Mama Bears (2022)
87%
“The romance of Jocelyn and Tedros, in this early phase, isn’t quite intriguing, just overwhelming. Before she even meets Tedros, Jocelyn is already a host to so many parasites.” –

“As wild as this sounds on paper, in Tetris, the dispute is too tedious to appreciate.” –

No Time to Die (2021)
83%
“Craig exits the franchise having earned a great deal of goodwill in the role despite a mixed record...he exits on a high note in No Time to Die, and that's more than you can say for Sean Connery in Never Say Never Again and Brosnan in Die Another Day...” –

91%

Zola (2020)
88%
“Despite the fun expressiveness of the original viral posts, the film adaptation turns Zola into an everywoman, and thus makes room for the average viewer to inhabit the situation.” –

Matangi/Maya/M.I.A. (2018)
90%
“Matangi / Maya / M.I.A. presents M.I.A. as a rare and wasted asset: a woman who may have picked some loud and stupid fights, but for far more righteous purposes than messy celebrity entertainers typically offer.” –

BlacKkKlansman (2018)
96%
“BlacKkKlansman is largely comedy, but even in the movie's most dramatic stretches, Lee robs the Klan and its many costumed peers of their mystical designs. The horrors are real. The politics are farce.” –

The First Purge (2018)
55%
“As political allegory, The First Purge is delightfully excruciating...It's the politics of the purge that provide the movie's unique tension.” –

Sorry to Bother You (2018)
93%
“Boots Riley disavows subtlety at every turn, and his movie is better off for this decision-Sorry to Bother You synthesizes the incisive and the ludicrous to yield the funkiest possible allegory. It's a class satire without peer in its decade.” –

The Problem With Apu (2017)
90%
“Ideally, the stakes of Kondabolu's documentary are higher than just the future of The Simpsons or Hank Azaria's esteem...unfortunately, Kondabolu stops short of imagining a better version of The Simpsons or a world beyond Apu.” –

Death Note (2017)
36%
“Essentially, Death Note is a serialized detective drama in which two strange wise guys face off to prove their superior wits. It's not that deep.” –

Can't Stop, Won't Stop: A Bad Boy Story (2017)
40%
“As a record-label history lesson, Can't Stop, Won't Stop is incomplete. As a concert doc, it's a rough ride for the viewer.” –
