Shepherds (2024) - - EDIT “Ultimately, Shepherds is a victory for Deraspe, her actors, and us. Just think twice before quitting your own 9 to 5 to try your hand at guarding a flock.” – Globe and Mail Mar 6, 2025 Full Review Parthenope (2024) 46% EDIT “A two-dimensional examination of gender, tethered to a protagonist with no real depth.” – Globe and Mail Feb 18, 2025 Full Review I'm Still Here (2024) 97% EDIT “It’s a beautiful performance, made even more impactful by its basis in reality. I’m Still Here is a timely, exquisite masterpiece.” – Globe and Mail Jan 28, 2025 Full Review Kidnapped: The Abduction of Edgardo Mortara (2023) 86% EDIT “A testament to the insidiousness of systemic abuse, Kidnapped illuminates the tragedy of unchecked power exploited by men. ” – Globe and Mail Jun 12, 2024 Full Review The Burning Season (2023) 91% EDIT “The Burning Season offers a fresh and heart-wrenching take on the collisions of love, betrayal and personal tragedy.” – Globe and Mail May 10, 2024 Full Review How to Have Sex (2023) 97% EDIT “How to Have Sex is a stressful and infuriating watch because its arc isn’t reserved for fictional characters. Instead, it serves as the jumping point for bigger conversations that are all too common, timely as they are heartbreaking.” – Globe and Mail Feb 6, 2024 Full Review Freud's Last Session (2023) 44% EDIT “What could be a timely and revelatory film about reconciling one’s own demons becomes a disjointed narrative that snaps you out of each emotional moment.” – Globe and Mail Jan 9, 2024 Full Review Hands That Bind (2021) 100% EDIT “An exercise in mental and emotional claustrophobia, Kyle Armstrong’s new Canadian drama Hands that Bind succeeds beautifully at examining the social trappings of toxic masculinity, poverty and the desperation created by both.” – Globe and Mail Nov 1, 2023 Full Review The Mission (2023) 94% EDIT “The Mission’s message is as timely as it is timeless, tragically.” – Globe and Mail Oct 18, 2023 Full Review Polarized (2023) - - EDIT “Takes a close look at issues of race, sexuality and religion and the way they intersect, making for a thoughtful film about the way familial and cultural expectations can hurt the ones we love.” – Globe and Mail Jun 23, 2023 Full Review Mafia Mamma (2023) 21% EDIT “Despite its best intentions at subverting the classic mob genre, the new comedy Mafia Mamma sadly misses the mark and delivers a story rich in tropes but lacking in substance.” – Globe and Mail Apr 12, 2023 Full Review Until Branches Bend (2022) 88% EDIT “As deeply moving as it is upsetting, Until Branches Bend is an affecting drama that begs audiences to question their own social complacency.” – Globe and Mail Mar 15, 2023 Full Review The Quiet Girl (2022) 97% EDIT “Through heart-wrenching, nuanced and arresting performances by Clinch, Crowley and Bennett, The Quiet Girl technically lives up to its name, but speaks volumes about the transformative power of what it means to be loved.” – Globe and Mail Mar 2, 2023 Full Review Call Jane (2022) 82% EDIT “Call Jane delivers a striking and affecting message that self-autonomy is crucial to survival, and that the fight for reproductive health is one that we can under no circumstances back down from.” – Globe and Mail Oct 27, 2022 Full Review My Old School (2022) 92% EDIT “The film uses this sensational tale to compassionately explore why people deceive and how perspective can fuel empathy.” – Globe and Mail Jul 27, 2022 Full Review The Passengers of the Night (2022) 90% EDIT “Cinema may have told us that life moves pretty fast, but it is director Mikhaël Hers who so beautifully demonstrates it in The Passengers of the Night, a nuanced yet spectacular look at how what seems mundane never actually is.” – Globe and Mail Jun 27, 2022 Full Review The Phantom of the Open (2021) 86% EDIT “Never has there been a better time to delve into the story of Maurice Flitcroft, a British crane operator who became known as “Britain’s worst golfer.” And never has there been a better time to honour him onscreen.” – Globe and Mail Jun 16, 2022 Full Review Mothering Sunday (2021) 77% EDIT “Mothering Sunday, a heart-wrenching drama directed by Eva Husson and based on the novel by Graham Swift, shows that people are more than what they do. They are also the sum of their traumas.” – Globe and Mail Apr 13, 2022 Full Review The Wolf and the Lion (2021) 30% EDIT “A frustrating, dramatic and heavy-handed film.” – Globe and Mail Mar 10, 2022 Full Review Good on Paper (2021) 51% EDIT “A witty tale of deceit and betrayal, it's an uncomfortable look at the values we tend to buy into and why.” – Globe and Mail Jun 22, 2021 Full Review The Retreat (2021) 77% EDIT “Truly, a digestible and effective approach to horror.” – Globe and Mail May 20, 2021 Full Review The Woman in the Window (2021) 25% EDIT “The Woman in the Window would be an incredible thriller if it simply dared to commit to a singular vision and executed it without apology.” – Globe and Mail May 13, 2021 Full Review Eat Wheaties! (2021) 67% EDIT “The thing is, despite its unique premise, Eat Wheaties! is easy to embrace.” – Globe and Mail May 8, 2021 Full Review Underplayed (2020) 100% EDIT “In addition to featuring contemporary artists, she makes space for the women who pioneered electronica and the necessary acknowledgement that in overlooking their contributions, we're setting up-and-coming female and non-binary artists to fail.” – Globe and Mail Mar 15, 2021 Full Review The World to Come (2020) 74% EDIT “Waterston and Kirby build a captivating atmosphere of intimacy and tenderness that is as genuine as it is achingly believable. But unfortunately, their talents are almost too big for the story...” – Globe and Mail Mar 4, 2021 Full Review
