Hurry Up Tomorrow (2025) 14% “Hurry Up Tomorrow basically serves as a feature-length prologue for [The Weeknd's] new song. And, unfortunately, the film proves so dreadful that anyone who endures it won’t have good vibes connected to the track.” – That Shelf May 15, 2025 Full Review Spark (2024) “Germaine and their co-stars deliver rich, fully lived-in performances by doing away with the exposition, coming out narratives, and affirmation stories that too frequently define queer characters.” – Xtra Magazine May 14, 2025 Full Review Shifting Baselines (2025) “This fascinating observational film proves a provocative time capsule for the moment: giving a care about the planet really does offer a life or death prospect.” – POV Magazine May 8, 2025 Full Review Paul (2025) “This offbeat portrait reminds audiences never to yuck someone else’s yum. If anything, it’s a lesson in inventive home remedies.” – POV Magazine May 8, 2025 Full Review Apocalypse in the Tropics (2024) “It’s a clarion call to preserve our democratic rights.” – POV Magazine May 8, 2025 Full Review River of Grass (2025) “A vivid love letter to the land and a call for its protection.” – POV Magazine May 8, 2025 Full Review A Nice Indian Boy (2024) 96% “Exploring questions of culture clashes, generational divides, and romance, A Nice Indian Boy is a big, warm hug of a movie that gives you all the feels.” – That Shelf Apr 26, 2025 Full Review The Friend (2024) 84% “The Friend is an endearingly affectionate study of grief, closure, and companionship that features a never-better Naomi Watts in the lead. But the true star of the film is Bing the dog. ” – That Shelf Apr 26, 2025 Full Review G20 (2025) 56% “Falling somewhere between Air Force One, Die Hard, and Murder at 1600, G20 feels firmly indebted to maximalist 1990s-early 2000s action filmmaking. It’s consistently entertaining, with a healthy mix of spectacular action and comedic relief. ” – That Shelf Apr 26, 2025 Full Review The Encampments (2025) 94% “comfort viewing that seeks to affirm a perspective one already has. ” – POV Magazine Apr 16, 2025 Full Review October 8 (2024) 72% “October 8 makes some compelling points whenever it isn’t flying off the rails. ” – POV Magazine Apr 16, 2025 Full Review One to One: John & Yoko (2024) 90% “It’s a rather lovely film, if a familiar one. The Beatles movies are all a blur at this point.” – POV Magazine Apr 16, 2025 Full Review The Wedding Banquet (2025) 88% “[Ahn's] take on the contemporary classic gives a multifaceted look at queer families in the many forms they take. ” – That Shelf Apr 16, 2025 Full Review The Ballad of Wallis Island (2025) 98% “Whenever Charles leaves the scene, The Ballad of Wallis Island hits the right chord. ” – That Shelf Apr 2, 2025 Full Review O'Dessa (2025) 39% “This rock opera proves that there’s a huge difference between a big swing and a big swing and a miss. ” – That Shelf Mar 21, 2025 Full Review Black Bag (2025) 96% “It’s a smart caper that feels refreshingly old-fashioned, yet decidedly contemporary with its take on the value of emotional intelligence.” – That Shelf Mar 14, 2025 Full Review Seven Veils (2023) 77% “This audacious adaptation combines both poles of Egoyan’s oeuvre as he centres a backstage drama on his 2023 remounting of Salome.” – That Shelf Mar 7, 2025 Full Review SLY LIVES! (aka The Burden of Black Genius) (2025) 93% “It’s a great deep dive into a musician’s signature sound, persona, and influence.” – POV Magazine Feb 14, 2025 Full Review Parthenope (2024) 45% “[Sorrentino] just can’t write a female character who can sustain a feature.” – That Shelf Feb 11, 2025 Full Review Grand Theft Hamlet (2024) 93% “Grand Theft Hamlet essentially offers a longitudinal screen capture. Parsed from 300 hours of material, it boasts a contemporary twist on backstage documentary, albeit as a one-note joke.” – POV Magazine Feb 11, 2025 Full Review Two Women (2025) 95% “Two Women should convince the world that Canada’s snowy nether regions can bring the heat.” – That Shelf Feb 10, 2025 Full Review Khartoum (2025) 92% “It’s a well-intentioned if scattered hybrid portrait.” – POV Magazine Feb 10, 2025 Full Review The Perfect Neighbor (2025) 100% “It’s top-notch filmmaking in every regard.” – POV Magazine Feb 10, 2025 Full Review 2000 Meters to Andriivka (2025) 95% “Chernov imbues the documentary with a haunting sense of loss as images caught by bodycameras share heroic acts by soldiers on the ground, many of whom have since passed.” – POV Magazine Feb 10, 2025 Full Review André is an Idiot (2025) 92% “The film mixes a great cocktail of self-deprecating humour and unsentimental inspiration. ” – POV Magazine Feb 10, 2025 Full Review
