Warfare (2025)

Julie Keeps Quiet (2024)
91%
“The premise...could easily turn into something obvious and preachy. But the view director Leonardo Van Dijl offers keeps us always focused on the individual.” –

A Working Man (2025)
49%
“While it’s a bit too densely plotted, leading to an unnecessarily long runtime, the almost giddy self-awareness and solid action make A Working Man another hypercliche winner for Statham and Ayer.” –

Dooba Dooba (2024)
“Dooba Dooba is something truly special: an inventive and thrilling found footage movie that proves the sub-genre still has room for formal growth and one of the most deeply troubling horror movies of the last decade.” –

“Tiger Stripes may not have a very original premise, but it delivers a beautiful and incisive story of the monstrous feminine that can stand alongside the great films that came before, and deserves to be just as celebrated.” –

Sweet Relief (2023)
“A masterfully anxiety-inducing look at how the internet has only made the darkness of the suburbs darker...an indictment of the kinds of people who make the real violence enacted against others into something purely abstract.” –

NoClip (2024)
“It's not scary, it's not funny, there's no narrative, it's not a documentary, it's not really anything, and yet, just like the spaces the film seeks to explore; there's something fascinating about it.” –

Captain America: Brave New World (2025)

“The...thoughtful treatment of Blackness and solid...action thriller elements are worth something, but they don't outweigh the sense that the film is meant to pacify any potentially galvanizing political feeling in American audiences.” –
