Young Mothers (2025) 95% EDIT “Young Mothers is simply just an extension of the prior works by the Dardennes, most of them more revealing, more tense and less outwardly cinematic.” – Spectrum Culture Jan 13, 2026 Full Review All That's Left of You (2025) 100% EDIT “Palestinian-American director Cherien Dabis’ All That’s Left of You is compelling and surprisingly sturdy for a film of this length and subject matter, even if it’s not a very interesting one, all things considered.” – Spectrum Culture Jan 12, 2026 Full Review The Dutchman (2025) 57% EDIT “The Dutchman tries to be many things, but it never feels like anything more than a decent, unfocused Mamet ripoff.” – Spectrum Culture Jan 7, 2026 Full Review Trifole (2024) 77% EDIT “Fabbro has made a film which is by no means a masterpiece, or anything particularly great, yet he has instead managed something perhaps more difficult yet: making a movie that feels genuinely unpredictable. ” – Spectrum Culture Nov 20, 2025 Full Review Kokuho (2025) 100% EDIT “While Kokuho is somewhat unreformed when it comes to narrative structure, it’s at least promising that someone with an eye for grand sweeps is behind the camera for a while. ” – Spectrum Culture Nov 19, 2025 Full Review Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk (2025) 98% EDIT “There are few films that are able to recount such devastation in such excruciating detail, and this one exclusively does it through choppy, 240p recorded video, yet it’s that intimacy that makes it all the more effective in conveying the carnage. ” – Spectrum Culture Nov 6, 2025 Full Review Tenement (2024) EDIT “Tenement is as close to the book as possible, never really diverging from the tropes we’ve come to expect from creepy possession movies. ” – Spectrum Culture Oct 27, 2025 Full Review Mistress Dispeller (2024) 95% EDIT “Mistress Dispeller is an emotionally intimate film, but when intimacy is all that’s really there, it’s hard to give Director Lo props for the film or hold its shortcomings against her. ” – Spectrum Culture Oct 23, 2025 Full Review Israel Palestine on Swedish TV 1958-1989 (2024) 90% EDIT “Films rarely change the world on this scale, yet they can often be empathy machines, and this is one of the most powerful ones of the year. ” – Spectrum Culture Oct 16, 2025 Full Review The Ugly (2024) 53% EDIT “The Ugly takes many of David Fincher’s drab digital trappings and none of its pleasures. ” – Spectrum Culture Oct 2, 2025 Full Review My Sunshine (2024) 88% EDIT “My Sunshine has plenty of charm to go around, and it does have a more striking aesthetic than many low-effort contemporary dramas, particularly those of the feel-good variety. ” – Spectrum Culture Sep 25, 2025 Full Review Dreams (2024) 90% EDIT “A subtle and nuanced look at teenage queer infatuation shies away from transgressive elements. ” – Spectrum Culture Sep 17, 2025 Full Review TORN: The Israel-Palestine Poster War on NYC Streets (2024) EDIT “TORN is so tepid, it’s unclear whether this is a wolf in sheep’s clothing, hiding its power level of pro-Israel sentiments, or if it’s just lackadaisically tone-deaf. ” – Spectrum Culture Sep 11, 2025 Full Review Riefenstahl (2024) 97% EDIT “It’s difficult to say what Andres Veiel’s film really serves to prove beyond making a case against Leni Riefenstahl that has been presented by seemingly everyone for decades. ” – Spectrum Culture Sep 9, 2025 Full Review By the Stream (2024) 100% EDIT “The veteran South Korean filmmaker’s latest is both heavier on its plotting and more obscure in its intentions. ” – Spectrum Culture Aug 14, 2025 Full Review Shoshana (2023) 73% EDIT “A dull, shallow historical thriller, Winterbottom’s film has nothing interesting or subversive to say about Zionism, imperialism or terrorism. ” – Spectrum Culture Jul 28, 2025 Full Review Little, Big, and Far (2024) 80% EDIT “It’s unlikely that Little, Big, and Far will win any new converts who were dissatisfied with Jem Cohen’s previous material, but as an intro to his work, you really can’t go wrong here. ” – Spectrum Culture Jul 17, 2025 Full Review The G (2023) 100% EDIT “Beyond the well-enough paced crime elements and the completely eschewed action elements, there is relatively little to The G beyond The G in question. ” – Spectrum Culture Jul 3, 2025 Full Review Kill the Jockey (2024) 86% EDIT “This feels right at home alongside the other fabulist offerings, but it also comes off as incoherent in ways that are perhaps more interesting in theory than in practice. ” – Spectrum Culture Jul 2, 2025 Full Review Afternoons of Solitude (2024) 88% EDIT “Serra’s distinct lack of overt criticism and mere presentation of contemporary bullfighting more or less succeeds in displaying the violence of the industry, even if it begins to run thin by the end of its runtime. ” – Spectrum Culture Jul 1, 2025 Full Review Familiar Touch (2024) 98% EDIT “It’s a joy to find something as refreshing as Sarah Friedland’s un-melodramatic Familiar Touch, a promising debut full of beaming light and beaming people. ” – Spectrum Culture Jun 26, 2025 Full Review Television Event (2020) 88% EDIT “As an educational piece, despite its limitation in scope, Television Event trudges along as an informative enough doc. As anything requiring contemplation (or even two-dimensionality), it seems entirely uninterested. ” – Spectrum Culture Jun 3, 2025 Full Review Next Sohee (2022) 94% EDIT “Next Sohee intelligently hones in on critiquing the economic system that causes malaise instead of painting a portrait of hostility coming from all directions. ” – Spectrum Culture May 21, 2025 Full Review Henry Johnson (2025) 62% EDIT “David Mamet’s first feature in nearly a decade is evidence that he still knows how to write biting dialogue and block scenes better than most of his contemporaries ” – Spectrum Culture May 13, 2025 Full Review Watch the Skies (2022) 76% EDIT “An AI-assisted Swedish film lacks heart, soul, originality and pretty much everything else. ” – Spectrum Culture May 12, 2025 Full Review
