The Straight Story (1999) 95% “Sometimes a director’s best film and maybe even their most characteristic, if you really think about it, is the one you might least expect, as can be the surprising nature of auteurism. ” – Chicago Reader Apr 25, 2025 Full Review Pilgrim, Farewell (1982) “Each time Kate lashes out at those around her is more frustrating and heart-wrenching than the last, the emotional momentum of such a situation careening only toward the inevitable. ” – Chicago Reader Apr 25, 2025 Full Review Grand Tour (2024) 91% “Gomes doesn’t undercut the romance... instead, he leans into its petulance, allowing the formal ambiguity of the nonnarrative sections to suggest the possibility of another interpretation entirely.” – Chicago Reader Apr 14, 2025 Full Review Black Bag (2025) 96% “Soderbergh handles ensemble casts well, forming a constellation rather than centering any single person as a lodestar.” – Chicago Reader Mar 20, 2025 Full Review Eephus (2024) 100% “The game, which goes into long overtime, composes the duration, and not much of note takes place; rather, the significance is the film and the field’s looming cessation.” – Chicago Reader Mar 20, 2025 Full Review On Becoming a Guinea Fowl (2024) 100% “There’s a quiet conviction to the proceedings, letting the hypocrisy and resultant upheaval speak for themselves, with a bit of humor to highlight and temper the dark absurdity.” – Chicago Reader Mar 17, 2025 Full Review American Sniper (2014) 72% “I don’t know that it accomplishes the same covert intricacy as some other Eastwood films, but it was interesting to revisit.” – Chicago Reader Mar 4, 2025 Full Review Flow (2024) 97% “I found the simplicity of its story, about a group of animals in the wake of a great flood (and with no humans around, eliciting a discomfiting, postapocalyptic vibe), to be profoundly moving. ” – Chicago Reader Feb 21, 2025 Full Review Nickel Boys (2024) 91% “Based on Colson Whitehead’s 2019 novel, Ross’s adaptation is a poetical rendering of its subject matter. ” – Chicago Reader Feb 13, 2025 Full Review Love Torn in Dream (2000) “Love Torn in a Dream is pure, unadulterated nonsense of the extremely fun variety.” – Chicago Reader Feb 13, 2025 Full Review Bringing Up Baby (1938) 97% “It’s a wild ride, with Cary Grant as a paleontologist, Hepburn as a zany heiress—and a leopard, the baby of the film’s title. Does it necessarily make sense? No. Is it brilliant in spite of that? Indeed.” – Chicago Reader Feb 13, 2025 Full Review Flight Risk (2025) 30% “The plot and runtime had me hoping it’d be a throwaway of the Edgar G. Ulmer variety, but alas, it’s kind of a mess, made worse by the Mark Wahlberg character’s indiscriminate sadism.” – Chicago Reader Feb 13, 2025 Full Review One of Them Days (2025) 94% “Keke Palmer and SZA have incredible presences by themselves and out-of-this-world chemistry together.” – Chicago Reader Feb 7, 2025 Full Review The Great Dictator (1940) 92% “Chaplin’s iconic speech at the end of the film is only too relevant nowadays.” – Chicago Reader Feb 7, 2025 Full Review The Last Letter (2002) “At just over an hour long, it builds steadily, going through a range of emotions with limited inflection on the part of Samie.” – Chicago Reader Feb 7, 2025 Full Review The Last Showgirl (2024) 83% “Is it possible to love a film you don’t really like? That’s how I feel about The Last Showgirl. Great story, amazing cast (hopefully the Pamela Anderson renaissance has only just begun), but lackluster direction.” – Chicago Reader Jan 16, 2025 Full Review Hard Truths (2024) 95% “I’d qualify this as minor Leigh but with major performances; as the antagonistic protagonist Pansy, Marianne Jean-Baptiste (previously acclaimed for her role in Leigh’s 1996 film Secrets & Lies) is hilarious and heartbreaking.” – Chicago Reader Jan 16, 2025 Full Review The Color of Pomegranates (1969) 94% “It feels at once specific to a certain time—presumably that of its subject, 18th-century Armenian poet Sayat-Nova—but still timeless, either of all time or none with which we’d be familiar.” – Chicago Reader Jan 16, 2025 Full Review Juror #2 (2024) 93% “In keeping with his late-era films, Eastwood isn’t playing devil’s advocate, but rather a modern-day philosopher, daring to challenge where many look for affirmation. If this is indeed Clint’s last hurrah, it’d be as good as any to end on.” – Chicago Reader Nov 11, 2024 Full Review Jaws (1975) 97% “Infinitely watchable...” – Chicago Reader Oct 24, 2024 Full Review Hell's Ground (2007) 100% “Of the new-to-me films, I enjoyed Omar Ali Khan's 2007 Pakistani horror film Zibahkhana.” – Chicago Reader Oct 24, 2024 Full Review Craig's Wife (1936) 100% “The personal is certainly political, and collaboration is key. ” – Chicago Reader Oct 3, 2024 Full Review Take Off (1972) “...her most well-known work, which, like Stripper, confronts the male gaze in appropriately impudent ways...” – Chicago Reader Oct 3, 2024 Full Review Megalopolis (2024) 45% “I liked it—it has what’s missing from contemporary multiplex fare: originality, ambition, mettle. And that’s what I turn to Coppola for.” – Chicago Reader Oct 3, 2024 Full Review A Question of Silence (1982) 92% “A discrete, high-concept story...” – Chicago Reader Sep 4, 2024 Full Review
