See You When I See You (2026) 64% EDIT “A touching, heartfelt dramedy.” – Moveable Fest Jan 28, 2026 Full Review Take Me Home (2026) EDIT “Throughout Liz Sargent's heartrending debut," the basic routines of everyday life can be appreciated for how daunting they might be when the body or mind fail you as well as the grace that the people around to lend their support to prevent catastrophe.” – Moveable Fest Jan 27, 2026 Full Review Night Nurse (2026) EDIT “When there’s a great deal of tension generated from what can be known by the characters at their age, whether young or old, the one comfort the film provides throughout is knowing you’re in exceptionally skilled and assured hands yourself.” – Moveable Fest Jan 27, 2026 Full Review American Doctor (2026) EDIT “"American Doctor" is told with the urgency that the humanitarian crisis requires and for all the destruction it depicts, it builds an undeniable portrait of a systematic elimination of an entire culture.” – Moveable Fest Jan 26, 2026 Full Review The Shitheads (2026) 60% EDIT “Perhaps a little less audacious than its title might suggest but wonderfully amusing nonetheless, the "I Don’t Feel at Home in This World Anymore" director once again asks how average people might behave if caught up in a world of crime.” – Moveable Fest Jan 26, 2026 Full Review Bedford Park (2026) 90% EDIT “Ahn’s debut may be about how hard it is to see promise in anything once again after a lifetime of heartbreaks, small and big, but it’s easy to see it all over her raw yet radiant drama.” – Moveable Fest Jan 25, 2026 Full Review Nuisance Bear  (2026) EDIT “An unexpected rumination on colonialism and immigration that may be more effective than most when it just hits differently.” – Moveable Fest Jan 25, 2026 Full Review The Lake (2026) EDIT “It certainly is of great concern that the lake could erode, but the film powerfully reflects what truly should be feared is end of an open dialogue.” – Moveable Fest Jan 24, 2026 Full Review The Oldest Person in the World (2026) 100% EDIT “The biggest compliment that could be paid is that it doesn’t waste a second of your time when it conveys just how precious it is.” – Moveable Fest Jan 24, 2026 Full Review Hot Water (2026) EDIT “"Hot Water" feels like a product of hard-won wisdom, but couldn’t be a smoother or more pleasurable ride.” – Moveable Fest Jan 24, 2026 Full Review Filipiñana (2026) EDIT “Manuel’s ability to leave an impression within the film extends to leaving one far beyond with a striking feature debut where individual frames can speak to centuries.” – Moveable Fest Jan 24, 2026 Full Review Ha-Chan, Shake Your Booty! (2026) 91% EDIT “In taking such an vivacious approach [to the grief process], it’s hard either for [the lead character] or an audience to linger on death too much when so much life is happening right in front of you.” – Moveable Fest Jan 23, 2026 Full Review Hanging by a Wire (2026) EDIT “For all the obstacles overcome in remarkable ways in "Hanging by a Wire," getting people to care outside of Buttongay emerges as one of the most difficult of all, but the film itself has no such trouble.” – Moveable Fest Jan 23, 2026 Full Review American Pachuco: The Legend of Luis Valdez (2026) EDIT “The galvanizing power of art isn’t only illustrated in "American Pachuco," but intimately felt when the biography has plenty of panache to get its story of the groundbreaking Chicano artist across. ” – Moveable Fest Jan 22, 2026 Full Review A Place of Absence (2025) EDIT “An impressive way to create a presence for those who have gone missing, not only asserting their place on the record, but fleshing them out as more than statistics.” – Moveable Fest Nov 30, 2025 Full Review Nuns vs. The Vatican (2025) EDIT “Amongst all that "Nuns Vs. the Vatican" exposes, it’s that those made to feel marginalized have power too.” – Moveable Fest Nov 29, 2025 Full Review Artists in Residence (2025) EDIT “It isn’t just the three getting their due in "Artists in Residence" that makes it such a moving portrait, but that it really does give a full picture of how creativity wasn’t limited to any one part of their lives.” – Moveable Fest Nov 18, 2025 Full Review Flophouse America (2025) EDIT “Time spent with a family in a modern-day tenement house exposes the inescapable despair of living on the margins in this devastating doc.” – Moveable Fest Nov 16, 2025 Full Review Forelock (2025) EDIT “The gleeful feeling of getting away with something runs throughout the production where colorful costume choices and a great use of Los Angeles locations amount to a great deal of fun.” – Moveable Fest Oct 27, 2025 Full Review Orphan (2025) 63% EDIT “This chronological successor [to "Son of Saul"] reaffirms its director as a generational talent.” – Moveable Fest Oct 27, 2025 Full Review CAMP (2025) 94% EDIT “It wouldn’t be too far off to describe as if “The Craft” were actually made by one of its Wiccan high schoolers, full of dream logic and an endearing aversion to polishing off any of its rough edges.” – Moveable Fest Oct 7, 2025 Full Review Where to Land (2025) EDIT “At a fleet 75 minutes, you’ve got to enjoy “Where to Land" while it lasts as well, but Hartley makes the most of the moment.” – Moveable Fest Oct 7, 2025 Full Review Gavagai (2025) EDIT “The writer/director’s aim is precise as the fictional mounting of the Greek tragedy exposes a number of modern maladies in a cultural climate where empty provocation is plentiful and actual confrontation is avoided at all costs.” – Moveable Fest Oct 2, 2025 Full Review Christy (2025) 67% EDIT “Between Sweeney’s disarming vulnerability and Michôd’s unusual points of emphasis, “Christy” comes across the truth of any great fighter in a singular way - that things are more interesting when the gloves come off.” – Moveable Fest Sep 29, 2025 Full Review Fuck My Son! (2025) 36% EDIT “In a film that could so easily strike one note, it feels as if the writer/director has convened world-class orchestra to play it, creating a fever dream that may be the only place in the film where it feels safe for anyone to surrender.” – Moveable Fest Sep 24, 2025 Full Review
