The Phoenician Scheme (2025)
77%
EDIT
“Everything in it looks and sounds incredible, yet somehow, it’s very hard to truly enjoy. ... Every frame and every element in the film can mean everything and nothing at the same time.” –

Warfare (2025)

EDIT
“It's a meticulous, almost docufiction reconstruction of the events. It is also quite possibly the scariest film you will see this season.” –

Gazer (2024)
78%
EDIT
“The authors of Gazer clearly have great taste in movies and genuinely love everything they pay homage to here. However, despite what the excessively optimistic ending of the film seems to imply, sometimes love is simply not enough.” –

Babygirl (2024)
76%
EDIT
“In this sense, Babygirl is the opposite of an erotic film in the best of ways, as its characters not only have sex (a lot) but do the unimaginable: they talk about it. ” –

Flow (2024)

EDIT
“It happens once in a while: a truly great movie comes along resurrecting something that’s commonly referred to as the magic of cinema. ... Most of all, it is a story about acceptance.” –

Suburban Fury (2024)
100%
EDIT
“Ironically, the more ideas are thrown in, the jumpier the narrative grows, and the more this movie becomes realistic. This is the way reality always strikes back: by being more inexplicable than anything consciously constructed by humans.” –

Transamazonia (2024)

EDIT
“The rainforest comes alive with many closeups of insects and constant splashes of light trying to penetrate the darkness, and the land becomes its own character, the most important one. ” –

The Damned (2024)

EDIT
“Feels a lot like its characters do: a bit lost. ... Throughout all this, it’s kind of hard to be emotionally invested in the characters, who are basically concepts riding atop very confused horses. At least the horses are relatable. ” –

All Shall Be Well (2024)
96%
EDIT
“A very quiet film, but by no means is it tranquil. As there is almost no music and only natural sounds of life can be heard, it’s one of those cinematic pieces that makes you listen carefully and by extension - look closely.” –

The Killer's Game (2024)

EDIT
“Seriously, Dave Bautista literally dismembering some K-pop band lookalikes is not as exciting as it may sound. ... Bautista tries to carry the load of the crumbling script on his broad shoulders and overshadow tonal shifts with his huge charisma.” –

Speak No Evil (2024)

EDIT
“This film belongs to James McAvoy. It's rare to see an actor visibly have so much fun with a role, and McAvoy ... can lead seemingly smart, sane people to ignore their brains screaming at them to get the hell out. ” –

The Wasp (2024)

“Both Naomie Harris and Natalie Dormer do a phenomenal job here. The end result of all these creative efforts is a disturbing and dramatic piece that packs a lot into an hour and a half and just tends to stick with you afterwards.” –

Consumed (2024)

EDIT
“Unfortunately, these efforts don’t help Consumed succeed as a horror or a thriller; it remains spectacularly unscary throughout and doesn’t dare to do anything any other creature film hasn’t done before.” –

Kneecap (2024)

“Bold, entertaining and boisterous – both as a cinematic piece and as a statement. It is also genuinely hilarious. ... What is pretty rare, though, is that a crowd-pleaser would also happen to be political and unapologetic about it.” –

The Nature of Love (2023)

“Unlike a typical romcom narrative, Chokri’s film doesn’t offer recipes or remedies, it just states the fact in a surprisingly upbeat and entertaining way. Who knows what Plato or Schopenhauer would say on the matter, but Antonioni would definitely approve” –

The Secret Art of Human Flight (2023)

“Eccentricity is a trademark of Mendoza’s filmmaking, and his latest feature ... is sticking to the staple. From the very start, the movie sets a very particular tone that’s both light-hearted and bitter-sweet, both straight-faced and tongue in cheek.” –
