Napoleon (1927) 87% 8/10 EDIT “In its glory and intermittent absurdity, the stunning Napoléon is more than movie enough.” – PopMatters Aug 5, 2020 Full Review American Honey (2016) 79% 5/10 EDIT “Ultimately, American Honey feels both over-scaled and under-cooked.” – PopMatters Dec 31, 2016 Full Review My Mother (2015) 84% EDIT “With the exception of Turturro's scenes, Moretti's movie is disappointingly bland overall.” – PopMatters Dec 31, 2016 Full Review Tale of Tales (2015) 84% EDIT “Tale of Tales emerges as blissfully enjoyable, and its unevenness becomes part of the wildness of the ride.” – PopMatters Dec 31, 2016 Full Review Julieta (2016) 84% 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.” – PopMatters Dec 31, 2016 Full Review A Bigger Splash (2015) 89% 8/10 EDIT “A Bigger Splash isn't without some shortcomings, then, but the movie is never dull, and I found it to be surprisingly substantial.” – PopMatters Dec 31, 2016 Full Review 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.” – PopMatters Dec 30, 2016 Full Review The BFG (2016) 74% 9/10 EDIT “Spielberg's latest is glorious: an intelligent, rich and huge-hearted family film that's a treat both to look at and to listen to.” – PopMatters Dec 30, 2016 Full Review Neruda (2016) 92% 7/10 EDIT “[An] intriguingly idiosyncratic experience.” – PopMatters Dec 28, 2016 Full Review Back Home (2015) 73% EDIT “The movie stirs all sorts of personal feelings, and the mixture of plainness and flourish in its aesthetic creates a fresh, resonant and absorbing family portrait.” – PopMatters Dec 28, 2016 Full Review The Lobster (2015) 87% EDIT “Alas, the movie loses its assurance in the over-extended second half.” – PopMatters Dec 28, 2016 Full Review 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.” – PopMatters Dec 7, 2016 Full Review Summertime (2015) 91% 8/10 EDIT “Corsini judges her ending perfectly here, building the drama to a heart-rendingly poignant final that's truly worthy of this most beautiful and believable of love stories.” – PopMatters Jul 18, 2016 Full Review The Daughter (2015) 77% 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.” – PopMatters Apr 12, 2016 Full Review Red Leaves (2014) 7/10 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.” – PopMatters Apr 12, 2016 Full Review Desierto - Border Sniper (2015) 64% 3/10 EDIT “Cuarón has produced a work that's as reductive as it is offensive.” – PopMatters Apr 12, 2016 Full Review 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.” – PopMatters Feb 26, 2016 Full Review Sweet Bean (2015) 84% EDIT “As modest as its moniker, the movie is delightful, unfashionably earnest and, at its best, very moving.” – PopMatters Sep 16, 2015 Full Review One Floor Below (2015) 83% EDIT “A gripping, enigmatic drama about responsibility and moral choice.” – PopMatters Sep 16, 2015 Full Review 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.” – PopMatters Sep 14, 2015 Full Review
