Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977) 94% “Star Wars is for anyone who ever worried about Dorothy on the Yellow Brick Road, who ever cheered Errol Flynn as he battled Basil Rathbone, who ever believed in the magic of movies. Star Wars is a masterpiece. ” – The Times (Shreveport, LA) Apr 22, 2025 Full Review Remaining Native (2025) “Director Paige Bethman’s film succeeds as both an inspiring coming-of-age story and impactful history lesson.” – Variety Mar 28, 2025 Full Review Last Take: Rust and the Story of Halyna (2025) 83% “Director Rachel Mason’s Hulu documentary about her late friend is evenhanded and impactful in its pursuit of truth beyond tabloid headlines.” – Variety Mar 12, 2025 Full Review The Comeback Trail (2020) 33% “ I laughed unashamedly throughout the entire film. But your mileage may vary.” – Variety Mar 5, 2025 Full Review Cold Wallet (2024) 66% “A shrewd and suspenseful thriller about three would-be working-class vigilantes determined to retrieve their investments from an amoral scammer.” – Variety Feb 28, 2025 Full Review Green and Gold (2025) 67% “Very little of what happens in “Green and Gold” can accurately be described as surprising.” – Variety Feb 1, 2025 Full Review Free Leonard Peltier (2025) “Directors Jesse Short Bull (“Lakota Nation vs. the United States”) and David France (“Welcome to Chechnya”) methodically fashion a potent history lesson that also is a compelling and complete portrait of Peltier.” – Variety Jan 28, 2025 Full Review Brave the Dark (2023) 74% “A low-key inspirational indie that sensitively elicits empathy and sympathy without ever pushing too hard or simplifying complexities.” – Variety Jan 24, 2025 Full Review The Critic (2023) 52% “Ian McKellen balances desperation and laughs in this splendid mix of bitchy mirth and melodrama.” – Variety Jan 14, 2025 Full Review The Performance (2024) 70% “Director Shira Piven’s impressive adaptation and expansion of a 2002 Arthur Miller short story offers timely observations about manipulating masses.” – Variety Jan 9, 2025 Full Review Homestead (2024) 46% “Impressive performances and production value enable Ben Smallbone’s indie thriller to generate a substantial amount of suspense.” – Variety Dec 20, 2024 Full Review Missing from Fire Trail Road (2024) 100% “A dark cloud of melancholy and despondency hangs over “Missing From Fire Trail Road” — and not just figuratively.” – Variety Dec 9, 2024 Full Review Sabrina (1995) 61% “The new "Sabrina" is an enchanting romantic comedy with the magic of a fairy tale, but also with the poignance of a broken heart.” – The Moving Picture Show Nov 27, 2024 Full Review Bonhoeffer: Pastor. Spy. Assassin. (2024) 67% “Dassler shrewdly portrays Bonhoeffer with carefully calibrated measures of zeal, sincerity, boldness and, on occasion, terror.” – Variety Nov 22, 2024 Full Review Lost on a Mountain in Maine (2024) 53% “Despite its predictability and stretches of pokey pacing, director Andrew Boodhoo Kightlinger’s drama remains engrossing throughout.” – Variety Nov 1, 2024 Full Review Carville: Winning Is Everything, Stupid (2024) 100% “It helps a lot that “Carville: Winning Is Everything, Stupid” intersperses scenes depicting the high drama of the 2024 presidential race with the relentless evolution of Carville from political neophyte to indefatigable kingmaker.” – Variety Oct 12, 2024 Full Review Rez Ball (2024) 94% “Cheers to a game well played by hall-of-fame-level players on both sides of the camera.” – Cowboys & Indians Magazine Sep 8, 2024 Full Review Going Varsity in Mariachi (2023) 94% “This engaging and entertaining documentary about Texas high-schoolers playing for keeps in statewide mariachi band competitions has the right stuff to delight even viewers who normally wouldn’t know the difference between a grito and a guitarrón.” – Variety Aug 30, 2024 Full Review Reagan (2024) 18% “There is a great deal more hagiography than history in “Reagan,” a worshipful biopic of the 40th U.S. President that often plays like the cinematic equivalent of CliffsNotes.” – Variety Aug 29, 2024 Full Review Crescent City (2024) 14% “Blockbuster store shelves used to be overburdened to the point of near-collapse with unremarkable trifles such as this.” – Variety Aug 16, 2024 Full Review Heart Strings (2024) “For all the offkey moments in this passably pleasant but utterly predictable indie, even some of the clichés resound with a faint but perceptible ring of truth.” – Variety Jul 1, 2024 Full Review Kalki 2898 AD (2024) 77% “[A] wildly uneven mashup of everything from Fritz Lang’s “Metropolis” to Marvel Comics movies, underpinned by elements from the Hindu epic poem “Mahabharata.”” – Variety Jun 29, 2024 Full Review Ride (2024) 71% “C. Thomas Howell and Forrie J. Smith give stand-out performances in director and star Jake Allyn’s suspenseful indie production.” – Variety Jun 14, 2024 Full Review Sight (2023) 76% “For all its predictability, “Sight” has a few surprises up its sleeve, especially when Wang discovers there’s more than one way to measure success or failure.” – Variety May 24, 2024 Full Review The Postman (1997) 14% “In synopsis, The Postman may sound like a blueprint for a Saturday Night Live comedy sketch. On screen, however, the weirdly compelling plot, taken from a novel by David Brin, is all the more affecting for being played perfectly straight.” – The Moving Picture Show May 14, 2024 Full Review
