Killing the Devil (1970) “Praised as inspiration for the Czech New Wave, "Murdering the Devil" exaggerates to skewer gender stereotypes as the woman feigns stupidity and the man nothing but indulgence.” – KDHX (St. Louis) Feb 24, 2025 Full Review The Seed of the Sacred Fig (2024) 97% “Rasoulof metaphorically addresses the Iranian crackdown on women who refuse to wear the hijab, but it casts its net wider, indicting those who cave to pressure, who lose all ethical behavior. ” – KDHX (St. Louis) Feb 3, 2025 Full Review Theater of Thought (2022) 73% “What's here is no more than an unfulfilling appetizer. Indeed, as a parting comment, Herzog says he leaves this inquiry more mystified than when he began. ” – KDHX (St. Louis) Feb 3, 2025 Full Review The Bloody Lady (1980) “Kubal eccentrically presents his unique, layered interpretation in cheerful, cartoonish manner suffused with gruesome moments.” – KDHX (St. Louis) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Lee (2023) 67% “"Lee" insists we all confront historical and contemporary events with Lee's empathy, a value critical for a better world.” – KDHX (St. Louis) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Wolf Man (2025) 50% “It’s told so minimally and efficiently that by the end... What remains is a lean little treat.” – KDHX (St. Louis) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Youth (Homecoming) (2024) 94% “Bing samples a few of the 18,000 workshops, employing over 300,000 migrant garment workers, adopting a fly-on-the-wall approach to the oppressive living conditions and minimum wage jobs.” – KDHX (St. Louis) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Youth (Hard Times) (2024) 93% “Living the hours of "Youth" brings this hard scrabble world to life and reminds me how fortunate we are in our comforts.” – KDHX (St. Louis) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Nickel Boys (2024) 91% “Technically innovative, emphasizing audience's subjective viewing experience, Ross insists on a first-person point-of-view for the first third of the film, segueing to some more conventional compositions in later scenes. ” – KDHX (St. Louis) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review The Last Showgirl (2024) 83% “With Andrew Wyatt's music, including "Beautiful That Way" sung by Miley Cyrus, the cinematic harmony of all the elements delivers a unified, powerful portrait of this showgirl's life, a rather sad one at this point in her career. ” – KDHX (St. Louis) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review The Room Next Door (2024) 81% “This philosophically and emotionally rich film summons feelings and thoughts that occur late at night or under trying circumstances; Why? For what? To what end? It beautifully asks and answers those questions and more.” – KDHX (St. Louis) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Hard Truths (2024) 95% “In a magnificent, courageous performance, Marianne Jean-Baptiste manages to reveal Pansy's pain amidst her outbursts.” – KDHX (St. Louis) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review September 5 (2024) 93% “Over fifty years later, the painful shock and intense horror of this first live terrorist broadcast has not diminished. ” – KDHX (St. Louis) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Better Man (2024) 88% “These deliriously energetic sequences propel the story, but its heart remains the turmoil of Robbie's life, and that stirs the soul in this fresh, innovative way to present a musical biopic. ” – KDHX (St. Louis) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl (2024) 100% “To be sure, as with the best comedies, the sugar-coated amusement, rather like Norbot, disguises a pointed critique of the real world.” – KDHX (St. Louis) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Agent of Happiness (2024) 95% “Ironically, some individuals who adamantly pursue "happiness" find it an elusive achievement. A more successful approach to this life-affirming state is illuminated in directors Arun Bhattarai and Dorottya Zurbó's documentary "Agent of Happiness."” – KDHX (St. Louis) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review All We Imagine as Light (2024) 100% “"All We Imagine as Light" tells three women's interconnected stories, each specific, deeply moving, and universally relevant. ” – KDHX (St. Louis) Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Babygirl (2024) 76% “So while it is gratifying to have the sexual vitality of middle-aged women acknowledged, "Babygirl's" offensive representation devoid of complexity and its insulting characterization of this executive can only feel regressive.” – KDHX (St. Louis) Dec 24, 2024 Full Review A Traveler's Needs (2024) 81% “While the lives captured may appear random and superficial, Hong effects a poignant examination of values and behavior” – KDHX (St. Louis) Dec 24, 2024 Full Review A Complete Unknown (2024) 82% “Mangold avoids formulaic pitfalls of the tired musical biopics while also capturing Dylan's real appeal—atypical lyrics, his singular vocal delivery, and his, at best, brooding, conflicted presence in the spotlight.” – KDHX (St. Louis) Dec 24, 2024 Full Review The Fire Inside (2024) 93% “Morrison palpably communicates the drab, hard scrabble world of home and gym locations: the smell of the ring, the kitchen, the dreary Flint weather, and the joy of fierce competition. ” – KDHX (St. Louis) Dec 24, 2024 Full Review Nocturnes (2024) 93% “Immersing viewers quietly for a mesmerizing eight-three minutes, "Nocturnes" encourages greater, deep appreciation of this too-often overlooked, but invaluable, small, beautiful insect.” – KDHX (St. Louis) Dec 24, 2024 Full Review Three Wishes for Cinderella (1973) “"Three Wishes for Cinderella" reinterprets the familiar fairy tale, presenting the attractive servant as a spunky animal whisperer.” – KDHX (St. Louis) Dec 24, 2024 Full Review Maria (2024) 75% “The density of the visuals, music, and sound, of the space that often dwarfs Maria, and of her conflicted self makes this a fitting tribute to Maria Callas.” – KDHX (St. Louis) Dec 24, 2024 Full Review Bird (2024) 86% “[Andrea Arnold] leavens the struggles of twelve-year-old Bailey with a welcome infusion of fanciful, magical realism in the figure of title character Bird.” – KDHX (St. Louis) Dec 24, 2024 Full Review
