“You wanna hear a story about why me and this bitch here fell out? It’s kind of long but full of suspense.”
On paper (or on an iPhone screen), “Zola” sounds like one of the worst ever ideas for a feature-length film. Based on a real-lif... Read the full review »

Getting older sucks, but it doesn’t have to. Enter The Villages, a Florida retirement community billed as the “Disneyland for Retirees.” Everything is perfect: the residents are smiling, dancing, and enjoying life. There are numerous clubs a... Read the full review »

I left the screening of “Horse Girl” with a deep dissatisfaction, a film that is an odd misstep from director Jeff Baena (“Life After Beth,” “Joshy”). The first half of the film is awkwardly charming, but then it becomes something comp... Read the full review »

Thanks to a recent surge in female-driven horror, the concept of women in genre films no longer feels like a novelty. So when a director chooses to make a scary film that’s centered around the female experience, it better be daring and disruptiv... Read the full review »

Secluded lakeside homes are creepy, and such is the setting for “The Night House,” director David Bruckner‘s suspense-filled thriller. The film offers an anxiety-inducing, bone-chilling take on the traditional ghost story.
Left alone in the... Read the full review »

While audiences are thankfully seeing more female-driven horror films in the movie world, black female horror is even more of an anomaly. That’s why writer / director Justin Simien‘s “Bad Hair” is so damn interesting. The story of one woma... Read the full review »

“The Assistant,” a timely story about abuse of power in the workplace, left me shaken and angry. This quietly devastating film about a young assistant (Julia Garner) to a prominent entertainment executive is inspired by the Me Too movement (an... Read the full review »

“Dinner in America” is weird and oddball in all the right ways. This “Ghost World” meets “Welcome to the Dollhouse” dark comedy is so strange and wonderful that it feels like an adrenaline-fueled exercise in cinematic anarchy.

I am absolutely head over heels in love with writer-director Miranda July‘s “Kajillionaire,” a quirky, tender film that explores the longing for human connection wrapped up in a story about a family of down-on-their-luck con artists. The pro... Read the full review »

I’m one of Kevin Smith‘s biggest fans, but “Jay and Silent Bob Reboot” is a colossal disappointment. What could’ve been a dream film for fans of these two stoner characters instead is nothing but a string of cameos and callbacks in a plo... Read the full review »

A film which owes a debt to Winding Refn's Drive, Blue Ruin is a tense thriller which has a fantastic performance from Macon Blair at its centre.
We watch as our protagonist steps back in time, opening wounds that have long been inflicted and ma... Read the full review »

Paul Thomas Anderson is a director who never patronises his audience. He always places his viewers on a pedastal as he believes they are deserving of being there.
The same is said here. We are invited to watch two greedy, self-centred lovers cla... Read the full review »
