88/100
“The direction is restrained but elegant in its precision, often leaving the camera in place and delicately zooming in and out to accentuate an otherwise static composition. Cinematographer Michal Dymek deftly frames interiors and captures exquisite light” –

Planet B (2024)

“Another year, another Adèle Exarchopoulos film, and for the first time in a while, a colossal misfire. Planet B, Aude Léa Rapin’s sophomore feature, is the type of science fiction film that makes a typical fan of the genre...have feelings of lamentation.” –

“...avoids striking visual choice and opts for familiar patinas and frames, and lets his stars do the heavy lifting. There’s certainly something to appreciate, though one senses this film reads better off the page than it does witnessed on the screen.” –

Hit Man (2023)

78/100
“Hit Man is a smile and a wink. It’s charming and knows it; it’s fun and knows it; it’s flimsy and celebrates it. Splendidly cast, well-directed, and pleasant to watch, it may feel like a live-action cartoon, but what’s more Americana than that?” –

“While feeling old hat in many ways, Coup de Chance also feels like a fresh breath in. At its best, a Woody Allen film can charm us all into it. Sure, it’s a familiar scenario, but the score and editing punctuate each note with care.” –
