Swimming Pool (2003) 83% “Swimming Pool is a perfectly good summer movie -- but here's hoping for something even bolder and more decisive from Ozon next time.” – The Advocate May 27, 2022 Full Review Bear Cub (2004) 74% “Whenever anything truly smart or sexy intervenes... it feels like an interruption in the bland predictability of something on NBC Thursday nights.” – The Advocate May 27, 2022 Full Review Yes Nurse! No Nurse! (2002) 44% “An amiable, gumdrop- colored, frenetically campy -- if ultimately exhausting -- musical fantasy.” – The Advocate May 27, 2022 Full Review Callas Forever (2002) 40% “Callas deserves, at the very least, a film the equal of Amadeus. This isn't it.” – The Advocate May 27, 2022 Full Review Proteus (2003) “Such rich material needn't have been played as flatly, unemotionally, and clumsily as a historical pageant. We never feel any heat or passion, much less chemistry, between Brown and Sandilands as the lovers.” – The Advocate May 4, 2022 Full Review Straight-Jacket (2004) 45% “Straight-Jacket's themes -- the price of staying in the closet, the pain of being an unwitting beard, the McCarthy witch hunts that destroyed lives -- are way too rich to merely get popped like champagne bubbles in a campy comedy.” – The Advocate Apr 20, 2022 Full Review The Lighthouse (2019) 90% “The suspense and supernatural elements-especially as filmed in film-noir, 35-millimeter black-and-white-are as palpable as they are astonishing. A brilliant achievement.” – Playboy Online Feb 11, 2020 Full Review Parasite (2019) 99% “Ingeniously written and directed, plus faultlessly acted, this is one of the great movie experiences of this or any year.” – Playboy Online Feb 11, 2020 Full Review Marriage Story (2019) 95% “It's wise and emotionally battering, but it never forgets to be crazily funny and doesn't pander. Beautiful, heartbreaking stuff.” – Playboy Online Feb 11, 2020 Full Review The Irishman (2019) 95% “This is a magnificently wise, majestic, top-shelf work about the relentless passage of time and the fate awaiting us all, connected or not.” – Playboy Online Feb 11, 2020 Full Review Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2019) 51% 2.5/4 “Star Wars ends with a whimper, not the royal farewell the franchise deserved.” – Playboy Online Feb 11, 2020 Full Review Joker (2019) 68% “The whole damn thing is directed with such boldness and vision that Todd Phillips (yeah, the Hangover guy) should never look back again. A big-screen must see.” – Playboy Online Feb 11, 2020 Full Review The Farewell (2019) 97% “This is a humane, wise treasure of a movie.” – Playboy Online Feb 11, 2020 Full Review 1917 (2019) 88% “Mendes and Co. make it all seem fresh and vital again. This is a a movie filled with gorgeous and grotesque imagery...” – Playboy Online Feb 11, 2020 Full Review Knives Out (2019) 97% “A great time at the movies and just begging for a sequel.” – Playboy Online Feb 11, 2020 Full Review Jojo Rabbit (2019) 80% “The cauldron-a pinch of Mel Brooks here, a bit of Ernst Lubitsch's To Be or Not to Be there-bubbles over with terrific performances.” – Playboy Online Feb 11, 2020 Full Review Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) (2020) 79% 2/4 “'Birds of Prey' is a fast and irreverent spit in the eye to the pomposity of the overblown superhero genre.” – Playboy Online Feb 7, 2020 Full Review Once Upon a Time... In Hollywood (2019) 86% 2.5/4 “The movie is getting almost universally praised as a second coming of summer-movie fun. To this viewer, it just seemed like a letdown. Tarantino is better than this.” – Playboy Online Jul 29, 2019 Full Review Transit (2018) 94% “Directing with deadly and terrifying brilliance worthy of Alfred Hitchcock, Christian Petzold has adapted from Anna Segher's 1944 novel of the same name and created a paranoid Kafka-like masterwork.” – Playboy Online Jul 8, 2019 Full Review High Life (2018) 83% “It's a chilly, somber, despairing thing, this one, but put me in the cheering section.” – Playboy Online Jul 8, 2019 Full Review Long Day's Journey Into Night (2018) 95% “The movie is not just a meditation on the old song lyric, How can we hang on to a dream? but also Why should we want to? Gorgeous, languid and haunting moviemaking.” – Playboy Online Jul 8, 2019 Full Review High Flying Bird (2019) 91% “It's all about the exploitation of race and class, and it's terrific, truth-telling entertainment. One of Soderbergh's best, ever. And that's saying something.” – Playboy Online Jul 8, 2019 Full Review Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019) 91% 3/4 “Tom Holland helps the joyful film stand out amid the superhero glut.” – Playboy Online Jul 8, 2019 Full Review Diane (2018) 93% “There's not a better movie in theaters than this sometimes-surreal, surprising, marvelously wise and humane one directed by Kent Jones.” – Playboy Online Jul 8, 2019 Full Review Ash Is Purest White (2018) 99% “Gorgeous to look at and spectacularly well-acted.” – Playboy Online Jul 8, 2019 Full Review
