The Water Man (2020) 78% 6.6/10 EDIT “The Water Man's fantastical drama intermittently flounders, floats.” – Paste Magazine May 6, 2021 Full Review Street Gang: How We Got to Sesame Street (2021) 95% 8.2/10 EDIT “Street Gang's abundance of archival footage and personal yarns immerses us in the world of Sesame Street and reminds us how powerful art grows from collaborative minds.” – Paste Magazine May 4, 2021 Full Review Beast Beast (2020) 79% 7.2/10 EDIT “The well-acted coming-of-age drama overcomes its clumsy gun commentary.” – Paste Magazine May 3, 2021 Full Review The Outside Story (2020) 88% 6.8/10 EDIT “Were The Outside Story not blessed with Brian Tyree Henry's ridiculous acting abilities, it would have collapsed into an unexamined chasm of its own social pitfalls” – Paste Magazine Apr 30, 2021 Full Review Golden Arm (2020) 100% 8.6/10 EDIT “A comedy that's simple premise is elevated by its standout performances, talented cast and savvy blend of genres, Golden Arm is a winner.” – Paste Magazine Apr 28, 2021 Full Review Jumbo (2020) 76% 8.5/10 EDIT “Merlant's writhing, fainting spells and intense gaze do well to communicate the intensity of desire and, although the film can sometimes be a dizzying attraction to climb on, Jumbo is certainly worth the ride.” – Paste Magazine Mar 18, 2021 Full Review Kid 90 (2021) 76% 7.1/10 EDIT “The film ricochets between Frye's individual experience and that of her peers, undulating through sharp and shifty emotional overtures that leave the film feeling unorganized.” – Paste Magazine Mar 17, 2021 Full Review Coming 2 America (2021) 49% 8.3/10 EDIT “It's a compelling and complicated emotional journey that forces Lavelle-like his father before him-to navigate his Blackness in a new, vibrant Black environment.” – Paste Magazine Mar 6, 2021 Full Review Judas and the Black Messiah (2021) 96% 8.8/10 EDIT “Judas and the Black Messiah's greatest success is not that it somehow humanizes the Black Panthers, but portrays the Black Panther movement as self-evidently legitimate.” – Paste Magazine Feb 18, 2021 Full Review Shook (2021) 53% 7.1/10 EDIT “Despite Shook's occasional heavy-handedness, the film mostly reaches the glaring social critiques its strains for.” – Paste Magazine Feb 18, 2021 Full Review
