Stray Dolls (2019) 70% 3/5 “Sinha, in addition to emphasizing the harried bond of her feminine tag team drenched in decadent turmoil, shines a revealing spotlight on blue-collar working class drudgery in all its puddles of purgatory.” – Flick Feast Apr 11, 2020 Full Review Butt Boy (2019) 71% 2/5 “...about as cheeky as a quarantined outhouse. Painfully contrived and methodically doltish, Butt Boy strives for its validation of absurd fanny fun but this comedic crapper definitely needs its behind spanked.” – Flick Feast Apr 10, 2020 Full Review System Crasher (2019) 94% 4/5 “...startling and grippingly raw portrait of childhood monstrosity. Zengel's furious face is resourcefully inspired as her walking wounded minor is a major firecracker with atom bomb-like capabilities.” – Flick Feast Apr 10, 2020 Full Review Never Rarely Sometimes Always (2020) 99% 4.5/5 “Solidly acted and restrained in its thought-provoking resonance, Hittman's quiet commentary on young female empowerment is tranquil and engaging in its message of disenchantment.” – Flick Feast Apr 8, 2020 Full Review Big Time Adolescence (2019) 86% 2.5/5 “Unfairly, Big Time Adolescence suffers from the standard formula of routine coming-of-age comedies that follow the predictable pattern of snarky amusement and surfacing angst.” – Flick Feast Apr 7, 2020 Full Review Clemency (2019) 92% 4/5 “Chukwu creatively establishes a totally distinctive brand of somber female empowerment in a penetrating character study of professional disconnect and consciousness...aided by Woodard's profoundly convincing performance” – Flick Feast Apr 5, 2020 Full Review The Captain (2019) 75% 3.5/5 “...[a] hair-raising, high-in-the-sky action thriller. Lau's action-adventure spectacle that feels as unapologetically loose and unrestrained as a defective seat belt.” – Flick Feast Apr 3, 2020 Full Review Stray (2018) 100% 4/5 “Stray is simply contemplative and resoundingly lyrical in representing two kinds of nature set against one another: pained human nature and the Great Outdoors joined at the emotional hip” – Flick Feast Apr 1, 2020 Full Review I Still Believe (2020) 50% 2/5 “Although it aims to illustrate savory vibes of an uplifting higher power melodrama, from its pulpit the Erwin brothers simply muster up a sluggish Christian romancer that does not have a prayer.” – The Critical Movie Critics Apr 1, 2020 Full Review Banana Split (2018) 89% 3.5/5 “...[an] unconventionally perceptive and engaging coming-of-age female friendship/romancer. Inherently touching and liberating, Banana Split is an endearing account of cemented youthful female relations” – Flick Feast Mar 29, 2020 Full Review Onward (2020) 88% 3.5/5 “Onward is speculative in its whimsy concoction as an increasingly impish supernatural gem that offers charm and treasured wizardly at its escapist core.” – Flick Feast Mar 27, 2020 Full Review Loqueesha (2019) 0% 1/5 “...embarrassing and abominable. Utterly imbecilic and indigestible, Loqueesha is a rancid stain for all that participated in this flatulent farce” – Flick Feast Mar 24, 2020 Full Review Spenser Confidential (2020) 35% 1/5 “...[a] witless cop caper...this charmless action-comedy suspense piece will result in yet another disposable salt-and-pepper buddy flick aiming for low rent chuckles.” – The Critical Movie Critics Mar 24, 2020 Full Review Bloodshot (2020) 32% 2/5 “...relentlessly convoluted. The bio-engineered banality featured in Diesel's vanity film project will make one's weary eyes reflect this indulgent action thriller's movie title.” – Flick Feast Mar 18, 2020 Full Review The Hunt (2020) 57% 2.5/5 “...[a] shoddy survivalist exploitation flick...not grounded in depth or dimension to give this blurry slice-and-dice suspense piece any genuine meaty intrigue beyond its choppy pokes at exaggerated blood spats and occasional schlocky chuckles.” – Flick Feast Mar 15, 2020 Full Review The Way Back (2020) 85% 4/5 “...a golden three-point shot. Thoroughly convincing and hitting close to home. Both harrowing and heartfelt, The Way Back is definitely a slam dunk for Affleck” – Flick Feast Mar 11, 2020 Full Review Burden (2018) 49% 2.5/5 “...a compelling but seemingly trite tension tale. Redemption expositions are cozy and thought-provoking in concept but nicely wrapped feel-good fables such as Burden seem to be holding back the realness of its provoked outrage.” – Flick Feast Mar 8, 2020 Full Review Swallow (2019) 88% 4/5 “Swallow certainly echoes the intricate tendencies of a feminine lost soul left to her hidden mental devices. Absorbing, contemplative and probing...low-key but potent in its dramatic portrait” – Flick Feast Mar 7, 2020 Full Review Cane River (1982) 100% 4/5 “Rich in resonance and thoroughly revealing in its absolute truth, writer-director Jenkins delivered an absorbing black romancer that delves into the psyche of blackness and belonging.” – The Critical Movie Critics Feb 29, 2020 Full Review The Jesus Rolls (2019) 20% 2.5/5 “However, The Jesus Rolls throws a gutterball down the farcical greasy lane in an unimaginative sex buddy road flick where the thin-layered juvenile raunchiness is a strikeout of the unwanted kind.” – Flick Feast Feb 28, 2020 Full Review Impractical Jokers: The Movie (2020) 36% 2/5 “Ultimately, this cruel impractical joke is on all of us...is about as amusing as sitting on a whoppie cushion filled with chocolate filling.” – Flick Feast Feb 27, 2020 Full Review Brahms: The Boy II (2020) 11% 1.5/5 “Clearly, naughty Brahms from 2016's The Boy needed more of a supernatural spanking than he does a needless follow-up in a dull and creepy cornball sequel...the belabored subpar chills that aimlessly wallow in manufactured weirdness and waste.” – Flick Feast Feb 24, 2020 Full Review Seberg (2019) 36% 2.5/5 “...ambitious but thoroughly disjointed psychological thriller biopic . Both Stewart and her vulnerable inspiration Jean Seberg deserved a better deep dive than this tiptoe through the surfacing waves of despair and disillusionment.” – Flick Feast Feb 21, 2020 Full Review Buffaloed (2019) 80% 3.5/5 “Wexler's bubbly blue-collar comedy Buffaloed is a wacky Valentine ode to the chilly upstate New York-based enclave. An unconventional character study that wants to reach for every nuanced nugget it sends out.” – Flick Feast Feb 17, 2020 Full Review Blumhouse's Fantasy Island (2020) 8% 1.5/5 “What's next? Perhaps Love Boat with sea-sick passengers? How about Hotel with extra pushy guests? Or maybe Finders of Lost Loves with alarming divorce rates? [A] whimsical waste of a pointless reboot.” – Flick Feast Feb 15, 2020 Full Review
