Warfare (2025)
93%
“The result is a film that’s effective but hard to recommend. Is it well made? Incredibly. Is it strongly acted? Indeed... Should you rush to the theater? That depends. It will undoubtedly make you feel awful … but that’s also sort of the point.” –

“Often “F*cktoys” goes for vibes over coherence and chaos over character development. And yet it undoubtedly makes you want to see whatever Sriram does next. ” –

It Ends (2025)
100%
B-
“There’s an intriguing nihilistic streak to the whole affair, but what comes before isn’t funny or insightful enough to warrant what is ultimately served up. It’s just sort of a joke on you for caring. And maybe that’s what the youth are al about. ” –

SNL50: The Anniversary Special (2025)

“The evening’s rundown suffered from a severe case of recency bias, with sketches that were more inclined to play it safe than honor the show’s extensive, complicated, and fascinating history.” –

You're Cordially Invited (2025)
48%
C+
“Stoller hamstrings himself by simply making the cast and the circumstances of the plot too big... Still, the movie succeeds when it’s just letting the talented goofs do their thing, and that’s a small win for a genre that needs it. ” –

“You have to orient yourself to the slow rhythms of the piece, which encourage you to relish in these quiet moments. But it’s an incredibly rewarding journey, a film indebted to the past that feels brilliantly alive. ” –

Selena y Los Dinos (2025)
93%
B+
“In her family members’ and her bandmates’ faces, you can see how raw their sorrow still is. But “Selena y Los Dinos” is no mere tribute, it is a vibrant argument for Selena’s humanity, as well as her status as a legend. ” –

“Perhaps most aggravating is the way “Love, Brooklyn” treats Brooklyn. For a movie that is ostensibly indebted to a place, it is a tourist’s view.” –

“What begins as a slow prodding of assumptions ultimately ends up a full throated condemnation of systems that would rather have disabled people die than invest in the healthcare required to enhance their lives. ” –

Two Women (2025)
95%
B-
“The screenplay by Catherine Léger is unfocused, and too reliant on topical buzzwords... However, Robichaud keeps the plot chugging, and engages her viewer with her gauzy images and her adoration for the performances by Leboeuf and Gonthier-Hyndman.” –

Saturday Night (2024)

“Saturday Night moves quickly and looks good, trying to approximate a gritty ’70s milieu, but it also feels strangely hollow, because it never establishes why we should care about its characters beyond the institution we know they went on to create.” –

It Ends With Us (2024)
