Disney's Snow White (2025) 40% 2/4 “This is a fairly paint-by-numbers exercise in updating a quintessential but unquestionably quaint property for modern consumption.” – Slant Magazine Mar 19, 2025 Full Review Wicked (2024) 87% 2.5/4 “Wicked’s frequent patches of sluggishness are particularly frustrating because so much of the film, especially the songs, is glorious. ” – Slant Magazine Nov 19, 2024 Full Review The Critic (2023) 52% 1.5/4 “It’s only the winking malice of Ian McKellen’s title character that prevents the film from imploding entirely, dirigible-like, as the haywire plot begins to nosedive.” – Slant Magazine Sep 11, 2024 Full Review Mean Girls (2024) 69% 2.5/4 “While fundamentally entertaining, this new film often finds itself in distractingly constant conversation with its original source material.” – Slant Magazine Jan 10, 2024 Full Review Waitress: The Musical (2023) 100% 3/4 “The film accomplishes its principal goal of capturing Sara Bareilles’s spectacular take on Jenna Hunterson, especially in its close-ups of the singer-songwriter.” – Slant Magazine Dec 3, 2023 Full Review My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 (2023) 31% 3/4 “For devotees of the franchise, Nia Vardalos's film will be a surprisingly emotional trip home.” – Slant Magazine Sep 7, 2023 Full Review Elemental (2023) 73% 2/4 “Elemental does a whole lot of huffing and puffing but, at its core, feels no more grounded than a gentle wisp of air.” – Slant Magazine Jun 15, 2023 Full Review Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore (2022) 46% 2/4 “With this film, nuance seems to have disapparated from the wizarding world altogether.” – Slant Magazine Apr 5, 2022 Full Review Death on the Nile (2022) 62% 2.5/4 “Once things get moving, its smooth sailing to the double-shocker of a denouement.” – Slant Magazine Feb 7, 2022 Full Review West Side Story (2021) 91% 2.5/4 “Steven Spielberg's West Side Story is at its best when it zooms in and settles down into character study.” – Slant Magazine Dec 2, 2021 Full Review Tick, Tick... Boom! (2021) 88% 2.5/4 “tick, tick... BOOM! never quite resolves that tension between well-attended wake and intimate memoir.” – Slant Magazine Nov 19, 2021 Full Review Dear Evan Hansen (2021) 28% 2/4 “The film works harder to fix the problems with its source material than to establish itself as an independent piece of art.” – Slant Magazine Sep 20, 2021 Full Review In the Heights (2021) 94% 3.5/4 “Consistently surprising and creatively fearless, John M. Chu's film brings monumentality to a work of infinite heart.” – Slant Magazine May 31, 2021 Full Review Six Minutes to Midnight (2020) 36% 2/4 “Andy Goddard's film clumsily superimposes a frenzied, completely fictional spy adventure onto a fascinating fragment of pre-war history.” – Slant Magazine Mar 22, 2021 Full Review Raya and the Last Dragon (2021) 93% 3.5/4 “On its own gorgeously depicted terms, this film sticks the landing as a celebration of hope, a manifestation of what unfettered trust in our shared humanity could look like.” – Slant Magazine Mar 1, 2021 Full Review The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run (2020) 66% 1.5/4 “If the SpongeBob franchise has finally gone on the run, it seems like it's left the audience that matters most in the dust.” – Slant Magazine Feb 28, 2021 Full Review The United States vs. Billie Holiday (2021) 55% 2.5/4 “The film finds its purpose most pointedly when it zeroes in on the unambiguous relationship between Holiday and "Strange Fruit."” – Slant Magazine Feb 19, 2021 Full Review The Dig (2021) 87% 3/4 “The Dig clearly relishes in having found so many fascinating real people arriving at one place at once.” – Slant Magazine Jan 27, 2021 Full Review Beautiful Something Left Behind (2020) 94% 3/4 “Katrine Philp's documentary boldly argues for a clear-eyed frankness in talking to bereaved children about loss.” – Slant Magazine Jan 7, 2021 Full Review Pinocchio (2019) 84% 3/4 “Matteo Garrone's adaptation of Carlo Collodi's story trembles with corporeal strangeness and unpredictability.” – Slant Magazine Dec 21, 2020 Full Review The Prom (2020) 54% 3/4 “Ryan Murphy's vibrant film adaptation makes a closer-to-seamless whole of the story's disparate parts.” – Slant Magazine Dec 1, 2020 Full Review Soul (2020) 95% 2.5/4 “It's hard not to want Soul to be all about music, not just as metaphor but as the very real engine that drives the film's characters forward.” – Slant Magazine Nov 30, 2020 Full Review Ma Rainey's Black Bottom (2020) 97% 3/4 “Chadwick Boseman meticulously charts the breakdown of a man discovering, within the mirages of 1920s blackness, that pursuit and escape, fleeing from and running toward, are inextricably intertwined.” – Slant Magazine Nov 21, 2020 Full Review Come Away (2020) 29% 2/4 “The film can't seem to decide whether it's fantasy or allegory and whether its characters are fan fiction or flesh and blood.” – Slant Magazine Nov 12, 2020 Full Review Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey (2020) 91% 2.5/4 “The greatest gift offered by the film is an empowering world that looks less like invention and more like real life.” – Slant Magazine Nov 9, 2020 Full Review
