Soul Patrol (2026) B EDIT “Like many Vietnam stories, the film openly contends with the futility of the war, questioning the larger purpose behind it and how it affected these specific men. The film’s greatest strength, then, is in that specificity and its historical corrective.” – The Playlist Jan 26, 2026 Full Review Amoeba (2025) 100% A- EDIT “[The film's] structural waywardness mimics the girls, as Tan lingers on singular scenes and moments sometimes without a sense of cohesion. Of course, it’s a hang-out movie, but it also suggests more is at stake for these girls than self-discovery. ” – The Playlist Sep 10, 2025 Full Review This Is Not a Drill (2025) B- EDIT “... the work that Pearson, Ozane, and Wilson are doing is essential, even more so during the current administration. Despite their projects’ setbacks, one never gets the sense that they will fold in the face of political or social pressure. ” – The Playlist Sep 8, 2025 Full Review A Desert (2024) 83% EDIT “Once the style settles in, we are left with a compelling but frustratingly ambiguous film. ” – The Film Stage May 2, 2025 Full Review Havoc (2025) 64% EDIT “Those looking for something similar to The Raid films will find much to enjoy here. But, it’s also just a lesser version of those movies, leaving one to wonder why Evans returned to the well this time.” – The Film Stage Apr 24, 2025 Full Review Take No Prisoners (2025) B EDIT ““Take No Prisoners” might lean too hard on pathos. But it’s still incredibly watchable and more than a little shocking in the access the filmmakers were given.” – The Playlist Mar 14, 2025 Full Review Seeds (2025) 97% A- EDIT ““Seeds” may be indebted to the elder subjects that Shyne centralizes, but it’s also a film that dares to look forward, suggesting that — despite everything — these farms will continue. ” – The Playlist Feb 14, 2025 Full Review From Ground Zero (2024) 98% A- EDIT “A profound testament to the importance of artistic statements in the face of the day-to-day horrors in Gaza, the omnibus film “From Ground Zero” represents an act of bearing witness. ” – The Playlist Jan 24, 2025 Full Review Flight Risk (2025) 29% C- EDIT “Rather than prove unwatchable––though I would argue its CGI is––Flight Risk is never as fun as it should be.” – The Film Stage Jan 24, 2025 Full Review Treasure (2024) 41% C- EDIT “It’s the type of tragicomedy Sundance used to pump out at a relatively fast pace: both inoffensive and more than a little bland. ” – The Film Stage Jun 14, 2024 Full Review Happy Campers (2023) 100% A- EDIT “Happy Campers sometimes feels like a lark, only glancing at the cycles of capitalism that erase these communities. But it’s nevertheless an emotional exploration of a group on the fringes and how anyone can find a welcoming community.” – The Playlist May 17, 2024 Full Review Babes (2024) 87% B+ EDIT “It might not break new ground, but Babes is nevertheless something quite rare these days: both emotionally complex and hysterical.” – The Film Stage May 15, 2024 Full Review Power (2024) 79% C+ EDIT ““Power” takes on enough content to fill a semester’s worth of material, it’s also never short on ideas, even if those ideas come and go at warp speed.” – The Playlist Jan 20, 2024 Full Review The Goldfinger (2023) 59% C EDIT “While Infernal Affairs spawned Scorsese’s The Departed, Chong seems to reverse his homage, deploying a style that might be described as Wolf of Wall Street-lite. ” – The Film Stage Jan 5, 2024 Full Review Orlando, My Political Biography (2023) 94% A- EDIT “A fully alive film.” – The Playlist Nov 29, 2023 Full Review To Kill a Tiger (2022) 100% A- EDIT “It’s a powerful, infuriating document of a family’s resilience in the face of massive communal pressure.” – The Playlist Oct 31, 2023 Full Review Story Ave (2023) 95% B+ EDIT “Features two powerful performances and acts as a showcase for its first-time director. ” – The Playlist Oct 2, 2023 Full Review Woodland (2023) 83% B+ EDIT “Scharang has crafted a quiet, contemplative film and, in the end, a moving exploration of how the past constantly informs the present.” – The Playlist Sep 12, 2023 Full Review Hollywoodgate (2023) 92% A- EDIT ““Hollywoodgate” trades these more nuanced characterizations for blunt force storytelling, but its nevertheless incredibly effective.” – The Playlist Sep 3, 2023 Full Review Piaffe (2022) 92% B EDIT “Consistently beautiful, watchable, and a truly memorable.” – The Playlist Aug 24, 2023 Full Review Medusa Deluxe (2022) 72% B- EDIT “A bold and energetic debut.” – The Playlist Aug 15, 2023 Full Review Between Two Worlds (2021) 79% C EDIT “Centralizing the moral quandaries of undercover journalism rather than the gig economy the film is ostensibly about, Emmanuel Carrére’s Between Two Worlds often feels at war with itself.” – The Film Stage Aug 11, 2023 Full Review The Beanie Bubble (2023) 46% C- EDIT “Kristin Gore and Damian Kulash’s film takes what, perhaps, should’ve been a three-minute section on “I Love the 90s” and expands it.” – The Playlist Aug 8, 2023 Full Review The Unknown Country (2022) 92% A- EDIT “ Remarkable. ” – The Playlist Aug 8, 2023 Full Review What Comes Around (2022) 32% C- EDIT “Feels a bit like its title — hinting at a complete narrative but only really giving us a half-formed idea.” – The Playlist Aug 8, 2023 Full Review
