Inside Llewyn Davis (2013) 92% “It’s an astute portrayal of the challenges of climbing the economic ladder in any industry.” – Washington City Paper Apr 21, 2025 Full Review Top Secret! (1984) 77% “Kilmer never breaks... it’s a work of near-sorcery, anchoring an actually serious movie that the filmmakers smother with jokes until it becomes a completely different thing.” – Washington City Paper Apr 10, 2025 Full Review Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978) 93% “Its reflection of the national mood should command attention from anyone interested in smart, serious filmmaking. ” – Washington City Paper Mar 28, 2025 Full Review Eephus (2024) 100% “For a baseball movie, that most conventional of genres, it’s startlingly avant-garde. As a representation of life, it’s just accurate.” – Washington City Paper Mar 12, 2025 Full Review Ghost (1990) 75% “Demi Moore is beautiful and a master of the art of the single tear. Patrick Swayze is a singular hunk, a minotaur-like presence whose strength and grace never conflict. ” – Washington City Paper Feb 19, 2025 Full Review Death Becomes Her (1992) 58% “It’s funny, horrifying, and tightly plotted. It goes down a little too smooth, but it may have been all that was possible at the time.” – Washington City Paper Feb 11, 2025 Full Review The Pawnbroker (1964) 88% “The Pawnbroker is a difficult film. A groundbreaking film. A controversial, important, and altogether wonderful film that has little reputation today. ” – Washington City Paper Feb 3, 2025 Full Review Batman Returns (1992) 82% “Batman Returns transcends its genre and shines its Bat-Signal on our foibles and neuroses, conveying a collective humanity with neither heroism nor villainy, just a long, slow trip into the dark. ” – Washington City Paper Dec 9, 2024 Full Review Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1987) 93% “What does ring true is the captivating acting, the zippy pace, and the big laughs that Martin and Candy earn through their gentle rapport. ” – Washington City Paper Nov 25, 2024 Full Review The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999) 85% “If it wasn’t clear by now, The Talented Mr. Ripley is the rare film of its era in which the actors take center stage, not the director. ” – Washington City Paper Nov 6, 2024 Full Review Ghostbusters (1984) 95% “Ghostbusters, for all its wonderful silliness, is an artifact that helps us understand its time, as well as ours.” – Washington City Paper Aug 30, 2024 Full Review The Last Detail (1973) 87% “It’s the essence of New Hollywood filmmaking, which broke down our myths and revealed in their place a world of everyday losers who looked so much like ourselves that we couldn’t turn away.” – Washington City Paper Aug 15, 2024 Full Review California Split (1974) 87% “Every winning streak has to end, but California Split has a helluva run.” – Washington City Paper Aug 3, 2024 Full Review Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice (1969) 82% “Paul Mazursky’s 1969 comedy speaks to its moment, when normies everywhere were wondering how they could partake in the pleasures of the counterculture, but Mazursky has his eye on something more universal.” – Washington City Paper Jul 19, 2024 Full Review Once Upon a Time in the West (1968) 96% “Sergio Leone’s 1968 spaghetti western might be set in the 19th century, but it captured the violence of the ’60s, yet the grandly cinematic film that still somehow embraces humanity.” – Washington City Paper Jun 8, 2024 Full Review Point Break (2015) 11% “Point Break still seduces viewers with its tension and its thrills.” – Washington City Paper May 24, 2024 Full Review The Sixth (2024) 100% “This is the power of the documentary form. Never again must we forget our own nightmares. Especially when they come true.” – Washington City Paper May 10, 2024 Full Review Anatomy of a Murder (1959) 100% “There’s a fresh thrill in seeing the conventions of the courtroom drama trotted out for the first time, and its lingering sense of moral ambiguity is still jarring. ” – Washington City Paper Apr 27, 2024 Full Review Phantom of the Paradise (1974) 82% “Brian De Palma’s 1974 pastiche is a near-psychedelic experience built not on freaky visual effects but on pure passion and unadulterated artistry.” – Washington City Paper Mar 29, 2024 Full Review Holiday (1938) 100% “Capturing the turn from the Roaring 20s to the Great Depression, George Cukor's film, starring greats Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn, wears its sadness on its sleeve, but is also incredibly fun.” – Washington City Paper Mar 2, 2024 Full Review If Beale Street Could Talk (2018) 95% “A beautiful love story that offers a mosaic of injustices, some of which can be overcome by love, others with no solution.” – Washington City Paper Feb 17, 2024 Full Review Who Can See Forever (2023) “Good for him. Bad for us, though, as there’s really not a film here amid all his soft musings. Or maybe there is, and these guys just didn’t want to find it.” – Washington City Paper Feb 3, 2024 Full Review Cure (1997) 94% “Only a filmmaker as disciplined as Kurosawa would be able to live in such mysteries without losing their audience.” – Washington City Paper Jan 19, 2024 Full Review The Killer (2023) 85% “The Killer is a self-referential work in which Fincher acknowledges his own reputation as a controlling director and digs under the surface to find the quivering child beneath. He’s there, but you have to look for him.” – Washington City Paper Jan 3, 2024 Full Review Afire (2023) 91% “In watching them find it, we might find a little peace for ourselves...” – Washington City Paper Jan 3, 2024 Full Review
