Clemente (2024) “If you’re unfamiliar with the legendary athlete's life and legacy, or you just need an uplifting story, Clemente is worth your time. The documentary is complicated, unruly, and not without its flaws, but also deeply inspiring.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Nov 14, 2024 Full Review Fallen Leaves (2023) 97% “Poysti and Vatanen do much of the heavy lifting in a film that could easily fall flat if its actors aren’t selling equal parts dryness and warmth. The two leads manage to sell the despondence, sure, but they sell the hope as well.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Dec 19, 2023 Full Review Anatomy of a Fall (2023) 96% “An endlessly gripping pseudo-murder mystery with confusion and uncertainty becoming the center and lifeblood of the film.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Dec 1, 2023 Full Review Mutiny in Heaven: The Birthday Party (2023) 100% “The performances showcased in the film are enrapturing; there are louder bands, more “shocking” bands, lyrically, but few match the sense of impending dread that The Birthday Party delivers here.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Sep 21, 2023 Full Review Air (2023) 93% “It takes a lot of restraint and skill to mine high drama out of standing in line at the airport or out of a meeting...Air succeeds because Affleck trusts his story, trusts his cast, and trusts himself to know that these moments are their own action movie.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Apr 13, 2023 Full Review Infinity Pool (2023) 87% “It's worth overlooking any shortcomings to enjoy the visual treat that is Infinity Pool.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery (2022) 91% “There’s nothing like confidence to buoy a film into reaching for greatness, and Johnson has confidence in spades here. ” – Pittsburgh City Paper Nov 30, 2022 Full Review All Quiet on the Western Front (2022) 90% “[All Quiet on the Western Front] an exercise in the miserable. A World War I story told from the perspective of the Imperial German Army, the film gives sympathy to those just following orders, bludgeons us with the hell of war, and... that’s about it.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Nov 18, 2022 Full Review InHospitable (2021) “The film is ostensibly about the nation’s dearth of affordable healthcare, and how a series of nonprofit hospitals seemingly made more profit than ever before... However, despite a national reach, the focus lies primarily at the feet of Pittsburgh.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Oct 13, 2022 Full Review Blonde (2022) 42% “Here, armchair psychology and abject cruelty pass for a “complex portrait.” Try as he might, Dominick can't hide his contempt with superficial beauty.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Oct 1, 2022 Full Review The Gray Man (2022) 45% “That Anthony and Joe Russo can take an ensemble like that and a $200-plus million budget and still deliver an uninspired, bland waste of talent is a crime that deserves the same level of investigation as Watergate.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Aug 4, 2022 Full Review Nope (2022) 83% “For all its visually stunning and terrifying glory, Nope does have its flaws, coming off as overstuffed with ideas, yet ending as suddenly as it began. But Peele’s commitment to overstuffing, to truly going for it, should be commended whenever possible.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Jul 28, 2022 Full Review Crimes of the Future (2022) 80% “There’s a lot of heart in Crimes of the Future, along with a lot of other organs.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Jun 23, 2022 Full Review The Northman (2022) 90% “One of the most breathtakingly nuts movies in recent years, a died-in-the-wool Viking revenge epic that feels every bit like a visionary has been given money to burn for the first time in his life, and is going to take full advantage of it.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Apr 14, 2022 Full Review Cyrano (2021) 85% “Wright [is] going for something truly out there, with a high chance of failure. In the end, he misses the mark as much as he hits, but he finds the joy in the small moments enough to make Cyrano an interesting study of an interesting life.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Mar 4, 2022 Full Review The Batman (2022) 85% “What Reeves has done here should be taken as a remarkable accomplishment. In an era of studio properties, especially superhero movies, aiming for the safest possible outcome, The Batman is a legitimately out-there film.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Mar 4, 2022 Full Review Now Return Us to Normal (2016) “The end result of Now Return Us to Normal is cathartic in a way, but there’s also a sense that closure will never fully be reached because how can it be?” – Pittsburgh City Paper Feb 12, 2022 Full Review Drive My Car (2021) 97% “Drive My Car is obsessed with language, how the same phrase can be morphed and changed to fit any particular meaning, and how we use our words to conceal our feelings, not expose them.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Jan 20, 2022 Full Review Freeland (2020) 100% “It's pretty easy to overcome these flaws when you have a central performance as good as Fairchild's. The type of work that, if it had more eyeballs, would be considered for any and every award, she is masterful as Devi.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Dec 16, 2021 Full Review The Humans (2021) 92% “This is a cast and a writer/director with a full grasp on something unique, and they turn The Humans into one of the better films this year.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Nov 18, 2021 Full Review Spencer (2021) 83% “[Stewart] uses her innate awkwardness and reserved nature to turn in by far the best work of her career.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Nov 5, 2021 Full Review The Velvet Underground (2021) 98% “It's beautifully flawed, far too long, and deeply rewarding.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Oct 29, 2021 Full Review The Alpinist (2021) 93% “In the biggest compliment I can pay it, I left the film understanding why Leclerc did what he did, I just couldn't fathom doing it myself.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Sep 16, 2021 Full Review Candyman (2021) 84% “Stay for the impeccably crafted genre scares, but don't expect the film to provide any clear commentary, as it valiantly tries to address many important issues, but ultimately falls short.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Sep 2, 2021 Full Review Pig (2021) 97% “It's not a perfect film, but it's unique, it's often beautiful, and it certainly cares.” – Pittsburgh City Paper Jul 22, 2021 Full Review
