The Lair of the White Worm (1988)

“What's so wonderful about Russell's quintessential female villain is that she embodies a sense that evil has no gender. It has no feelings. It simply is, and it's quite fun to get to know it.” –

Perfect (2018)
21%
“There's a lack of control and specificity in their themes and how they play out, so it's never quite clear why the filmmakers are telling this story and what they're trying to get across.” –

Be Natural: The Untold Story of Alice Guy-Blaché (2018)
96%
“The breadth of detail about not just film and Guy-Blaché's body of work but also the actual process of how a woman's work gets erased is jaw-dropping, and Be Natural has the potential to completely upend the canon of international cinema.” –

Wild Nights With Emily (2018)

“With a tone evocative of Drunk History, the film approaches storytelling with a whimsical air, where period authenticity of every object and costume isn't necessarily the focus.” –

Captain Marvel (2019)
79%
“Absolutely grounds itself in the '90s, even evoking a riot grrrl-adjacent feeling, buoyed by a soundtrack that features almost exclusively rock fronted by female voices - a reminder of an era that showed so much promise for brash, loud women.” –

Ruben Brandt, Collector (2018)

A-
“What's so grand about Ruben Brandt isn't its story or the characters, which are both abstractions. It's the animation-the detailed artwork, so dense that it warrants repeat viewings.” –

Stieg Larsson: The Man Who Played With Fire (2018)
88%
“Though documentary re-enactments can come across slapdash, Georggson's attempt to create an authentic portrait of his subject with period-appropriate production design and costuming results in a mood not unlike a David Fincher film or a Larsson novel.” –

Egg (2018)

“It's nice to see Palka embracing the messiness of feminist theses as she progresses in her career, and if she continues delivering a movie a year, someday we'll likely be able to examine the full life of a woman through the entirety of her body of work.” –

Destroyer (2018)
74%
“Despite the film's needlessly fractured structure and a relentlessly grim story, Kidman and Kusama seem to be speaking the same language, illuminating the faults of the protagonist and of every tragic hard-boiled detective in cinematic history.” –

“This thoughtful, textured story - though brutal at times - stands as one of the clearest depictions of turmoil, racism and nepotism in local politics that's ever been drawn onscreen.” –

Shirkers (2018)

“What we - and Tan - come to find is that how the director describes or sees herself in the past doesn't always match up to her collaborators' opinions of the time; this is also a story about the stories we tell ourselves.” –

Strike, Dear Mistress, and Cure His Heart (2018)

“The film is at its best when it's most unhinged. When Reece blocks his scenes like a theater director, some serious shades of R.W. Fassbinder's Chinese Roulette bleed through, and it's totally satisfying and electric.” –
