Anselm (2023) 98% 3/4 “As Kiefer’s monumental art decays, “Anselm” can endure as his memorial.” – Washington Post Jan 2, 2024 Full Review Heat (1995) 83% “Heat may be something different for Mann, but in the larger context of Hollywood it’s mostly more of the same.” – Washington City Paper Dec 21, 2023 Full Review Ferrari (2023) 72% 2.5/4 “The bulk of this stylish period drama is about the man, not the machines that bear his name. That’s a problem, because Mann doesn’t seem to have figured out quite what he thinks about the automobile baron.” – Washington Post Dec 19, 2023 Full Review Monster (2023) 96% 3.5/4 “Despite its sometimes overwrought mystery-tale gambits, however, “Monster” ultimately shifts from a saga of fateful misunderstanding to one of mutual comprehension.” – Washington Post Dec 13, 2023 Full Review Home Alone (1990) 66% “Scripter John Hughes and director Chris Columbus show their hand early in the movie.” – Washington City Paper Nov 28, 2023 Full Review Smoke Signals (1998) 90% “Smoke Signals is a modest film, in some ways underdeveloped, but it’s worthy of Thomas’ complex understanding of the power of storytelling. Asked if he wants to hear lies or the truth, he replies, “I want both.”” – Washington City Paper Nov 8, 2023 Full Review To Kill a Tiger (2022) 100% 3/4 “What’s extraordinary about “To Kill a Tiger” is Kiran and Ranjit’s determination, and the possible changes for good that may result from it.” – Washington Post Nov 7, 2023 Full Review Beyond Utopia (2023) 100% 3.5/4 “Beyond Utopia contains background material on the history, culture and travails of North Korea that's necessary but clunkily presented... But the rest of the movie is fresh and compelling.” – Washington Post Nov 1, 2023 Full Review The Mission (2023) 94% 3/4 “The film expands into a debate on the ethics of missionary Christianity.” – Washington Post Oct 24, 2023 Full Review A Pocketful of Miracles: A Tale of Two Siblings (2023) 3/4 “Although much of what they recount is appalling, Covensky and Chase tell their stories calmly. Covensky is particularly upbeat, often smiling and laughing. Chase concludes by describing his life as “a pocketful of miracles.”” – Washington Post Oct 23, 2023 Full Review The Pigeon Tunnel (2023) 96% 2.5/4 “The lack of tension between Morris and his subject diminishes the film's energy. The director even visualizes the idea that reality is prismatic rather than linear, occasionally fracturing the image of le Carré and his genteel environs.” – Washington Post Oct 17, 2023 Full Review Radical Wolfe (2023) 68% 2.5/4 “Dewey just doesn’t have the patience for a subtle approach. Sections of this informative but unimaginative movie are presented as hectic montages in an apparent attempt to mirror Wolfe’s speedy, ebullient prose.” – Washington Post Oct 12, 2023 Full Review The Storms of Jeremy Thomas (2021) 80% 2.5/4 “The Storms of Jeremy Thomas portrays Thomas as good company and an erudite cinema buff. As for what he does for a living, that hardly seems worth discussing.” – Washington Post Oct 3, 2023 Full Review The Creator (2023) 68% 2/4 “Overloaded with incidents, effects and explosions, “The Creator” fails to develop the personalities and relationships that would give its central characters an affecting humanity.” – Washington Post Sep 26, 2023 Full Review Expend4bles (2023) 14% 2.5/4 “The movie is unsurprising and not especially ambitious, but it’s agile enough to vault over most of its flaws.” – Washington Post Sep 21, 2023 Full Review Fremont (2023) 98% 2/4 “Fremont has the demeanor of a kitchen-sink drama but is laced with deadpan absurdism.” – Washington Post Sep 12, 2023 Full Review Lone Star (1996) 91% “Perhaps Sayles’ dialogue wouldn’t clunk so loudly if his direction were more fluid.” – Washington City Paper Sep 6, 2023 Full Review Desperate Souls, Dark City and the Legend of Midnight Cowboy (2022) 91% 3/4 “Obliquely but evocatively, Desperate Souls ponders the many roles of the cowboy: gay icon, cinematic hero and symbol of American manifest destiny from the Rockies to the Mekong.” – Washington Post Sep 6, 2023 Full Review Between Two Worlds (2021) 79% 2.5/4 “Between Two Worlds is freshest when it emphasizes its documentary-like qualities, such as the brief inserts of everyday scenes and locales shot by Philippe Lagnier without any guidance from the director. ” – Washington Post Aug 15, 2023 Full Review Traffic (2000) 93% “Traffic tries to appear dispassionate and up-to-date... but it ultimately settles for a ’60s-style rebuke to a nation that can’t conquer its compulsion for alcohol and nicotine even while enforcing hypocritical laws against marijuana and cocaine.” – Washington City Paper Aug 15, 2023 Full Review Bobi Wine: The People's President (2022) 100% 3/4 “The documentary’s resulting mix of intimate portrait and raw street warfare proves visceral, dynamic and sometimes upsetting.” – Washington Post Aug 7, 2023 Full Review Spirited Away (2001) 96% “Like a trip on the movie’s interurban, Spirited Away is less than expeditious, but it offers fascinating vistas to pass the time.” – Washington City Paper Jul 17, 2023 Full Review The Matrix (1999) 83% “The Matrix asks you to root for the freedom-loving rebels against the robotic agents, but both seem equally mechanical.” – Washington City Paper Jul 13, 2023 Full Review Mulholland Dr. (2001) 84% “What distinguishes the film is not its supposed contemplation of Hollywood roles and personae, but the skill with which it puts the director’s beguilingly loony, lushly appointed fantasies on the screen. ” – Washington City Paper Jul 11, 2023 Full Review Armageddon (1998) 43% “Armageddon is a retread of almost every recent action picture, most notably director Michael Bay’s last film, The Rock.” – Washington City Paper Jun 21, 2023 Full Review
