marcel the Shell With Shoes On [2022]
A tiny shell on a keyboard has no right to give you this many feelings.
<Short> The Queen of Black Magic [2019]
Excellent foreign horror remake.
Vengeance [2022]
An excellent effort puts B.J. Novak on the radar, but this adventure falls a little flat.
Obi-Wan Kenobi [2022]
Deborah Chow brings us the kind of Star Wars content we deserve. Finally.
Happening [2021]
Powerful, difficult, and [unfortunately] still necessary, Happening deserves your attention.
