Going Viral (2024) “Aside from its off-kilter science fiction elements and generational confusion, Going Viral is an amusing and playful romp that will remind viewers of everything wonderful about the 1980s. ” – Vague Visages Feb 17, 2025 Full Review Electric Lady Studios: A Jimi Hendrix Vision (2024) “"With 'Electric Lady Studios,' McDermott artfully explores intriguing stories about hard-working music professionals who experienced first-hand what it was like to make a dream come true."” – Vague Visages Oct 10, 2024 Full Review Not Not Jazz (2024) ““Miller’s documentary will likely bore viewers who are unfamiliar with Medeski Martin & Wood, but ‘Not Not Jazz’ is still a worthy tribute to what makes the band members such singular musicians.”” – Vague Visages Oct 7, 2024 Full Review Joker: Folie à Deux (2024) 31% “Joker: Folie à Deux is a failed experiment that squanders its promising concept and stellar cast on a lackluster and overly dour vision. Musicals may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but Joker: Folie à Deux managed to make the genre mind-numbingly boring.” – Kotaku Oct 4, 2024 Full Review Guy Friends (2024) 87% “"The main issue with 'Guy Friends' is that the film hinges on Jariwala's performance, which is heavy on histrionics and lacking in truth."” – Vague Visages Sep 23, 2024 Full Review Sleep No More: Director's Cut (2024) ““‘Sleep No More’ remains a mishmash of clichés, genres and lackluster ideas.”” – Vague Visages Sep 20, 2024 Full Review Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024) 75% “[S]itting through Beetlejuice Beetlejuice felt like going to an amusement park as a grown-up: the rides are now worn and clunky and you just want to get off. Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is all flashing lights and bright colors, but little substance. ” – Kotaku Sep 6, 2024 Full Review I'll Be Right There (2024) 86% “I’ll Be Right There has a gentle simplicity that sets it apart from other films. ” – Vague Visages Sep 6, 2024 Full Review Twisters (2024) 75% 3.5/5 “While the ride may be similar, you still get swept away by Twisters. It is an exhilarating popcorn flick that feels so rare in the current movie landscape. ” – Video Librarian Magazine Aug 8, 2024 Full Review Tiger 24 (2022) 100% “This extraordinary documentary arrests the viewer with its sumptuous visuals and high-stakes drama.” – Screen Queens Dec 31, 2022 Full Review Goodbye, Petrushka (2022) 94% “The film leans heavily on its humor, supported by its effervescent leading lady, and it has a certain je ne sai quoi that makes it a joy to watch. Goodbye, Petrushka is a whimsical delight in every way.” – Screen Queens Jul 29, 2022 Full Review Coast (2021) 69% “Coast is an earnest coming-of-age film about adolescent discontent with a unique perspective on the pressures of second-generation immigrants. ” – Cinematic Visions Jul 9, 2022 Full Review Single Mother by Choice (2021) 83% “Despite the melancholy real-life backdrop, Single Mother by Choice balances lighthearted sweetness with a thoughtful reflection on isolation.” – Screen Queens Dec 11, 2021 Full Review Scarborough (2021) 100% “Scarborough is an unmissable drama with open-hearted energy and an incredible amount of empathy.” – Screen Queens Sep 19, 2021 Full Review The Hill Where Lionesses Roar (2021) 92% “With her confident point of view and heartfelt prose, Bajrami makes her archetypal narrative seem fresh.” – Vague Visages Sep 15, 2021 Full Review Camp Wedding (2019) 67% 3.5/4 “Camp Wedding is a splashy throwback to 1980s slashers with a contemporary twist that features an inclusive cast. It has a frothy spirit and theatrical aesthetic that makes it a truly enjoyable watch.” – Video Librarian Magazine Sep 5, 2021 Full Review Shiva Baby (2020) 96% 4/4 “Seligman and Sennott are a dream team, capturing female insecurity and the clumsy transition into adulthood with a fresh and contemporary shrewdness. Their intelligence and creativity make Shiva Baby destined to become a comedy classic.” – Video Librarian Magazine Jun 17, 2021 Full Review Cut and Chop (2020) “Hale has a singularly creative directorial vision that makes his surreal horror and dark comedy an intelligent dissection of the murky lines between reality and fiction.” – Screen Queens Nov 29, 2020 Full Review Bruce Springsteen's Letter to You (2020) 97% “Letter to You is a touching time capsule of a band with a deep, unique kinship that can only be forged over time.” – Backstreets Oct 22, 2020 Full Review Amulet (2020) 73% “The boldly ambitious and psychedelic Amulet is ultimately too cryptic for its own good; you are unsure of the characters' motivations or what exactly Garai is trying to say.” – Video Librarian Magazine Aug 4, 2020 Full Review Relic (2020) 91% “There is a mournful, sentimental core beneath the chilling scares that elevates Relic to something deeply profound-a work of art that will cut you to the bone.” – Screen Queens Jul 8, 2020 Full Review The Invisible Man (2020) 91% “The film plays like a roller coaster, going through twists and turns that will leave you breathless.” – Video Librarian Magazine May 22, 2020 Full Review CRSHD (2019) 75% “With an adorable and joyous bubblegum aesthetic that really pops, Emily Cohn portrays young adult life in the digital age with honesty and sharp, observant humor.” – Screen Queens May 15, 2020 Full Review Motherless Brooklyn (2019) 65% “Edward Norton's sincere, hyper-stylised approach is both lovingly old-fashioned and refreshingly modern, crafting an impressive and thoroughly riveting mystery.” – Screen Queens May 1, 2020 Full Review The Sharks (2019) 82% “What could have been an engrossing narrative about a young woman's uncertain navigation of her newfound sexuality ends up being tiresome and vague. The Sharks is dull, seeming to move in circles like the creatures of its title, endlessly going nowhere.” – Screen Queens Apr 26, 2020 Full Review
