Regretting You (2025) Denise Zubizarreta Allison Williams brings a deeply satisfying energy to Morgan: the overly stressed, underappreciated, ignored adult who has finally reached her limit. It’s grown teen mom energy in its fully evolved form. Not bitter, not cruel – but done.

Eternity (2025) Denise Zubizarreta Eternity understands something rare: love does not weaken because it changes. It changes because survival demands it.

C-
The Gallerist (2026) Denise Zubizarreta I couldn’t shake the feeling that 'The Gallerist' is performing rebellion while secretly terrified of offending the very system it wants to mock. Which is, in its own way, the film’s most accurate reflection of the art world.

Mickey 17 (2025) Denise Zubizarreta Mickey 17 doesn’t predict the future. It documents the present with just enough exaggeration to make denial impossible. In doing so, it joins the small but vital lineage of science fiction that understands its real subject is not technology, but power.

Cleopatra’s Final Secret (2025) Angélica Escobar About more than a tomb. It is about reclaiming the story of a woman erased and rewritten by her conquerors. Cleopatra’s intellect and leadership were long overshadowed by Roman propaganda that painted her as a seductress rather than a strategist.

Brownsville Bred (2025) Lola Rosario "Brownsville Bred' is [writer/director] Del Valle’s love letter to her heritage, and also to the Latine community as a collective.

The Librarians (2025) Cristina Escobar Where many of the protagonists of "The Librarians" live, democracy is no longer in fashion. But these women didn’t agree to that change, and they’re fighting back, holding the line in their particular sphere of influence – and that’s an inspiration.

Frankenstein (2025) Kathia Woods The brilliance of Del Toro’s film lies in its portrayal of the hypocrisy within the experiment, particularly regarding Victor.

I'm Still Here (2024) J. Don Birnam By the time the credits roll, I’m Still Here leaves an emotional imprint about the importance of not forgetting the atrocities of the past and the power we have to overcome them.

Purple Hearts (2022) Ces Heredia I wanted to like “Purple Hearts,” but this Netflix film isn’t a feel-good love story. It’s just right-wing propaganda.
Posted Sep 02, 2025  Edit critic review
Down the Rabbit Hole (2024) Carolina Alvarado Richly explores issues of atypical childhood, identity formation, and the privileges and complexities of living in a world ruled by drug trafficking. It also sheds light on the fragmented legacies that parents can pass on to their children.
Posted Sep 02, 2025  Edit critic review
Emilia Pérez (2024) Ces Heredia Emilia Pérez is trash. No, I don’t care that it’s been nominated for thirteen Academy Awards and won a few Golden Globes. Yes, this is the hill I, a Mexican, have chosen to die on.

Undercover (2024) Lola Rosario Throughout the film I kept wondering: Is there something the director Arantxa Echevarría and her team intentionally omitted?
Posted Sep 01, 2025  Edit critic review
The Brutalist (2024) Edgary Rodríguez R. The Brutalist recreates the immigrant’s journey in a devastating and frank way... [exploring] how people and countries, especially the United States, have uncomfortable histories with immigrants.

Your Monster (2024) Cristina Escobar The film is smart about the ways anger intersects with femininity, but I do wish we’d gotten some hints about how to use anger constructively and not be consumed by it.
Posted Sep 01, 2025  Edit critic review
Picture This (2025) Sofía Aguilar With South Asian women in front and behind the camera, “Picture This” is the type of representation we love, even if the film is imperfect.
Posted Sep 01, 2025  Edit critic review
The Fishbowl (2023) Nicola Schulze A stunning meditation on the themes of cancer, colonialism, and climate disaster, all intertwined with the strong bonds of family and community.
Posted Sep 01, 2025  Edit critic review
Uvalde Mom (2025) Sarah M. Vasquez [A] heartbreaking and infuriating to watch as it shows the police response (or lack thereof) and how the parents were treated on campus.
Posted Sep 01, 2025  Edit critic review
Selena y Los Dinos (2025) Sarah M. Vasquez I was skeptical when I learned about the documentary, “Selena y Los Dinos,” thinking there couldn’t be anything left to tell. I was wrong.

Disney's Snow White (2025) Angélica Escobar Disney tried to modernize a classic, but instead of celebrating that evolution, critics zeroed in on Zegler, blaming her for changes she didn’t control.
Posted Sep 01, 2025  Edit critic review
Freaky Tales (2024) Cristina Escobar If there’s one thing we need, it’s a gory revenge fantasy against white supremacists. Enter “Freaky Tales.”

Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One (2023) Carolina Alvarado “Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning” stands as a tribute to both Tom Cruise’s Ethan Hunt and the long-running, thriving saga.
Posted Sep 01, 2025  Edit critic review
Esta Isla (2025) Sofía Viera From its score to its script, “Esta Isla” masterfully captures life in Puerto Rico while building our own mythic language.
Posted Sep 01, 2025  Edit critic review
Materialists (2025) Angélica Escobar The film claims to be about realism, but the real world doesn’t reward women for giving up everything in the name of love. It punishes them.
Posted Sep 01, 2025  Edit critic review
The Phoenician Scheme (2025) Lola Rosario The dark comedy/drama adventure film shines by stretching the limits of impossibility to sheer incredulity.
Posted Sep 01, 2025  Edit critic review
Homem com H (2025) Lívia Reim The film smartly parallels the storyline Ney’s dangerous relationship and the state of the country.
Posted Sep 01, 2025  Edit critic review
28 Years Later (2025) Edgary Rodríguez R. The film explores life and death from an unusually intimate, almost philosophical perspective. It’s a complex look at the human condition, family relationships, and the fragility of community when society no longer exists.
Posted Sep 01, 2025  Edit critic review
No Other Land (2024) Lola Rosario Palestinians’ unfathomable pain breaks my heart over and over again – and “No Other Land” tells their story with heartbreaking clarity.
Posted Sep 01, 2025  Edit critic review
My Oxford Year (2025) Sofía Aguilar Not only is this just sappy, bad writing... but it also sends the message that it’d be better for a disabled person to die than to live out the rest of their lives with a disability.

Bob Trevino Likes It (2024) Cristina Escobar In some ways, Bob Trevino Likes It is a small, personal film about the quotidian ways we fail each other. There are no superheroes or chase scenes. No political upheavals or world events... But it’s not a small film. It brims with emotion.

Happy Gilmore 2 (2025) Angélica Escobar Will this go down as one of Sandler’s best? Probably not. But I will be quoting “Do you want breadsticks?” and “I’m shifty” for a long time for a long time.

Heads of State (2025) Denise Zubizarreta Watching the leaders of the UK and US navigate coups, surveillance leaks, and rogue assassins might be entertaining – if it didn’t feel like a press conference away from becoming reality.

B+
Death of a Unicorn (2025) Denise Zubizarreta HBO Max’s and A24’s Death of a Unicorn, a glittery, gory satire that sinks its horn straight into the rotten heart of capitalist greed.

Your Monster (2024) Denise Zubizarreta Women aren’t just taught to suppress their anger, we’re also taught to fear our wants. And this movie plays with that beautifully. Her connection with the monster isn’t just about rage, it’s about passion.

A+
Salt of the Earth (1954) Denise Zubizarreta Salt of the Earth embodies many ideals, and chief among them is this: reclaiming authorship over our stories asserts the meaning inherent in our own lives. More than ever, we need art told from our point of view.

I Was Octomom: The Natalie Suleman Story (2025) Denise Zubizarreta I Was Octomom finally gives Natalie what she was never allowed in 2009: context. Not excuses, but truth. It lets her speak for herself in a world that only wants to speak over her.

Atlas (2024) Denise Zubizarreta Atlas is predictable which can be seen as a good and a bad thing. I’m not going to rewatch it incessantly like some of my other favorite sci-fi flicks and you’re most likely not going to either.

The Mysterious Gaze of the Flamingo (2025) Kathia Woods There have been countless films on the AIDS epidemic, but The Mysterious Gaze of the Flamingo by Diego Céspedes provides a distinct perspective, emphasizing humor, family, and, most importantly, love.

Sinners (2025) DarkSkyLady Set in Clarksdale, Mississippi, in 1932, Sinners is a fun vampire flick that expands into a more profound exploration of racism, community, and what signifies freedom.
Posted Apr 18, 2025  Edit critic review
A Sloth Story (2024) DarkSkyLady Ultimately, A Sloth Story teaches appreciation – for family, culture, history, and being in the moment with those who matter. It’s a fun and, at times, creepy film – zoomie zombies! – that everyone can appreciate.
Posted Feb 27, 2025  Edit critic review
The Monkey (2025) DarkSkyLady Although The Monkey tries to delve into comedic shock, its tedious dialogue, mixed-bag performances, and bland special effects make this little else but splatter entertainment.
Posted Feb 22, 2025  Edit critic review
Kiss of the Spider Woman (2025) Cristina Escobar For all its weirdness "Kiss of the Spider Woman" is ultimately a triumph about the ways we love art, each other, and ourselves. It’s the queer Latinx musical we’ve been needing.
Posted Feb 01, 2025  Edit critic review
The Fire Inside (2024) DarkSkyLady With stellar performances that deserve recognition and awards, The Fire Inside lights up the screen as much as it lights a fire in viewers’ hearts.
Posted Dec 25, 2024  Edit critic review
High Tide (2024) DarkSkyLady High Tide is sweet, sad, and optimistic as it crafts the story of a heartbroken, undocumented gay man at a hopeless standstill. Beauty and quiet pain build to a crescendo in this worthwhile if disjointed SXSW film about moving forward.
Posted Nov 05, 2024  Edit critic review
Omni Loop (2024) DarkSkyLady With a witty, nuanced cast, fantastic direction, and music that elevates the quirk, Omni Loop is a delightful, teary surprise that deserves accolades.
Posted Sep 20, 2024  Edit critic review
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024) DarkSkyLady Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, the long-awaited sequel of the ghost with the most, delivers comedic beats despite some tonal misfires. It’s not so much bad as it is commitment-shy, as reticent and scared as shrunken-head Bob.
