Nashville (1975)
89%
A
“At its heart, Nashville is about internal contradiction as both a destructive and a creative force, serving up examples, but drawing no firm conclusions.” –

“When this film is over, viewers with voice-activated smart 온라인카지노추천s are liable to look around for the long-dormant physical remote.” –

“Not since Todd Haynes' Safe has a murkily understood, possibly psychosomatic ailment been reconceived in so haunting and unforgettable a fashion.” –

Cyrano (2021)
85%
B
“[Dinklage] captures Cyrano's unusual mix of bravado and insecurity so exquisitely that he really didn't require songs to push those feelings to another level.” –

The Unforgivable (2021)
38%
C-
“The whole thing comes across as a movie star's anti-vanity project, just an opportunity for Bullock to demonstrate her ostensible range. Okay, she can be hard and stoic and affectless. Noted.” –

C'mon C'mon (2021)
94%
B-
“Mills' core insight remains the same in every film: We're all screwed up to some degree, all constantly improvising, all doing the best we can with relatively few guidelines.” –

Mayor Pete (2021)
71%
B
“There's never a sense of someone who's merely regurgitating memorized talking points. He's personable, animated, empathetic, easy to like. You just never feel as if you've been invited behind the curtain.” –

Finch (2021)

C+
“Finch's main problem is its amiable, low-key vibe, which feels at odds with such a grim scenario.” –

The Electrical Life of Louis Wain (2021)
68%
B-
“At its best, the film arguably needn't be about Louis Wain at all, making it a real disappointment when biopic convention ultimately kicks in. Even then, there's less about feline-centric art than a fan would expect.” –

There's Someone Inside Your House (2021)

C+
“Honestly, it might have been more fun to watch these kids not have their lives threatened. But Fast Times At Osborne High probably doesn't get the Netflix adding machines a-clackin'.” –

Prisoners of the Ghostland (2021)
62%
C+
“There's not quite enough... inspired lunacy to plug the film's gaping narrative holes or compensate for its thinly drawn characters, but at least there's always something to stave off boredom.” –

The Alpinist (2021)
93%
C
“Having a subject who largely refuses to cooperate, thereby forcing the filmmakers to sit around at home and relate much of what happens indirectly, doesn't exactly make for a classic.” –

Anne at 13,000 ft (2019)

B
“If the worst thing one can say about a film is that it's perhaps too carefully thought out (especially for a portrait of irrationality), it's getting the important things right.” –
