Foe is full of incredibly interesting ideas and pulls great performances out of all three of its actors, but it’s trying to be too much at once.

The Burial captures the core of Southern courtroom dramas and engages with race and class directly, making those tropes better for it.

One of the best films of the year, GKIDS Film’s Blue Giant captures the beauty, power, and emotional resonance of jazz.

Strong performances give a helping hand to A Deadly Invitation, a Mexican whodunit that offers light entertainment but not much else.

With a fantastic cast that sells you on every joke and vapid play to get in someone’s bed, Totally Killer is totally fantastic.

Ballerina is a decent addition to the action genre, albeit with a slightly forgettable plot. Jeon Jong-seo is one to remember.

The Mill isn’t nuanced in its message about burnout and the way our workplaces exploit us, and you know what, it doesn’t have to be.

Fair Play’s tonal shifts aren’t always executed well but it’s capture of the uncomfortable fall of a relationship makes it worth a watch.

Strange Way of Life is interesting as a curio but its heavy-handed dialogue and bafflingly meager approach to intimacy is vastly disappointing.

The Exorcist: Believer is a film buckling under a franchise attachment it didn’t need, leaving it somewhere in the void of the middle.
