The Teacher (2023) 82% “The Teacher, in its best stretches, captures the intimate horrors of life under harrowing circumstances -- and the lifesaving power of the relationships that people still manage to forge and nurture.” – The Atlantic Apr 15, 2025 Full Review Mufasa: The Lion King (2024) 56% “The main lesson of Mufasa is a far less generative one: Even the most talented director can’t make someone else’s unoriginal idea shine.” – The Atlantic Dec 23, 2024 Full Review The Piano Lesson (2024) 88% “Netflix’s adaptation faithfully renders this concern for the quotidian, albeit with a more stylish patina. Malcolm’s directorial choices diverge from his father’s old-school creative sensibilities; the pacing is faster, the music more dramatic.” – The Atlantic Dec 10, 2024 Full Review It Ends With Us (2024) 54% “To young people who have become inured to the misery of modern life, there’s a seductive premise in these novels: Relentless suffering can give way to freedom if women want it badly enough. On-screen, performed by real people, it’s not as convincing.” – The Atlantic Aug 12, 2024 Full Review Babes (2024) 88% “Babes isn’t perfect, but its refreshing candor still feels like an R-rated public service.” – The Atlantic May 20, 2024 Full Review Bob Marley: One Love (2024) 43% “His music and ideas—and all the people who helped usher them into this fractured world—deserve better.” – The Atlantic Feb 19, 2024 Full Review Mean Girls (2024) 69% “Along the way, it loses the bite of its cinematic predecessor. The result is a painfully self-aware pastiche that fails to capture the acerbic magnetism of the original movie, the campy charm of musicals, or the real talent of its young cast.” – The Atlantic Jan 12, 2024 Full Review The Disappearance of Shere Hite (2023) 100% “Though its primary focus is Hite, who died in 2020, the documentary ends up making salient points about the precarity of feminist media across generations. ” – The Atlantic Dec 5, 2023 Full Review Bottoms (2023) 91% “For young people entering an uncertain era of their lives, watching that kind of judgment-free fluidity play out on-screen could easily feel as powerful as landing the perfect punch.” – The Atlantic Aug 26, 2023 Full Review Red, White & Royal Blue (2023) 75% “It’s earnest and easily watchable meme fodder that riffs on the classic enemies-to-lovers trope. And unlike some of its predecessors, it attempts to meaningfully situate its love story within the high-stakes arena of contemporary politics.” – The Atlantic Aug 10, 2023 Full Review Passages (2023) 95% “Unrelenting and frank, Passages captures the creeping discontents of its Fassbinder-lite protagonist without losing sight of how his transgressions affect those around him. ” – The Atlantic Aug 4, 2023 Full Review The League (2023) 96% “The League revels in its subjects’ athleticism and the dynamic style the players pioneered, which now defines contemporary baseball. That emphasis on their talent makes the film a delight to watch.” – The Atlantic Jul 13, 2023 Full Review I Care a Lot (2020) 79% “Though the film's final scene suggests a clear judgment of Marla's ethics, much of the preceding dialogue sets her up as the badass boss babe.” – The Atlantic Mar 2, 2021 Full Review Ma Rainey's Black Bottom (2020) 97% “The story concerns itself chiefly with the role of music in documenting and, in some cases, defusing the unspeakable pains that birthed the blues.” – The Atlantic Mar 2, 2021 Full Review Coastal Elites (2020) 57% “Coastal Elites' flaws begin with its uninspired screenplay and blandly written ensemble.” – The Atlantic Sep 14, 2020 Full Review Atlantics (2019) 96% “[It] deftly melds fantasy and romance in a complex portrait of migration.” – The Atlantic Dec 23, 2019 Full Review Sorry to Bother You (2018) 93% “Sorry to Bother You is as much a character-driven story about the gentrification of Oakland -- and the Bay Area writ large -- as it is an absurdist anti-capitalist fable.” – The Atlantic Sep 10, 2019 Full Review If Beale Street Could Talk (2018) 95% “Jenkins's If Beale Street Could Talk is a gorgeous, enveloping film -- and one of its most poignant triumphs is how vividly it captures the depth and complication of intimacy among its black characters.” – The Atlantic Sep 10, 2019 Full Review To All the Boys I've Loved Before (2018) 96% “Thrills in part because most viewers are all too familiar with what it feels like to baldly deny feelings for another person even as they become patently obvious to everyone else.” – The Atlantic Sep 10, 2019 Full Review Little (2019) 46% “Little is mostly a charming comedy with a killer soundtrack and heart to spare.” – The Atlantic Sep 10, 2019 Full Review Us (2019) 93% “A sharp, often funny meditation on the terrifying power of human connection.” – The Atlantic Sep 10, 2019 Full Review Falling Inn Love (2019) 71% “There are few surprises here, but plenty of revelations.” – The Atlantic Sep 10, 2019 Full Review Dave Chappelle: Sticks & Stones (2019) 42% “Sticks and Stones registers as a temper tantrum, the product of a man who wants it all -- money, fame, influence -- without much having to answer to anyone.” – The Atlantic Sep 10, 2019 Full Review The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks (2017) 69% “The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks stop short of directly indicting specific parties on the family's behalf. The resulting film is moving and accessible, but it offers no absolution.” – The Ringer Sep 10, 2019 Full Review The Lion King (2019) 51% “The Lion King captures just enough of the original's warmhearted excitement -- and introduces enough new delights -- to feel like more than a cynical Disney money grab.” – The Atlantic Sep 10, 2019 Full Review
