Havoc (2025) 66% 2.5/4 “There’s no way to call “Havoc” a good movie, but as bad movies go, this is a good one. Depending on your mood, its variety of craziness could be what you’re looking for. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Apr 25, 2025 Full Review The Shrouds (2024) 74% 3/4 “It’s an absolutely original vision. It’s a wail of grief, an expression of love, a testament to the body. Cronenberg puts it all on the line here, and he gets his actors to put it all on the line with him.” – San Francisco Chronicle Apr 25, 2025 Full Review Drop (2025) 84% 3/4 “There’s just something generous about a movie like “Drop,” which has no ego behind it and no ambition but to press those buttons and make an audience scream, squirm and wonder what’s going to happen next.” – San Francisco Chronicle Apr 10, 2025 Full Review Bob Trevino Likes It (2024) 95% 3/4 “When one performance in a movie is exceptional, you can credit the actor. But when everyone is great, it has to have at least something to do with the director. That’s the case with “Bob Trevino Likes It,” which has three standout performances.” – San Francisco Chronicle Mar 27, 2025 Full Review The Penguin Lessons (2024) 80% 2/4 “Unfortunately, the thin story feels terribly stretched and often doesn’t make sense. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Mar 27, 2025 Full Review The Alto Knights (2025) 39% 3/4 “Levinson might secretly wonder if the bizarre casting was the right move after all. But at least he got strong performances from his lead actor, and he took a good script by Pileggi (“Goodfellas”) and made a good movie out of it.” – San Francisco Chronicle Mar 20, 2025 Full Review Tommy (1975) 71% “It’s Ken Russell unbound.” – San Francisco Chronicle Mar 18, 2025 Full Review Liza: A Truly Terrific Absolutely True Story (2024) 95% 4/4 ““Liza” captures an attractive swath of show business history and reminds us of Minnelli’s accomplishments, which were significant.” – San Francisco Chronicle Feb 28, 2025 Full Review Barry Lyndon (1975) 78% 4/4 “This is one of Kubrick's best, not gimmicky or arch, not somnambulant or mannered, just finely detailed, measured, richly photographed and, at every step of the way, entertaining and interesting.” – San Francisco Chronicle Feb 25, 2025 Full Review Cleaner (2025) 50% 3/4 ““Cleaner” is a good-not-great thriller in the “Die Hard” mold that gets an extra lift from Campbell’s skillful direction and from Ridley, who is slowly but surely showing herself to be a performer of wide range and appeal. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Feb 19, 2025 Full Review Kinda Pregnant (2025) 29% 3/4 “As long as the emotions, terrors and humiliations are big, she’s funny, and [Schumer's] latest, “Kinda Pregnant,” gives her lots of opportunities to be funny.” – San Francisco Chronicle Feb 8, 2025 Full Review Love Me (2024) 47% 2/4 “Still, every so often “Love Me” finds a certain feeling and tone, where we can feel the vastness of human longing and measure it against the yet greater vastness and consuming blackness of space. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Feb 4, 2025 Full Review Mary (2024) 29% 1/4 “What we get here is no more real than a Hallmark card, except that it’s a different kind of Hallmark card, one in which Mary has to jump off a roof to escape a burning building and Joseph (Ido Tako) gets into sword fights.” – San Francisco Chronicle Dec 7, 2024 Full Review September 5 (2024) 93% 3/4 ““September 5” succeeds as a tense and involving film, at least partly because it makes the case that the tragedy, despite all its other consequences and ramifications, marked a signal moment in news broadcasting.” – San Francisco Chronicle Dec 7, 2024 Full Review Maria (2024) 75% 3/4 “Jolie is sometimes hard to cast, because she looks like an entity that doesn’t quite belong in normal life. But here that quality becomes an asset.” – San Francisco Chronicle Dec 7, 2024 Full Review Gladiator II (2024) 70% 2.5/4 “In this way, “Gladiator II” coasts: never good, never terrible, always a little disappointing, with speeches that fall flat and gladiator battles that are like watching the World Series when your team isn’t in it. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Nov 21, 2024 Full Review Nightbitch (2024) 59% 1/4 “If the real-life situation that’s propelling the book or movie is dramatically inert, the filmmakers must come up with a metaphor that expresses the same anger and the same issues without being so on the nose that they put the audience to sleep.” – San Francisco Chronicle Nov 21, 2024 Full Review A Real Pain (2024) 96% 4/4 “Culkin gives you something closer to life, a character of complication, contradiction and unknowability. He gives us a whole person, so vivid and true that we feel that we know someone just like him, even if we don’t. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Nov 13, 2024 Full Review The Piano Lesson (2024) 88% “Over and over, Deadwyler is able to seem both open to people and yet full of so much rage that she could explode at any moment.” – San Francisco Chronicle Nov 13, 2024 Full Review Small Things Like These (2024) 94% 2/4 “It’s a sensitive movie on a worthy subject. In fact, it’s so sensitive and worthy that one is reluctant to mention that there’s little pleasure in watching it.” – San Francisco Chronicle Nov 13, 2024 Full Review Absolution (2024) 55% 2/4 “The movie tries to make up for its lack of propulsion through various means, with mixed results. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Nov 5, 2024 Full Review My Name is Alfred Hitchcock (2022) 93% 3/5 “Every great director deserves the vigorous engagement of a documentarian like Cousins, who comes to the work with passion and fresh eyes. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Oct 28, 2024 Full Review Sisi & I (2023) 63% 1/4 “Sisi has the privilege and curse of knowing she can get away with anything, that nothing she does is unforgivable. In psychological terms, that dynamic is promising, but the movie gives it no dramatic context. ” – San Francisco Chronicle Oct 28, 2024 Full Review Anora (2024) 93% 4/4 “Baker’s selection of incidents, his ability to render them vividly in a short time, and his discipline in not going longer are all worthy of praise.” – San Francisco Chronicle Oct 28, 2024 Full Review Conclave (2024) 93% 3/4 “As Lawrence, Fiennes reflects the audience’s ongoing unsureness. Fortunately, he is one of the few actors who can make indecision feel active.” – San Francisco Chronicle Oct 28, 2024 Full Review
