Clown in a Cornfield (2025) 73% “This movie is so slick that it barely exists, and it made me miss, once again, the rough-hewn, quasi-competency of the slasher movies of the ‘70s and ‘80s.” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) May 9, 2025 Full Review Henry Johnson (2025) 57% “If you’re a Mamet head, see “Henry Johnson.” But be ready. Mamet heads should be ready anyway, as the risk is part of the juice with the work of the screenwriter, playwright, filmmaker, theater director and unexpected neoconservative. ” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) May 9, 2025 Full Review Bonjour Tristesse (2024) 65% “Without Chloë Sevigny, this new “Bonjour Tristesse” would be a pleasant surprise, a confident announcement from a new filmmaker. With her, it has a fierce undertow.” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) May 2, 2025 Full Review The Surfer (2024) 86% “Finnegan allows the oddness of “The Surfer” to sneak up on you.” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) May 2, 2025 Full Review Basic Instinct (1992) 56% “Ruthless craftsmanship is Paul Verhoeven’s highest form of politics.” – Slant Magazine May 1, 2025 Full Review Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005) 79% “This is the End of America writ large in blockbuster font, connected to the end of empires past.” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) Apr 29, 2025 Full Review The Shrouds (2024) 75% “There are scenes in “The Shrouds” that are as daring and personal as any in the Cronenberg canon.” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) Apr 29, 2025 Full Review Sinners (2025) 97% “Have you ever watched a great blues concert hoping it would turn into an orgiastic horror movie that somehow only deepens the poetry of the music? Probably not, but “Sinners” reveals that you should have.” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) Apr 18, 2025 Full Review Hell of a Summer (2023) 53% ““Hell of a Summer” is suitable midnight-with-popcorn-in-July-viewing, which is how many of us first encountered Jason to begin with.” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) Apr 14, 2025 Full Review Freaky Tales (2024) 74% “Boden and Fleck manage to inject Tarantino-land with a shot of civic-minded earnestness and get out alive. Given how many filmmakers have embarrassed themselves over the years trying to out-Mack Q.T., this is an impressive accomplishment.” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) Apr 14, 2025 Full Review The Friend (2024) 84% “Rather than trying haphazardly to recalibrate a familiar recipe, the filmmakers execute it with uncommon grace and sensitivity.” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) Apr 14, 2025 Full Review Eephus (2024) 100% “Random little things that tend to only happen in real life happen here.” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) Apr 14, 2025 Full Review Flipside (2023) 97% ““Flipside” is catnip, then, for people who suspect that they are failed artists and cowards of convention, though normies should be moved as well by the pall of middle-age that hangs over it. T” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) Mar 21, 2025 Full Review Magazine Dreams (2023) 79% “And yet a film with this much emotional and visual ambition is to be applauded. I suspect that we will hear from Bynum again soon.” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) Mar 21, 2025 Full Review The Rule of Jenny Pen (2024) 71% ““The Rule of Jenny Pen” doesn’t make much sense, but it has a nasty kick” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) Mar 7, 2025 Full Review Mickey 17 (2025) 77% “Nothing counts, everything is about a gonzo attitude that is derivative and amused only with itself.” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) Mar 7, 2025 Full Review Nashville (1975) 89% 4.5/5 “This is a film you could proudly show to a person from another country with the proviso: This is America, for better and worse. This is everything right and wrong that the experiment of this country has led to, and will probably lead to.” – Slant Magazine Feb 26, 2025 Full Review SLY LIVES! (aka The Burden of Black Genius) (2025) 93% “Questlove knows how to talk to us normies who love music but who have no idea how it works, and the value he takes in information lifts “Sly Lives!” far above most rock docs.” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) Feb 18, 2025 Full Review Hard Truths (2024) 95% “Marvel at the vividness of the demons that Jean-Baptiste has been able to conjure in this extraordinary performance: Her exorcism is our rapture.” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) Feb 18, 2025 Full Review Zodiac Killer Project (2025) 86% 3/4 “Zodiac Killer Project is a wicked embodiment of Marshall McLuhan’s notion of the media itself being the message. ” – Slant Magazine Jan 31, 2025 Full Review OBEX (2025) 100% 3/4 “Albert Birney knows that fantasy is a potent force, that it can lead you deep into the worst parts of yourself, or, with the right influences, lead you back to life.” – Slant Magazine Jan 30, 2025 Full Review It's Not Me (2024) 90% ““It’s Not Me,” with its wild rhymes and ecstatic imagery, is concerned with making movies poetic again...” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review The Brutalist (2024) 93% ““The Brutalist” is the kind of movie that tries to intimidate you out of your own uncertainties with it.” – Style Weekly (Richmond, VA) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Jackie Brown (1997) 88% “Forget Tarantino’s baggage. Jackie Brown is a vulnerable movie from a mainstream American filmmaker of any generation, especially at a time when stars are required more than ever to behave as if they don’t age.” – Slant Magazine Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Yojimbo (1961) 96% “Yojimbo’s premise, concerning fisticuffs between samurai and ruffians that distract the populace from the seizure of power by white-collar thugs, has only grown more pertinent to our present day. ” – Slant Magazine Jan 9, 2025 Full Review
