Gallagher (2024) “The filmmakers’ thoroughness digs up a few too many old grudges to fully reframe the comedian’s work as inspiring or misunderstood for newcomers. However, for longtime fans, this is certainly a must-see and a fitting swan song.” – POV Magazine Dec 11, 2024 Full Review Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story (2024) 98% “It may not leap buildings in a single bound, but it stands as the definitive account of Reeve’s legacy and will inspire fans of all kinds for decades to come.” – POV Magazine Oct 8, 2024 Full Review Really Happy Someday (2024) “J Stevens' feature debut, [Really Happy Someday], is a raw yet tender coming-of-gender portrait [that] feels like a product of the genre’s evolution.” – That Shelf Sep 23, 2024 Full Review Can I Get a Witness? (2024) 67% “[Can I Get a Witness's] conclusions are quietly audacious, making it one of the most fascinating and surprisingly life-affirming genre experiments in recent memory.” – That Shelf Sep 22, 2024 Full Review The Seed of the Sacred Fig (2024) 97% “Some films are about rebellions. It’s rare that a film is, in and of itself, a rebellion. All of this, and more, makes The Seed of the Sacred Fig a landmark.” – That Shelf Sep 22, 2024 Full Review The Ride Ahead (2024) “Dan and Samuel Habib will get more opportunities to carve out a formal sensibility for what disability cinema looks like from Samuel’s perspective, to the point that maybe Samuel will direct a film on his own.” – POV Magazine Jun 26, 2024 Full Review My Sextortion Diary (2024) 100% “It feels like a first of its kind, an autobiographical account on the state of online privacy, or lack thereof, using the very tools in which that privacy is often unwound.” – POV Magazine May 31, 2024 Full Review The Hobby (2024) 89% “From the eclectic crowds that populate gaming conventions like Gen Con to the designers behind beloved new-wave board games such as Wingspan and Sagrada, the allure of the subculture’s scope is quickly apparent.” – POV Magazine Apr 1, 2024 Full Review American Symphony (2023) 94% “[T]he film is plainly stated in its themes and styles and, as a result, suffers from a monotony that, while reflective of the film’s sobering perspective on life’s highs and lows, translates to an imperfect, if moving, final product.” – POV Magazine Nov 10, 2023 Full Review Igor Levit - No Fear (2022) “Although Levit is a consummate pianist, there is only so much one gains from seeing Levit perform over and over. It doesn’t help that a majority of these moments are blandly shot and edited, as can be said for the documentary as a whole...” – POV Magazine Oct 10, 2023 Full Review Ryuichi Sakamoto: Opus (2023) 100% “The film’s beautifully rendered final moments are the cinematic equivalent of his spirit being lifted from our earthly plain, capped off with one of Sakamoto’s favorite adages: Ars longa, vita brevis. Art is long, life is short. ” – POV Magazine Oct 10, 2023 Full Review Swan Song (2023) 86% “The film’s unremarkable verité cinematography does little to provide substance to its images, and its unruly focus tackles too many aspects of the production to feel succinct.” – That Shelf Sep 19, 2023 Full Review Backspot (2023) 87% “Waterson’s debut feature shows signs of a strong, stylistic voice at the helm of an otherwise conventional story. ” – That Shelf Sep 13, 2023 Full Review The Beanie Bubble (2023) 46% “... a satisfyingly funny stranger-than-fiction story told with plenty of gloss but not without an ounce of sadness and capitalist rage. ” – That Shelf Jul 28, 2023 Full Review January 6th (2022) 100% “" ... an unparalleled level of access gives audiences a view that’s as up-close and personal as they can get."” – That Shelf Dec 22, 2022 Full Review The People's Joker (2022) 96% “Vera Drew’s imaginative vision as a filmmaker and visual artist holds no bounds, and any DC fan worth their salt would be foolish to not give it the credence it rightfully has earned.” – That Shelf Sep 15, 2022 Full Review
