Love & Other Crimes (2025) EDIT “One of the strengths of Love & Other Crimes is that this has happened to everyone: that awkward high school reunion, transformed into a friendship of proximity and shared situations of adulting. ” – MovieJawn Dec 4, 2025 Full Review Murder at the Embassy (2025) EDIT “Murder at the Embassy plods through its lukewarm revelations. The central mystery has neither legs nor an interesting follow-through, and its low-key nature suffers from slow pacing. ” – MovieJawn Nov 16, 2025 Full Review The French Italian (2024) 67% EDIT “ With a wonderfully acerbic tone and satisfying punches from its cast of characters, The French Italian encapsulates what lessons the small inconveniences of life can – or very much can’t – teach a person about themselves.” – MovieJawn Oct 14, 2025 Full Review Viva Verdi! (2024) EDIT “Russo’s steady directorial hand takes care not to overload the film with excess sentimentality or maudlin narrative about the reality of the situation, which is that many of the musicians are near death. ” – MovieJawn Oct 14, 2025 Full Review Among Neighbors (2024) EDIT “The documentary works best when it performs meticulous tracking of this history of Jewish life, up to its tragic destruction through the dual lens of the Polish gentiles who saw it happen alongside Jewish survivors of the Holocaust in Gniewoszów.” – MovieJawn Oct 14, 2025 Full Review Ju Dou (1990) 100% EDIT “ In the end, Ju Dou (both character and film) understands that it’s the oppressive system – symbolized by this house and its workings – that destroyed them all. ” – MovieJawn Oct 6, 2025 Full Review Trains (2024) EDIT “Trains invites the enterprising traveler to really, critically think about their circumstances and a recurring shot throughout the film keeps this thought in the viewer’s head far after the credits have rolled.” – MovieJawn Oct 6, 2025 Full Review Chaperone (2024) 100% EDIT “The joy in the end is debating the moral ambiguities, and Chaperone provides opportunities for that in spades.” – MovieJawn Sep 11, 2025 Full Review We Strangers (2024) 89% EDIT “Anu Valia's directorial hand is consistently playful; framing Ray through mirrors, freely using split screens, and washing the characters in kaleidoscopes of color that all provide unique touches to the familiar tropes and plot beats of domestic thrillers” – MovieJawn Sep 11, 2025 Full Review Pools (2025) 78% EDIT “The best parts of this film are these long sequences of the group actually swimming around talking, totally at ease inside the various pools. Kennedy, especially, seems to enter another dimension when she passes through the water. ” – MovieJawn Aug 29, 2025 Full Review To a Land Unknown (2024) 98% EDIT “To A Land Unknown takes a third option in its gloomy ambiguity and firmly holds to the principle of the true buddy film. The protagonists may be hustlers, but the film makes it clear: the real long con is mutual survival.” – MovieJawn Aug 19, 2025 Full Review Osiris (2025) 50% EDIT “Every battle can be fought with either regular machine guns or alien machine guns, and it’s a good thing there’s so many of the latter lying around, for the endless shoot-out scenes on a ship whose floor plan has ceased to be memorable.” – MovieJawn Aug 19, 2025 Full Review Four Letters of Love (2024) 44% EDIT “Four Letters of Love is a quiet, pulsing drama rich with complexity—a testament to not only its literary origins, but how well the original poetic lyricism, spirituality, and philosophy all come across on screen.” – MovieJawn Aug 19, 2025 Full Review Il Dono (2003) EDIT “The film, which was originally released in 2003 and is almost entirely silent, does not have a conventional narrative, instead capturing moments in time and companionship in a kind of extended photography picture, a literal motion picture of life. ” – MovieJawn Aug 19, 2025 Full Review All That's Left of You (2025) 100% EDIT “Dabis showcases the foundation of generational stories and conflicts in real time, how unkind words and whispered insults are oftentimes the only defense of the oppressed, and how families are made to turn against each other.” – MovieJawn Aug 19, 2025 Full Review Snoopy Presents: A Summer Musical (2025) 80% EDIT “The message is simple, maybe even simplistic, but sincere all the same. And perhaps the real soothing balm in these incredibly bleak times is seeing an uncomplicated story of the little guy coming out on top.” – MovieJawn Aug 11, 2025 Full Review Who Killed Teddy Bear? (1965) EDIT “Even without revealing the film’s many twists and turns, the explicit—and yes, exploitative—way Teddy Bear treats many up-until-then taboo issues is a marvel to behold.” – MovieJawn Aug 9, 2025 Full Review The Musicians (2025) EDIT “All in all, Les Musiciens is driven by a great combination of screenplay, character work, and soundtrack that brings out the wonderful interplay between human psychology and the process of creating great art.” – MovieJawn Aug 9, 2025 Full Review My Mother's Wedding (2023) 41% EDIT “Even the punch of a climactic emotional confrontation is drowned in overly preachy and direct platitudes about family and moving on, the raucous entanglements all blending together. ” – MovieJawn Aug 9, 2025 Full Review
