House of Gucci (2021) Deirdre Crimmins At two hours and 38 minutes, the film shuffles along at its own pace, but it's still enough campy fun to earn our attention.

The Power of the Dog (2021) Deirdre Crimmins The Power of the Dog is a cinematic triumph; one of the best films of 2021. It is vivid, intriguing, contemplative, entertaining, and capped off with one of the most discussable endings in recent memory.

The Beta Test (2021) Deirdre Crimmins The Beta Test is an entertaining exercise in watching a self-involved Hollywood player slowly come to the realization that he is neither all-powerful nor all-knowing.

Dear Evan Hansen (2021) Deirdre Crimmins Fans of the Broadway show may have enough affection for the theatrical experience to buoy them while watching Dear Evan Hansen, but new audiences watching the film will be met with a confounding and unsuccessful adaptation.

Yakuza Princess (2021) Deirdre Crimmins In trying to be too many things, Yakuza Princess never fully develops the emotional world of its characters, yet it expects the audience to care about their family history.

Pig (2021) Deirdre Crimmins Pig is a strange, heartbreaking, sometimes funny art-house winner that moves us with its message of love and loss.

Werewolves Within (2021) Deirdre Crimmins Combining a classic whodunit with werewolves may seem like an awkward fit. But in Werewolves Within, the two elements complement each other, resulting in a hilarious, bloody blend that avoids feeling bloated or tonally confused.

Plan B (2021) Deirdre Crimmins Director Natalie Morales shapes Plan B's subtle politics into a badge of pride in a film that is funny, smart, and willing to get comfortably uncomfortable with its complicated subjects.

The Columnist (2020) Deirdre Crimmins Bloody fun turns swiftly into an examination of the power of voice and the line between good guys and bad guys.
Posted Jun 05, 2021  Edit critic review
Together Together (2021) Deirdre Crimmins Both performances are unguarded and poignant. Harrison's acting shouts volumes in the midst of this quiet film, and shines as she reacts to Matt's overeager but well-meaning nature.
Posted May 10, 2021  Edit critic review
In The Earth (2021) Deirdre Crimmins Blending folk horror, environmental anxiety, and good old-fashioned psychopathy, In the Earth is not your everyday horror film. It's a steady exercise in suspense, filled with slowly growing doom and unforeseeable instability.

Godzilla vs. Kong (2021) Deirdre Crimmins Never are the maneuvers of the battle lost in confusion of bad editing or inexplicably tight framing. It is all there in its indulgent, escapist glory.

Swan Song (2021) Deirdre Crimmins Swan Song is not so fantastical that it is unbelievable, but it is also wholly unconcerned if you believe it or not. That is the purest joy of this film.

The Father (2020) Deirdre Crimmins It is emotionally draining, and its trajectory is tragically unavoidable, but it deserves our attention and admiration.
Posted Mar 13, 2021  Edit critic review
The Sinners (2020) Deirdre Crimmins Director and co-writer Courtney Paige does her best to spin all of this into a high school thriller à la Agatha Christie, however the overall experience of watching The Sinners is disjointed and tedious.
Posted Mar 06, 2021  Edit critic review
Cherry (2021) Deirdre Crimmins Martin Scorsese has honed this subgenre of brittle masculinity and confessional narration throughout his long career... Cherry never quite climbs to that rank, but it is an empathetic look at one man's seemingly inescapable demise.

Minari (2020) Deirdre Crimmins Minari is sweet without being cloying, and allows its audience the time and space to get to know its characters. Such affection is welcome warmth during this cold winter.

The Dig (2021) Deirdre Crimmins Here, the rush to include all of the characters left their individual depth and complications behind, and the scraps are not nearly as rich as they could be.
Posted Jan 29, 2021  Edit critic review
La casa (2019) Deirdre Crimmins La Casa never quite connects the dots between the personal and paranormal. They are parallel, but not compounding.
Posted Jan 22, 2021  Edit critic review
Ammonite (2020) Deirdre Crimmins It is unfair to judge a film for what it does not tell, rather than focusing on what it does. But the story here is not enough, and allows the mind to wander.
Posted Jan 20, 2021  Edit critic review
Happiest Season (2020) Deirdre Crimmins Happiest Season is a solid addition to the legions of heteronormative Christmas movies. Had Harper been a more engaging character or if it focused on what sets it apart from other holiday films, it might have been a great one.
Posted Jan 20, 2021  Edit critic review
Some Kind of Heaven (2020) Deirdre Crimmins It chooses which facets of this niche world to show you through remarkable access to the residents, and with a guiding hand that asks you to draw your own conclusions.

Dinner in America (2020) Deirdre Crimmins Dinner in America is destined to be the preeminent alt-romance of 2020.
