A Christmas Karen (2022) “Beyond the film hitting all the right spots, there is also a deeply humanistic take in how it explores how hurt people often hurt people.” – Common Sense Media Mar 11, 2025 Full Review Larissa: The Other Side of Anitta (2025) “While documentaries deal in alleged objectivity and often demand distance between the subject and filmmaker, this film about Brazilian superstar Anitta breaks the rule.” – Common Sense Media Mar 11, 2025 Full Review Umjolo: There Is No Cure (2025) “Although the films in the Umjolo series have not been the best in terms of overall quality, the fourth installment breaks the cycle and is a lovely and deceptively smart romantic drama. ” – Common Sense Media Mar 11, 2025 Full Review All Hallows' Eve (2013) “It's likely that younger viewers, just like the kids in the film, might want a taste of the thrills in the film, which in return are likely to haunt their nightmares, so watching with caution is advisable. ” – Common Sense Media Mar 4, 2025 Full Review Story & Pictures By (2023) “ Just like the greatest picture books, the documentary Story & Pictures By conveys this spirit.” – Common Sense Media Mar 4, 2025 Full Review Umjolo: My Beginning, My End! (2025) “Younger viewers are unlikely to be invested and adults might indulge only if they're looking for easy escapism.” – Common Sense Media Feb 20, 2025 Full Review Number 24 (2024) 100% “Based on the real-life story of Norwegian hero Gunnar Sønsteby, director John Andreas Andersen delivers a gripping, often violent thriller that highlights the best and worst of humankind.” – Common Sense Media Feb 12, 2025 Full Review Chronicles of a Wandering Saint (2023) 100% A- “Tomás Gómez Bustillo’s dramedy transported me to those strange nights [when I was a kid going to Holy Week processions in Tegucigalpa, Honduras] where the worlds of the dead and the living seemed to become one.” – The Film Stage Jan 17, 2025 Full Review Rita (2024) 89% “By no means an easy film to watch, this Guatemalan drama has one of the most powerful messages of any film about child abuse in recent years. ” – Common Sense Media Dec 9, 2024 Full Review Transmitzvah (2024) “The tale will most likely be inspirational for people of all ages, who in Mumy will find a heroine for the ages. ” – Common Sense Media Dec 9, 2024 Full Review Daddy's Head (2024) 85% “Despite its terrible title, this is an elegant horror flick with unexpected twists and turns. ” – Common Sense Media Dec 9, 2024 Full Review Outside (2024) 80% “But Outside takes too long to make its point, and by the time we learn where the director is headed, the amount of zombie limbs, guts, and decapitations we have seen might be too much for us to want to keep watching.” – Common Sense Media Nov 26, 2024 Full Review Umjolo: The Gone Girl (2024) “This fast-paced, melodramatic romantic comedy has more twists and turns than a detective mystery, but they are all grounded by a terrific performance by Shezi Sibongiseni as Lethu. ” – Common Sense Media Nov 26, 2024 Full Review Let Go (2024) “But halfway through, Let Go reveals a melodramatic, manipulative approach that makes it an exercise in how to lose the sympathy of your viewers.” – Common Sense Media Nov 26, 2024 Full Review The Lost Children (2024) 4/5 “The documentary is worth it if only to see how the filmmakers explain how the children survived in the jungle. Using elements that seem pulled out a fairy tale, they craft one of the most wondrous moments of any film released recently.” – Common Sense Media Nov 21, 2024 Full Review Bangkok Breaking: Heaven and Hell (2024) “Although the film is executed wonderfully in technical terms, it becomes muddled and exhausting while trying to be entertaining and delivering a powerful message. ” – Common Sense Media Nov 13, 2024 Full Review The Man Who Loved UFOs (2024) 64% “But whenever the camera focuses on him, he delivers a spectacle that's both deeply human and out of this world.” – Common Sense Media Nov 12, 2024 Full Review MadS (2024) 93% “A virtuosic opening sequence quickly descends into repetitive chaos in David Moreau's one-take zombie thriller.” – Common Sense Media Oct 25, 2024 Full Review Trouble (2024) “Fans of a good Hitchcock throwback will find themselves in movie heaven with this fast-paced Swedish thriller with comedic undertones. ” – Common Sense Media Oct 25, 2024 Full Review Disco, Ibiza, Locomia (2024) “Fast-paced and splattered with outlandish visual touches, the film delivers its message of tolerance, acceptance, and LGBTQI+ rights without lionizing the characters, instead showing them as flawed human beings overcome by the temptations of fame.” – Common Sense Media Sep 25, 2024 Full Review Sector 36 (2024) 47% “In his directorial debut, Aditya Nimbalkar commits the rookie mistake of stuffing his film with too many intentions that confuse rather than enlighten viewers. ” – Common Sense Media Sep 25, 2024 Full Review They Shot the Piano Player (2023) 78% “ Infused with profound melancholy, the film might appeal more to parents, but its passionate storytelling might spark curiosity in younger viewers who will undoubtedly find how bossa nova influenced some of the music they jam to today.” – Common Sense Media Aug 27, 2024 Full Review Simón (2023) 92% “Films dealing with current political crises are always in peril of becoming overly biased or didactic. What Simón director Diego Vicentini beautifully achieves is focusing on the story of one individual.” – Common Sense Media Jul 17, 2024 Full Review The Courier (2024) “Despite its constant thrills, Daniel Calparsoro's The Courier isn't likely to leave a mark once its credits roll. ” – Common Sense Media May 29, 2024 Full Review S.W.A.T.: Under Siege (2017) “ To call the twists surprising, instead of preposterous, would be trying too hard to find some value in this film.” – Common Sense Media May 19, 2024 Full Review
