4/5
“Blanchart keeps the beat steady with a tight rhythm of tension and release, interspersing talky tense bits with bravura action, like a bike ride down the steps of an underground station. ” –

Chosen Family (2024)
3/5
“There aren’t exactly belly laughs in this tale of single yoga instructor Ann (Graham), but quite a few of zingers and bits that stick the landing nicely thanks to fluent direction and good comic timing from Graham and her excellent supporting cast.” –

Home Sweet Home: Rebirth (2025)
2/5
“The end result isn’t pretty, but as genre fare it’s at least energetic and Sperbund contributes a credible performance as Prang, one the film deserves.” –

A Goofy Movie (1995)
64%
“Although A Goofy Movie resurrects a major character of the Disney short cartoons of the 30s-50s - the gormless canine star, Goofy - viewers expecting a nostalgic recreation of the old-fashioned, small-town world he once lived in are in for a shock.” –

Black Cab (2024)

3/5
“Although this British horror flick gets a little muddy in strictly narrative terms with its tricky shifts in viewpoint, it’s rich enough in ideas and strong performances as well as running a blessedly crisp 88 minutes, that any flaws are easily forgiven. ” –

Sew Torn (2024)

2/5
“Like the thread contraptions and what little sewing we see, the comedy is a bit, well, threadbare, while the full garment of the film lacks the finishing on the seams that would make it satisfying and professional-looking.” –

Brief History of a Family (2024)

5/5
“It’s so exquisitely balanced that it’s able to keep reconfiguring itself with the merest breeze into a whole new arrangement of shapes that’s just as pleasing and abstract as the last.” –

American Dreamer (2022)

2/5
“This low-key oddity has the potential for some proper horsepower given the odd but intriguing casting of Peter Dinklage and Shirley MacLaine, but it never manages to build up much comic or dramatic speed.” –

“Moss has one of cinema’s great poker faces, an impenetrability enhanced by those spectacularly sculpted cheekbones, so she’s well cast here as an enigma wrapped in a tattered parka. ” –

Chang'an (2023)

Cold Wallet (2024)
66%
4/5
“There’s a lot of nerd talk about passkeys, cold wallets and whatnot, but the film is to its credit much more interested in psychology rather than tech, and the fine lines between avarice, rage and impotence that make the capitalist world go round.” –

The Birthday (2004)

My Husband, the Cyborg (2025)

“As a documentary about the world of body modification, it’s somewhat superficial and doesn’t really get under the skin, as it were... But the slow collapse of their relationship is oddly compelling -- if a bit sad -- to watch.” –

The Absence of Eden (2023)

“All the lead actors are pretty good and well-enough directed by Perego. But there’s a grim, hopeless flatness about the script’s tragedy-flecked momentum, timely enough these days but not exactly moving the conversation along.” –
