The Night (2020) 81% B- EDIT “The Night remains an impressive debut from Ahari, a filmmaker with a talent for textures, both visual and sonic.” – AV Club Jan 29, 2021 Full Review Hunter Hunter (2020) 94% B EDIT “It's a jarring journey, filled with twists that snap and sting like bear traps, and an endurance test, too, especially for the squeamish.” – AV Club Dec 18, 2020 Full Review B- EDIT “Wrestlemania 36 will go down as both one of the weirdest Wrestlemanias of all time, but if enduring audience-less wrestling means the company learns how to better utilize its veteran stars, then this experiment was worth it.” – AV Club Apr 7, 2020 Full Review Frankenstein's Monster's Monster, Frankenstein (2019) 89% B EDIT “[D]espite the ego of the theater being a familiar target, the special nevertheless feels fresh in both the specificity of its satire and its surprising cast.” – AV Club Jul 16, 2019 Full Review The Highwaymen (2019) 58% C EDIT “The Highwaymen is most interesting in the all-too-brief moments when Hamer and Gault's legacy is aligned with that of the criminals they're chasing.” – Consequence Mar 19, 2019 Full Review The Day Shall Come (2019) 65% B- EDIT “The Day Shall Come remains a riveting watch, if only for Morris' deft, lightning-fast pace and the cast's mastery of his language.” – Consequence Mar 16, 2019 Full Review The Boy Band Con: The Lou Pearlman Story (2019) 81% B- EDIT “The Boy Band Con is functional and effective in exploring one of the most influential figures in modern music.” – Consequence Mar 14, 2019 Full Review The Art of Self-Defense (2019) 83% B+ EDIT “The Art Of Self-Defense is a singular work, brimming with ideas, by a budding visionary with a hell of a lot to say.” – Consequence Mar 13, 2019 Full Review Booksmart (2019) 96% B+ EDIT “Sex, drugs, and peril flood just about every turn, each of which pivots at a manic, sweaty pace that deftly mirrors the giddily nervous energy of its leads.” – Consequence Mar 11, 2019 Full Review The Peanut Butter Falcon (2019) 95% B EDIT “The Peanut Butter Falcon's tale traverses a well-worn foundation, but this riff on the road movie is both distinctly modern and bracingly optimistic.” – Consequence Mar 11, 2019 Full Review Us (2019) 93% B EDIT “The direction here is downright balletic, the camera jerking and swooping with a defined purpose. Every frame bursts with detail, whether it's a thematic dovetail or a murky figure sprinting into the periphery.” – AV Club Mar 9, 2019 Full Review Ánimas (2018) 57% B- EDIT “Ánimas moves at a breathless pace, making its moments of careful escalation that much more impactful.” – Consequence Jan 28, 2019 Full Review Bird Box (2018) 64% C- EDIT “Some things are best left unsaid. Some are best left unseen. And some are best left being books.” – Consequence Dec 22, 2018 Full Review The American Meme (2018) 92% C EDIT “The American Meme is by no means comprehensive, with filmmaker Bert Marcus opting for a character-based approach rather than a cultural one.” – Consequence Dec 10, 2018 Full Review Anna and the Apocalypse (2017) 77% C+ EDIT “Anna and the Apocalypse is a novelty that will undoubtedly become sleepover fodder for years to come.” – Consequence Nov 29, 2018 Full Review Shoplifters (2018) 99% B+ EDIT “Kore-eda manages to turn the family's boxy, claustrophobic living quarters into a refuge, and the film's buoyant soundtrack exudes more whimsy than woe.” – Consequence Nov 23, 2018 Full Review Cam (2018) 93% B EDIT “In a trim 90 minutes, CAM channels familiar modern anxieties associated with identify theft, doxxing, social media superficiality, and, yes, even the horror of dealing with customer service.” – Consequence Nov 16, 2018 Full Review Hunter Killer (2018) 38% D+ EDIT “Hunter Killer has thrills, but they're of the cheapest variety.” – Consequence Oct 25, 2018 Full Review 22 July (2018) 80% A- EDIT “It's easy to ask "Why?" with a movie like this, but the truth is that, by virtue of their impact, events like the attacks of July 22nd can't be ignored.” – Consequence Oct 10, 2018 Full Review Slice (2018) 52% C+ EDIT “It might be sloppy, but you'll be damned if it don't still taste good.” – Consequence Sep 11, 2018 Full Review A Prayer Before Dawn (2017) 92% B- EDIT “The director isn't concerned with the trappings of the genre, so much as he is with Billy's physical experience.” – Consequence Aug 8, 2018 Full Review Extinction (2018) 32% D EDIT “Extinction would have been a much more enjoyable experience had it distinguished itself in its early going, as opposed to its back half.” – Consequence Jul 27, 2018 Full Review Unfriended: Dark Web (2018) 60% EDIT “It is impressive, though, the way the movie works to incorporate new online phenomenons, from Bitcoin to swatting. The latter bit, especially, resonates as one of the film's most unsettling elements, if only because it feels so depressingly possible.” – Consequence Jul 24, 2018 Full Review The Equalizer 2 (2018) 52% C+ EDIT “The Equalizer 2 never comes close to the delicious highs of like-minded flicks like Taken or John Wick, but Fuqua does improve upon the sloppy, poorly lit squabbles of the original.” – Consequence Jul 18, 2018 Full Review How It Ends (2018) 17% C- EDIT “It's always just a bit too easy to see the writer's hand at work, which serves to undercut immersion and identification.” – Consequence Jul 14, 2018 Full Review
