Art for Everybody (2023) 100% 8/10 EDIT ““Art For Everybody” stands as a thoughtful, empathetic portrait of a talented artist struggling to find his place in the world, making his story of brilliance and brokenness feel universal.” – Next Best Picture Nov 8, 2025 Full Review Coexistence, My Ass! (2025) 92% 6/10 EDIT ““Coexistence, My Ass!” provides us with a front-row seat to these struggles, and despite its unfocused nature, it’s impactful enough to leave a lasting impression.” – Next Best Picture Oct 31, 2025 Full Review Dead of Winter (2025) 75% 7/10 EDIT “Without Thompson, it would be a solid genre exercise. With her, it becomes something far more impactful: a showcase of endurance, empathy, and the kind of heroine we rarely see in action films – resourceful, untrained, yet deeply human.” – Next Best Picture Sep 26, 2025 Full Review Drowning Dry (2024) 80% 5/10 EDIT “Despite moments of promise, “Drowning Dry“ lacks narrative cohesion and emotional resonance. The title may gesture at quiet devastation, but for the viewer, the experience feels more numbing than profound.” – Next Best Picture Jul 18, 2025 Full Review Dear Ms.: A Revolution in Print (2025) 94% 7/10 EDIT “Like Ms. itself, the documentary is complicated, messy, and sometimes lacking nuance, making it a worthy watch and an ode to print journalism at a time when the digital world has taken over.” – Next Best Picture Jun 16, 2025 Full Review She Dances (2025) 8/10 EDIT “Regardless of its predictable nature, “She Dances” is easy to like, thanks to its performances, impressive camera work, and smart script.” – Next Best Picture Jun 13, 2025 Full Review Rosemead (2025) 89% 7/10 EDIT “Lin has packed a great deal into the film's 97-minute runtime, yet it mostly successfully depicts these weighty subjects in an impactful, sensitive manner, anchored by Lucy Liu's powerful central performance.” – Next Best Picture Jun 6, 2025 Full Review Pets (2025) 82% 6/10 EDIT ““Pets” is heartwarming, personal, and uplifting – even when dealing with pet loss, either due to old age or health. Still, it’s unclear why some stories seem more personalized and in-depth than others.” – Next Best Picture Apr 11, 2025 Full Review Mountain Queen: The Summits of Lhakpa Sherpa (2023) 100% 8/10 EDIT ““Mountain Queen” doesn’t necessarily reinvent the genre, but it’s hard not to be inspired by Lhakpa Sherpa — a survivor in every sense of the word — and her awe for the mountain she views as a deity.” – Next Best Picture Nov 27, 2024 Full Review Weekend in Taipei (2024) 52% 6/10 EDIT “If you’re a fan of the genre, “Weekend in Taipei“ offers a fun ride. It has explosive stunts, an ample amount of blood and gore, a bit of romance, and enough adrenaline to make for an enjoyable, if flawed, viewing experience.” – Next Best Picture Nov 8, 2024 Full Review Lonely Planet (2024) 39% 5/10 EDIT ““Lonely Planet” is a visually pleasing film that offers moments of charm to keep you engaged, but the romantic arc feels half-baked, and the supposedly shocking or surprising twists do not land at all.” – Next Best Picture Oct 10, 2024 Full Review Slingshot (2024) 38% 6/10 EDIT “It's a perfectly acceptable genre piece worth watching for the performances and, especially, the ending, which might make you think it's deeper than it actually is.” – Next Best Picture Aug 26, 2024 Full Review Find Me Falling (2024) 43% 4/10 EDIT “Utterly forgettable, and the story is riddled with cliches. None of the performances stand out, and Harry Connick Jr. is fairly bland as a lead.” – Next Best Picture Jul 22, 2024 Full Review Following Harry (2024) 7/10 EDIT “Despite the flaws present in “Following Harry,” it still presents Belafonte as an admirable figure who just happened to be a celebrity. He used his platform to advocate for various causes and encouraged others to do the same.” – Next Best Picture Jun 24, 2024 Full Review Toy Story 3 (2010) 98% 10/10 EDIT “What also makes “Toy Story 3” a terrific entry in Pixar’s filmography is how much it can be enjoyed regardless of age and regardless of one’s familiarity with the previous two films.” – Next Best Picture Jun 14, 2024 Full Review The Dead Don't Hurt (2023) 86% 5/10 EDIT “While the film features solid performances and direction, the end result is still mediocre at best” – Next Best Picture May 31, 2024 Full Review Unfrosted (2024) 39% 5/10 EDIT “While there are some chuckles to be had, entertaining performances from the large cast, and a few memorable cameos, Seinfeld's film is too ridiculous, cliche-ridden, and busy for its own good.” – Next Best Picture May 3, 2024 Full Review Riddle Of Fire (2023) 79% 5/10 EDIT “Ultimately, “Riddle of Fire” may be too quirky for its own good. It’s the kind of film that requires you to vibe with it by the time the story gets going, and if you don’t, you’re probably not on its wavelength.” – Next Best Picture Mar 22, 2024 Full Review Scrambled (2023) 94% 7/10 EDIT “Even though the tonal shifts from comedy to drama aren’t seamless, the film’s heartfelt nature is an unexpected delight.” – Next Best Picture Feb 5, 2024 Full Review I.S.S. (2023) 61% 6/10 EDIT “Despite the more-than-capable cast’s best efforts, “I.S.S.” fails to engage throughout and almost wastes its premise.” – Next Best Picture Jan 29, 2024 Full Review In the Rearview (2023) 100% 7/10 EDIT ““20 Days in Mariupol” – has received more praise and notice, but Hamela’s film is worth a watch, too. Of course, “20 Days in Mariupol” is much more harrowing on the ground, so “In the Rearview” is comparatively less impactful due to its very nature.” – Next Best Picture Jan 10, 2024 Full Review Society of the Snow (2023) 90% 4.75/5 EDIT “A gripping survival story filled with emotional moments and impressive technical elements.” – Tell-Tale TV Jan 9, 2024 Full Review He Went That Way (2023) 26% 3/10 EDIT “With a more gifted filmmaker (and writer), this story could’ve been something really fascinating. Alas, the direction and messy script fall short.” – Next Best Picture Jan 5, 2024 Full Review She Came to Me (2023) 48% 4/10 EDIT “And, yet, not even this talented trio can save "She Came to Me" from being neither romantic nor comedic, with plenty of unmemorable dialogue, characters, and scenes.” – Next Best Picture Oct 6, 2023 Full Review birth/rebirth (2023) 95% 8/10 EDIT “Even though “Birth/Rebirth” contains elements of predictability, it packs a lot of material into its 98-minute runtime. It’s a solid horror and sci-fi genre mashup featuring a singular vision from a more-than-capable new director.” – Next Best Picture Aug 18, 2023 Full Review
