Julieta (2016)

7/10
EDIT
“Despite its flaws and compromises, though, there are enough intriguing elements to make a second engagement with Almodvar's latest a fairly appealing prospect.” –

I, Daniel Blake (2016)
92%
6/10
EDIT
“I, Daniel Blake undoubtedly has its heart in the right place; it's a shame that Loach and Laverty's good intentions haven't resulted, in the end, in better cinema.” –

Toni Erdmann (2016)
93%
5/10
EDIT
“Toni Erdmann is a painfully drawn out and rather limp piece of work that dribbles on shapelessly until Ade finally stops the show by having the male protagonist bluntly sum up the movie's message at the end.” –

Summertime (2015)

The Daughter (2015)

4/10
EDIT
“By its excruciating final scenes, The Daughter looks less like the "searing modern tragedy" it's been billed as and more like an art-conscious episode of Neighbours.” –

EDIT
“shetu's superb performance, and the film's portrait of an immigrant community seldom seen on screen before, means that Red Leaves lingers with the viewer.” –

The Invitation (2015)
90%
6/10
EDIT
“If the pay-off's not quite as satisfying as the lead-up, Kusama's confident handling of this odd little huis clos makes the movie an enjoyable ride, for the most part.” –

Youth (2015)
72%
EDIT
“Mannerism and pretension are offset by humour and a surprising amount of humanity here, making Youth a memorable (and finally affirmative) meditation on ageing and art.” –
