Being Maria (2024) 62% C “Another film could have lent just a touch more focus to the fleeting instances of euphoria shared between lovers, a sometimes necessary reprieve from perpetual agony. Then again, if my grandmother had wheels, she would be a bike.” – InSession Film Mar 26, 2025 Full Review Ex-Husbands (2023) 83% B- “What could have been a lazy, bro-happy raunch fest about what happens to our testicles when we age instead becomes a male-heavy dramedy focused on the lessons we learn both for and about ourselves as we get older, wiser, and occasionally, lonelier.” – InSession Film Mar 26, 2025 Full Review The Actor (2025) 77% B “While no one in The Actor is exactly playing against type, that’s specifically because its titular character struggles to know what his “type” is meant to be.” – InSession Film Mar 20, 2025 Full Review Millers in Marriage (2024) 56% D “This is a film by the talented, pleased-to-be-aimless Edward Burns, a meandering stroll on Central Park West where we aren’t even afforded the excitement of getting mugged.” – InSession Film Mar 20, 2025 Full Review The Unbreakable Boy (2025) 48% D “The shell is hollow; if only the noise it unfortunately continues to create wasn’t so loud. ” – InSession Film Mar 20, 2025 Full Review Made in England: The Films of Powell and Pressburger (2024) 99% B+ “Made in England is as much a lesson in filmmaking as it is a celebration of the great works of two collaborators who saw it as their duty to challenge the conventions of modern filmmaking, if not to upend them completely.” – InSession Film Feb 26, 2025 Full Review Firebrand (2023) 58% C- “It’s a film so desperate to cram everyone and everything into its half-baked world that the result is about as close to nothing as a movie can be. You might say that the sanctity of the realm is looking rather dire.” – InSession Film Feb 26, 2025 Full Review This Closeness (2023) 91% B “Of course, “winning” is not a reason to stay with someone, an internal conflict that This Closeness puts to the test as it rolls toward its pitch-perfect final shot.” – InSession Film Feb 26, 2025 Full Review MaXXXine (2024) 72% D+ “Maxine Minx may be a movie star, but she deserves a better movie than MaXXXine to serve as her big break.” – InSession Film Feb 26, 2025 Full Review Harvest (2024) 55% C- “Harvest is moving as fast as it can, but like a mollusk slinking through the mire, it’s never going to end up anywhere at all.” – InSession Film Feb 26, 2025 Full Review Happyend (2024) 94% B+ “If the film sounds as though it’s light on plot, that’s not a reflection of its activity level, instead a sign of its ostensible simplicity. As it continues, Happyend becomes a film primarily about the dilemma between youth and adulthood” – InSession Film Feb 26, 2025 Full Review No Other Land (2024) 100% A “It’s true that the courageous Israeli-Palestinian collective behind this work of activism – because it’s more than just a film – have made a movie that hovers above any other documentary I’ve seen this year, and, in many ways, is the best thing I’ve seen.” – InSession Film Feb 26, 2025 Full Review Who by Fire (2024) 79% B+ “ Who by Fire takes the makings of what could have been an overlong, overstuffed, overdramatic melodrama and turns it all inside-out in favor of a richly-stimulating feature about desire and privilege.” – InSession Film Feb 26, 2025 Full Review Speak No Evil (2024) 83% C “Neither Speak No Evils come all that close to the pinnacle, but the disadvantage that Speak No Evil (‘24) handed itself on a silver platter is that it is working in direct debate, not conversation, with its source material.” – InSession Film Feb 26, 2025 Full Review On Becoming a Guinea Fowl (2024) 100% B+ “Things in this dark, tragicomic familial drama are more complicated than the questions and answers one might find on an Ancestry.com quiz, as they stretch back generations, not merely to the moment Shula made what should have been a horrifying discovery.” – InSession Film Feb 26, 2025 Full Review Conclave (2024) 93% B “It’s not exactly subtle, but then again, Conclave doesn’t seem to be particularly interested in keeping things enigmatic. It’s too busy taking itself far too seriously; we should do the opposite.” – InSession Film Feb 26, 2025 Full Review How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies (2024) 98% B “Manages to transcend the trappings that a movie with a similar logline would willingly drown in, placing the intricacies of its principal relationship at the forefront as opposed to leaning to unnatural antagonism.” – InSession Film Feb 25, 2025 Full Review Bring Them Down (2024) 90% B+ “Andrews possesses the wherewithal as a filmmaker to commit to his film’s dark tone in a calculated manner that doesn’t make it come off as trauma porn, never affording it the opportunity to revel in its inherent anguish.” – InSession Film Feb 25, 2025 Full Review Serious People (2025) 70% 6/10 “ In the words of Kendrick Lamar — perhaps not how he meant them, but interpreted literally — these people are not like us. Neither are the characters in “Serious People,” but viewers are better off for it than they would be with simpler, less gonzo fare.” – Next Best Picture Feb 6, 2025 Full Review Marlee Matlin: Not Alone Anymore (2025) 96% 6/10 “Occasionally, “Marlee Matlin: Not Alone Anymore“ might feel a little too immersed in pushing that tone forward. Still, the combination of its subject and its inclusive filmmaking style makes it easier to overlook than it might be otherwise.” – Next Best Picture Feb 6, 2025 Full Review Sugar Babies (2025) 40% 3/10 “Fleit fails to do much directing at all, seeming far more willing to let her interviewees dictate the terms and the doc’s narrative direction without pushing back in the slightest.” – Next Best Picture Feb 5, 2025 Full Review Sally (2025) 79% C- “Watching Sally, I was too often reminded of recent festival premieres like 2024’s Never Look Away and 2022’s The Janes, both clunky works of non-fiction that played more like audiovisual textbooks than innovations of the craft.” – InSession Film Feb 3, 2025 Full Review Twinless (2025) 95% B “In less capable hands, Twinless might feel manipulative and overly-calculated for the purpose of deliberately testing its audience’s patience as it takes another twist, and then another turn for good measure.” – InSession Film Feb 3, 2025 Full Review Atropia (2025) 41% C- “It’s a crying shame that Gates never got to shoot the documentary she originally intended Atropia to be, due to the government’s restrictions on materials, because (there is) little interest in mining its own fictional revelations.” – InSession Film Feb 3, 2025 Full Review By Design (2025) 71% B- “To respond negatively to Kramer’s ingenuity as a filmmaker, especially here, is to endure self-inflicted harm.” – InSession Film Feb 3, 2025 Full Review
