Entergalactic (2022) 97% EDIT “[The] flashes of the series-that-might-have-been make Entergalactic occasionally frustrating. All that said, what’s available of Entergalactic is frequently intoxicating. ” – Variety Sep 30, 2022 Full Review Wounds (2019) 47% C- EDIT “It's a shame the audience has to wait the entire runtime to see what, in a better film, would have been an inciting event rather than a last-minute stinger.” – AV Club Oct 17, 2019 Full Review Monsters and Men (2018) 84% B EDIT “Green's graceful direction and keen ear for dialogue certainly make him a new filmmaker to watch, and it'll be fascinating to see what he does with a more focused narrative.” – AV Club Sep 28, 2018 Full Review Blaze (2018) 95% B+ EDIT “Blaze feels like a true passion project, an engine running on Hawke's endless supply of enthusiasm for his subject.” – AV Club Sep 7, 2018 Full Review Monica & David (2009) EDIT “It's a refreshing and rare story for television.” – Newsweek Feb 7, 2018 Full Review Confirmation (2016) 84% B EDIT “With a cast so formidable, it's almost a shame Confirmation isn't a story that could have been expanded to series length. But it's a story worth telling, one about the kind of quiet heroism that doesn't always translate well to the screen.” – AV Club Apr 15, 2016 Full Review A Deadly Adoption (2015) 14% B- EDIT “Adoption is a fun oddity instead of the minor cultural moment it could have been.” – AV Club Jun 22, 2015 Full Review Nightingale (2014) 82% B+ EDIT “A single-character film rests squarely on the shoulders of the actor, and Oyelowo turns in a breathtaking, visceral performance made more impressive by the strenuousness of the role.” – AV Club May 29, 2015 Full Review Whitney (2015) 47% B- EDIT “While the wisdom of Whitney's premise is debatable, Bassett's execution is confident and thoughtful.” – AV Club Jan 20, 2015 Full Review Mr. Dynamite: The Rise of James Brown (2014) 100% A- EDIT “Alex Gibney's Mr. Dynamite: The Rise Of James Brown is an assured threading-of-the-needle, slowly working its way to the sweet spot where the man and the legend overlap.” – AV Club Oct 27, 2014 Full Review
