Eraserhead (1977) 87% “Eraserhead's not a movie I'd drop acid for, although I would consider it a revolutionary act if someone dropped a reel of it into the middle of Star Wars. ” – Village Voice Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Green Border (2023) 93% “Similarly devoid of nuance, its moral reckoning accentuated by brilliant black-and-white cinematography, Green Border is a visceral ordeal and virtuoso tumult.” – The New York Review of Books Jan 15, 2025 Full Review Henry Fonda for President (2024) 90% “Alexander Horwath’s erudite, entertaining three-hour meta-biopic.” – Artforum Oct 9, 2024 Full Review Alien Resurrection (1997) 55% “At least Alien 3 had intimations of mythological grandeur. Too tepid to be satire, "Resurrection" has reached the point of diminishing returns. ” – Village Voice Aug 6, 2024 Full Review Spaceballs (1987) 52% “The spirit of desecration rules Mel Brooks’s Spaceballs. Buoyant, unsentimental low comedy, this manic Star Wars parody is continually vulgar without ever seeming smarmy.” – Village Voice Apr 3, 2024 Full Review Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World (2023) 97% “Indeed, given Jude’s willingness to engage with (or disinclination to disengage from) the cyber-powered second life, Do Not Expect is more despairing if even funnier than Bad Luck Banging.” – The Nation Mar 30, 2024 Full Review Forrest Gump (1994) 75% “There's an undeniable kick to the idea of recapitulating to the Boomerography as a tale told by an idiot, but the thrill inexorably fades.” – Village Voice Mar 1, 2024 Full Review Pulp Fiction (1994) 92% “More than anything else, Quentin Tarantino is a spinner of tall tales—the superbly garrulous, living embodiment of the movie enthusiast’s hey-wouldn’t-it-be-great-if... aesthetic.” – Village Voice Feb 29, 2024 Full Review Yambao (1957) - - “Deliriously trashy...fueled by the star’s mad conviction, Yambaó is a movie made for Jack Smith...” – Artforum Jan 27, 2024 Full Review Sensualidad (1951) - - “Feistier than most and strikingly progressive in her class and gender solidarity...” – Artforum Jan 27, 2024 Full Review Aventurera (1950) - - “López is an actress of taste.” – Artforum Jan 27, 2024 Full Review Maria Candelaria (1944) 92% “Pictorial big-sky melodrama...” – Artforum Jan 27, 2024 Full Review Salón Mexico (1949) - - “...a classic cabaretera, detailing the self-effacing Stella Dallas–like martyrdom of a dime-a-dance fichera...” – Artforum Jan 27, 2024 Full Review Rio Escondido (1947) - - “Fernández and Figueroa proved equally adept in the nocturnal realm of smoky dives and neon-illuminated back alleys.” – Artforum Jan 27, 2024 Full Review Victims of Sin (1950) 100% “A tumultuous product of Mexican cinema's Golden Age, the movie is a perfect storm, the confluence of three huge talents.” – Artforum Jan 27, 2024 Full Review Tie Xi Qu: West of the Tracks (2002) - - “A three-part, nine-hour look at the painful decline of a once-thriving industrial zone...Wang has immersed himself in the lives of migrant workers...” – The Nation Nov 10, 2023 Full Review Youth (Spring) (2023) 86% “The prolific director examines how the People’s Republic became the workshop for much of the world.” – The Nation Nov 10, 2023 Full Review Three Sisters (2012) 100% “Wang’s magnificent 2012 portrait of young children in a subsistence-level village in Yunnan province...” – The Nation Nov 10, 2023 Full Review Traffic (2000) 93% “Traffic is exemplary Hollywood social realism. ” – Village Voice Sep 7, 2023 Full Review Spirited Away (2001) 96% “Its funny, inexplicable transformations are closer to vintage Fleischer Bros than Disney.” – Village Voice Jul 17, 2023 Full Review Mulholland Dr. (2001) 84% “Mulholland Drive is thrilling and ludicrous. The movie feels entirely instinctual.” – Village Voice Jul 11, 2023 Full Review Back to the Future (1985) 93% “This sci-fi blending of American Graffiti and It’s a Wonderful Life is the kind of movie that, try as you might to avoid it, you'll end up ingesting by osmosis anyway.” – Village Voice Jun 27, 2023 Full Review Unrest (2022) 86% “The tranquility is accentuated by the soft murmur of voices, the sound of wind in the trees, and the natural-light cinematography. Unrest’s pastoral quality recalls mid-period Straub-Huillet films...” – The Nation Jun 21, 2023 Full Review The Color Purple (1985) 73% “What’s most shocking about this film is not how sentimental it is, it’s how inept. The valentine comes apart in your hands.” – Village Voice May 25, 2023 Full Review EO (2022) 96% “The beasts give EO an authenticity beyond human acting, without the trappings of rational meaning. Behind the veil of Skolimowski’s bravura technique, life simply is.” – The Nation Jan 3, 2023 Full Review
