Woman of the Hour (2023) 91% “However generous its intentions, as it veers from one woman’s story to another, Woman of the Hour struggles to cohere. The vignettes are too brief, an uneven series of portraits of women caught in the wrong place at the wrong time.” – New Statesman Oct 18, 2024 Full Review The Imaginary (2023) 91% 4/5 “The Imaginary may not be a standout in the rich and wide-ranging oeuvre of its makers, but it is a moving and charming testament to the delights of dreaming.” – Guardian Jul 3, 2024 Full Review Next Sohee (2022) 94% 3/5 “A chilling portrait of a generation frustrated and betrayed, facing a future they don’t quite want to claim.” – Guardian Jun 10, 2024 Full Review Gasoline Rainbow (2023) 93% 3/5 “A movie in the tradition of “vibes” film-making, less interested in a propulsive plot than exploring the revealing and delightful moments that arise from spontaneous human interactions. ” – Guardian May 29, 2024 Full Review Slow (2023) 93% 3/5 “With strong performances by Grinevičiūtė and Cicėnas, Elena and Dovydas’s relationship unfolds at a gentle, unhurried pace, their growing attraction indicated by small details that reward attentive viewing.” – Guardian May 21, 2024 Full Review Barbie (2023) 88% “Barbie performs a great trick: it takes in crowds aching for fantasy and switches the script, telling them that reality and their flawed, beautiful selves is all they have to love.” – Another Gaze Aug 2, 2023 Full Review She Said (2022) 88% “The film is most resonant when it understands its own limits, while not losing sight of its hopes.” – Another Gaze Jan 26, 2023 Full Review The Lost Daughter (2021) 94% “Gyllenhaal's portrait of an anti-holiday filled with minor annoyances mirrors the intimate, self-conscious and at times unsettling nature of Ferrante's novel.” – Another Gaze Jan 21, 2022 Full Review The Power of the Dog (2021) 94% “As seen by the way Peter and Phil's fraught relationship is at once infused with tenderness and violence, hope and contempt, Campion's masterful filmmaking could have easily held more in the frame.” – Another Gaze Dec 2, 2021 Full Review Promising Young Woman (2020) 90% “Promising Young Woman explored suffering and revenge and fell short...” – Another Gaze Apr 23, 2021 Full Review The Cloud in Her Room (2020) 83% “The effect of A Cloud's depiction of alienation, loneliness, and longing in contemporary city life is uncanny and almost fantastical.” – Another Gaze Mar 5, 2021 Full Review Parasite (2019) 99% “Thinking very metaphorically may not lead to our salvation, but the consciousness it induces just might.” – Another Gaze Feb 14, 2020 Full Review Charlie's Angels (2019) 52% “There is no room for complexity, ambiguity, or thought: no space, in effect, for any interpretation that has not already been carefully spoon-fed to its audience.” – Another Gaze Jan 23, 2020 Full Review Atlantics (2019) 96% “Through layered, textured storytelling, Diop explores what closure might look like in worlds where economic inequality and political violence have made such abrupt endings so common.” – Another Gaze Dec 20, 2019 Full Review The Kingmaker (2019) 97% “...some of the best moments of The Kingmaker show glimpses of Imelda Marcos's worldview, one that pays no heed to notions of truth, reason, and rationality.” – The Nation Nov 15, 2019 Full Review Hustlers (2019) 88% “It is a nuanced, generous depiction of sidelined workplaces and the lives of the women who work in them.” – Another Gaze Oct 2, 2019 Full Review The Farewell (2019) 97% “This apparent simplicity also contains emotional depth. Each frame of the family in The Farewell carries heaviness and lightness at once, indicative of the pain hidden behind everybody's performative happiness.” – Another Gaze Sep 20, 2019 Full Review Heroes Don't Die (2019) 29% “[A] bold and ambitious feature.” – Another Gaze Jun 12, 2019 Full Review Portrait of a Lady on Fire (2019) 97% “Portrait de la jeune fille en feu - a study of two women pursuing lives larger than the ones they've been given - chooses the spirit over formalism; poetry over realism; myth over history.” – Another Gaze Jun 4, 2019 Full Review A Brother's Love (2019) 75% “La femme de mon frère asks whether that waiting may in fact be life itself, and celebrates the fact that we don't have to wait alone.” – Another Gaze May 24, 2019 Full Review Destroyer (2018) 74% “Karyn Kusama sketches out the architecture for an impressive epic of desire, guilt, and shame that moves the police drama past its generic, one-note and largely male roots.” – Another Gaze Feb 27, 2019 Full Review Suspiria (2018) 65% “It is an argument that confuses stylishness with subtext and empty signifiers with intellectual heft.” – Another Gaze Dec 17, 2018 Full Review Widows (2018) 91% “This is not some faux-empowerment story dressed up in infantilising 'girl power' credo.” – Another Gaze Oct 19, 2018 Full Review Crazy Rich Asians (2018) 91% “This is the accidental genius of Crazy Rich Asians; it shows how wealth, in the end, makes fools of us all.” – Another Gaze Oct 11, 2018 Full Review The Rider (2017) 97% “The beauty of Zhao's film is that it celebrates being human without veering into sentimentality.” – Another Gaze Sep 20, 2018 Full Review
